My nephew's birthday is in April and he's very fond of comic books. My brother asked me to look…read morefor Marvel comic books in Austin. First, visit Dragon's Lair Comics & Fantasy. From the outside, it sits quietly in a North Austin shopping center near Hop Doddy's. If you blink, you might miss it. Once you step through the doors, you feel transported to a totally different place like Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the Harry Potter story. You find shelves of comics, books, games...everywhere your imagination can take you. Dragon's Lair has been part of the Austin community since 1986. You feel a rush to flip through comics, try on costumes or transport yourself to a fantasy land. New releases co-exist with long loved series. Graphic novels, tabletop games, miniatures, dice, and collectibles are readily available. The prices at Dragon's Liar appear reasonable. According to the store manager, the tables within the store are reserved for Magic tournaments, Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) campaigns, and board games spread across tables. The energy is welcoming fostering collaboration between new and existing players. The shop cats, Diana and Brigid, wander through aisles like they own the place, which makes Dragon Liar feel homey and welcoming. The store stays open late sometimes, acknowledging that games and stories don't always fit neatly into set hours. Dragon's Lair is huge, busy, sometimes overwhelming in a good way. It reflects Austin's creative culture...inclusive, and deeply passionate.

They do have a good supply of books at the front of the store. There was a set up for gamers in the back of the store. There is a cool incentive to buy books here where you can earn points when you buy something that can add up to $5 off your next purchase. Neat. The staff was friendly and helpful. I'd come back here.

The area it is in is a strip mall so there are other things around to take a look at. On one visit, my friend wanted to know the status of an order she had placed, and if the shop could change the name on her order. The guy behind the counter helped change the name no problem. He was super efficient and even checked if there was anything else that needed to be altered in the system on the shop's end. I thought this was really rad. They have the standard comic book store items. It is not huge, but it is well organized and they're willing to order any books they do not have in stock already. Stop in if you're in the area.

My daughter and I go regularly as we read and paint together so it's a fun outing for our hobbies.

Then a story line section where they put all the comics in a storyline next to each other. They have graphic novels by writers and then just by company elsewhere. Lots of games too.

I think it is cool they have meetups at least 4 times a week themed in various ways for like minded gamers to get together and play. Selection is pretty darn amazing. I saw games I had not seen before. The staff was active and helpful where he could be. He helped me find things but did not know much about the games themselves...at least not the ones I asked about. But hey...they have A LOT of games! Like a librarian, it takes a while to gain the knowledge of everything you have on tap. I will definitely be making my purchases here rather than go online and have it delivered. It is nice to have a place like this in town where you can touch the product. I would love for them to stay in business! SHOP LOCAL!
