Stepping into Comic Cellar is like walking into Narnia, if Narnia was full of comic books, smelled…read moreslightly of vintage paper, and had two friendly guides named Tom and Brian instead of a talking lion. This place has everything.... shiny new comics, ancient relics from the comic book Stone Age, Manga, and probably a cursed scroll or two. My daughter asked about a specific comic, and Tom and Brian sprang into action (to assist) like Batman and Robin (you decide who's who). I was impressed w the Manga choices as well. The vibe? Top-tier. The collection? Comic heaven!!! Parking? Well... it's street parking, so bring your sneakers and mentally prepare for a hero's journey to the front door. Worth the quest. Would definitely return!!

If you haven't gone here you need to go. I wish I stayed there longer, but I was on a strict schedule. The atmosphere is creative and welcoming, with a cool artistic vibe that makes browsing so much fun! The staff clearly knows their stuff and are passionate about books and art. The store was super clean , well organized and easy to navigate through, when with such uniqueness. Overall experience was so unique, I wish i had more time to enjoy the cafe, games and books. Plan on staying here for at least an hour. I love this place! Found it by accident.

After a rainy day in Glendale I looked up the sorts of places I like to visit typically when I'm in…read moreor around greater LA. I was disappointed to see record stores have dried up, but when I looked up comic book stores, this was near the top, and close to where I had lunch. Street parking is fairly easy, and I didn't realize that the first door I passed was another entrance to a café looking area. However, the main entrance was a visually impressive experience in its own right. Full of stimuli basically, that's assured at Revenge of... (the Nerds? Supes?). Love the name! In addition to comics and usual toys and nicknacks, I was delighted to find not one, but two areas devoted to pinball machines! Additionally, the interior design evokes lots of classic (e.g. Silver and Bronze Age) artwork. X-Men and Spider-Man definitely influenced the architectural approach. It's impressive and lends a fun vibe, as well as atmospheric lighting. Two café counters in different areas allow for drinks to be purchased, and lots of nooks and crannies have things ranging from vinyl records, board games, a discounted graphic novels area, as well as recent comic titles and weekly releases (typically on Wednesdays). The back issues are found in X shaped fixtures and spaced in a clever arrangement that simultaneously encourages and enhances browsing, and yet doesn't clutter the walking areas. I found several missing issues for my Conan the Barbarian run, and everything is bagged and boarded (archival terms), so that's good. I didn't explore the pinball machines as I was pressed for time, but I definitely see myself visiting when I'm nearby in the future.

The greater LA area used to be a haven for ethnic enclaves. With the decline of first generation…read moreimmigrants these vibrant cultures have been diminishing or at least shifting geographically. This gem is still located in the heart of the SGV. Thanks to the kind owners it remains an outlet for a different form of entertainment. Both English and Chinese manga are available, and custom orders can be made. There are quite a few series that are hidden gems, and the owners are very helpful with any questions. It's clean, organized, reasonably priced and even has a large meeting room for events for manga loving fans.

I cant believe Ive passed by this place so many times without noticing it. Like most stores in my…read morearea, It is truly a hidden gem that serves the locals. Me and my gf stopped by after we noticed it while driving and we were appalled by the aesthetics of the store. You walk in and its like you just entered the secret store in an rpg. The store offers rental services as well as purchasing books. Most of the manga/comics are in Chinese, however, they are currently expanding their english catalogs. There is a sitting area with comfy chairs where you can read their manga like a library. The owner was very nice and welcoming. We chatted about things and the store has been in his ownership for about 6 months. I look forward to not having to drive all the way to LA just to buy manga.

Walking into The Last Bookstore feels less like entering a shop and more like stepping into a…read moredifferent world. Housed inside a former bank, the space already carries this grand, historic energy that sets the tone before you even start browsing. What makes this place unforgettable is how it's designed to be explored, not rushed. There are cozy spots scattered throughout where you can sit and get lost in a book, but the real magic is upstairs. It opens into a maze of rooms, each with its own personality, filled with carefully arranged books that feel more like art than inventory. At times, it genuinely feels like you've wandered into a dream. One of the highlights is the famous tunnel of books, which adds to that surreal, almost cinematic experience. Everywhere you turn, books are used as decor in the most creative ways, and it creates this quiet moment where everything else fades out. Upstairs also holds one of my favorite parts, a row of art studios featuring work from local artists. Every piece feels intentional, unique, and thoughtfully placed. Right nearby, there's a small coffee shop surrounded by beautiful artwork, making it an easy place to pause and take it all in. This isn't a quick stop kind of place. Plan to spend a few hours here, wandering, discovering, and just enjoying the atmosphere. It's one of the most iconic bookstores I've ever been to, and it absolutely lives up to the reputation.

We always come here looking for Ultraman figures. As my son is pretty obsessed with Ultraman. They…read moredon't have a huge selection. It's kind of hit or miss and depends what they have in inventory as this is a niche product and a lot of it is secondhand. The last time we can here they didn't have the Ultraman Zero and one of the employees who works here was very friendly and helpful. He helped us look for it. I was appreciative that they have employees that are not only friendly, but knowledgeable about variety of different niche products. The hours here are not very good as they open from 12 PM which is not very conveient for customers. The prices here can bit steep for some products, but like I mentioned most of their products are niche and you can't find it anywhere else. As you can see, the boy liked poking around and looking at the different toys and figurines. One moment he wanted Ultraman then Spider-Man then Transformers! He wants it all! LOL!

Great place to go to rent/buy manga, manhua, and Chinese light novels…read more I am not Chinese nor do I read/speak Chinese, so 95% of what they had here wasn't really applicable to me, but I do appreciate that they have a LOT of books. It's really neat that they have layers and layers of sliding bookshelves. There's also some cute character merchandise for sale, a sofa area to sit and read at (looks like they also have karaoke?), and a very small English manga section that's currently 15% off. It was mostly shonen series like Vinland Saga, HxH, Chainsawman, Attack on Titan, etc. It seems like they have a membership service too. If you can read Chinese and enjoy light novels and manga, this is the place for you!
