Cool merch and a lot of comics but the man working was very rude. He didn't greet anyone entering…read morethe store (he was reading a book) and when I asked him a question about his Deadpool comics he gave me a noncommittal answer and went back to ignoring me. Would be a lot better with more enthusiastic employees.

Called ahead for product to be held back was told on the phone it would be $90 and I could pay when…read moreI picked it up. Picked it up after prerelease price came to $136. I asked why it was so much when I was told it was going to be significantly cheaper prior, I was asked if I was a preferred member, I asked how I would know and was told " you would know if you were". Apparently the $90 price was only if you prepaid for the items this was never said over the phone, I skipped cheaper product at other stores because of this. The deal was not offered and was pretty much told oh well should have prepaid. Thanks Castle, I want to like the place as it's the closest with a big selection but it's not worth giving my money to a place that won't honor a deal they had in place.

I really love this shop. It's brimming with goodies in comic and graphic novels, games, dice, model…read moreand mini paint, etc. There's a comfy seating area, there's snacks and drinks for cheap. It has a model and mini painting room, and it's used for gaming Thursdays and Thursdays. Warhammer, etc. is there on Thursdays. Regular board gaming is there on both nights, but the bulk of the room is reserved for tabletop RPG. There's an additional gaming room in the front. The people that come there to play are are great, the shop is extremely well-run, the staff is great. They do special orders and card trading. They carry some gently used items. And there's a purchase stamp program. Anyways, my brother used to take me, his baby sis, with him to the comic book shop every Tuesday when I was little, and read them to me, so I like checking out any shop I run into in my travels and moves to other states for a touch of home. Castle Perilous is among the most welcoming, and is among the best stocked in each category while still having a lot of variety. Smart use of the square footage. It's impressive.

A bright, well-organized shop with friendly staff and fair prices…read more I dug through the discount boxes and found a lot of $2 comics to fill some holes in my collection. Browsed the other items and chatted with the staff. Looks like they have a decent amount of new issues for local subscribers as well, and other collectibles.

To make things worse, I found some copies of the same issues inside of the store's Dollar Boxes, and they were in the same condition! It was a real shame because I had found about 45-50 issues that I wanted to buy, but there's no way I'm paying $4.00 for a comic that should go for $1.00. Heck, I would even have gone up to $1.75 per issue simply because there were so many that I was looking for. The two stars this store deserves are for (1) friendly service and (2) good selection. Yet neither of these makes up for trying to rip off customers. What a shame.

Their coffee of the week was White Chocolate Irish Cream, and I could not resist that! It came out hot, but not so hot that I could not drink it, and it was just the right sweetness. Their "little somethings" were a variety of muffins, scones, and cinnamon rolls. Maybe something else, but I stopped his recitation over the phone after he said "cinnamon rolls". Another winner, but next time I will take up their offer of heating it up. At the time I wasn't sure I was going to eat it right away, but I do love some drippy icing! They are still take-out only, and you can either call in your order, which I did, or you can appear outside their door and they will come out to take your order. I was very happy that the young lady who came out with my goodies was wearing a mask! Service was quick, and what I had was good, so give them a try if you're in the area!
