    Adjacent to the heart of downtown Fullerton (where street parking and lot parking is free on…read moreSundays), this cool little comic book store offers a decent mix of new and old comics. The staff was very knowledgeable about comics and eager to banter about them. Prices are slightly high but the selection is top notch. The walls are covered in original fantasy/sci fi art and the bathroom walls are 360 degrees decorated with cool posters. In the back of the store are tables and comfy couches for gamers to gather and play.

    Love this spot! After going around seven different comic stores in the area and feeling very…read morediscouraged and disappointed at each one, I came to Comic Book Hideout seeking just one thing: Winter Soldier comics. I was at my wit's end. Several other comic stores didn't have any in stock, were closed on their supposed "open" hours, or just had the worst customer service. I had just spent an entire day going to different comic shops, getting ignored or dismissed by employees... and then I found Comic Book Hideout. Not only did they HAVE Winter Soldier comics, an employee (Nate?) went above and beyond to sort through every box to find me issues that even had the barest minimum of Bucky Barnes cameo. The issues were in great quality and reasonably priced, too. I even managed to find another elusive issue here that I've been hunting online for MONTHS. Comic Book Hideout felt like a reward after all the suffering and frustration I endured at all the other, neighboring comic shops in the area. Save yourself the trouble and just make this place your number one pick. Their selections and friendly customer service are unmatched, at least in a 25 mile radius around it!

    To be honest, dear reader, I am not an avid comic book reader! While I do enjoy the superhero…read moremovies that come along each year, and I do casually read certain runs, or listen to explanations of certain comics via Comics Explained, I do not keep up with this medium as consistently as I do with Video Games. The only run that I have kept up with on a consistent basis is the Sonic the Hedgehog comics, both the Archie run (slightly before Ian Flynn would take over) and the IDW run as I am a huge fan of Sonic. Due to this, I do like to visit a comic book store every once-in-a-while, and this is my #1 spot! I found out about this nice little spot back in 2006 or 2007 as after learning about the Archie run via the Sonic Mega Collection, I wanted to start reading these comics. I noticed this place from time to time in my family's travels to Bellflower and asked my Mother to take me one day. I stopped going for a long time, not because of any specific negative reason, but just because they stopped selling the Sonic run. Since Sonic is the only comic book that I read, I had no reason to return. I did find out about places like Pulp Fiction, but I found that the customer service was consistently not up to par and eventually stopped going. Last year, during Free Comic Book Day, I wanted to stop by a Comic Book Store in order to pick up some of the free comic books. I first went to Amazing Comics & Cards, but found the selection to be very limited and a similar problem of the customer service being poor. I went here after so long to see if they were participating in Free Comic Book Day, and luckily enough, they were! Going in, it is still majorly organized as I remember way back when, but just now with more Graphic Novels and Manga. One thing that I can always say is the best about this place is the customer service. When I went to Free Comic Book Day, they gave people a list of what was available and crossed out any that were not available, they allowed an individual to get way more comics than the previous store I went to (like 5 comics in comparison to 2 or 3), and when I was conflicted on which comic to get, they just allowed me to have both. Not only this, the main guy at the cash register, I never got his name, but is an older white gentleman that usually wears a cap, is always nice and helpful. I don't remember him from years ago, but immediately from our first interaction, he has the best personality. Easy to talk to and start up a conversation, and leaves a definite positive impression after stepping out of the store. And this isn't just one interaction, I had been going from time to time in 2025, and the attitude was always solid. They never seem to run out of the comics that I am looking for and just generally seem to be great spot hidden away in the Bellflower area. In all, from what I remember back in the mid-to-late 2000s and recently, I give them 5 stars. A great place for comic readers and worthy of being one of my favorite spots to stop by when I am in the mood of purchasing a comic.

    Best place to get your comics. The owner (Mike) is very nice and super approachable. He's extremely…read moreknowledgeable and loves talking about comic books. He's a great resource to level up when it comes to collecting!
