They even have a gaming room in the rear. Upon checking out the cashier asked us if we had ever been there before, and gave us each a free T-shirt when we told her it was our first time. Definitely check this place out, it's one of the better comic book stores in all of Central Florida!

However, if you are looking for hard to find issues, back issues of popular and hard to find comics, then this is your NIRVANA. I have been inside this shop a number of times and always find what I am looking for and more. The owner is helpful, engaging and will help you search for what you are looking for. Prices are fair and the atmosphere is low key. But when you have a chill location like this, understand you have to be flexible. I have been by a few times when they were closed during hours they were supposed to open and have looked for tho ha I was sure they had, but did not. But if you are a true comic book fan, this is an amazing shop to visit.

The adult section has a really awesome selection of classic books in beautiful unique handcover binding/covers. Really funny books too!

Highly recommend checking out Barrel of Books and Games! There really is something for everyone.

They sell used books as well and have a great selection of both games and puzzles. I purchased a few items here last year as Christmas presents. Friendly staff on-site to help with your bookish needs. I look forward to being a regular customer.

I don't know how I missed this store the many times I've been to DeLand over the years, but I have…read moreto say this is hands down my favorite book store in DeLand. It's PACKED full of books! Cliff specializes in horror, sci-fi, mystery, comics, but carries at least something from just about any other genre you can think of. Some of the older more rare books are kept in a thin plastic protectors to preserve them, and are neatly organized onto shelves. Cliff also sells a variety of collectable glassware and toys. It's best to let Cliff know what you are looking for so he can direct you to the right location. I asked him where he keeps music books and he took me right to the spot then informed me that the entire bottom shelf was full of them, but I would need to dig a little since there was three more stacks of music-related books in front of the shelf; I was in heaven, lol! There was a lot to sift through and I didn't even see it all because my wife was pulling me out before I get deep in it. Regardless, I decided on purchasing three music books: Hits of the 90's for $6; Casio Piano sound Music Library Piano Scores for $8; and Guns N' Roses Anthology for Guitar for $15. When I went to check out, I asked Cliff if he could sell me all three for $25 and he said no problem. Then he got distracted with another customer for a minute and came back to me and asked "what was I charging you again," and I replied $25 and started to pull out cash and he said "Lets just make it an even $20," wow, what an awesome guy! Thank you, Cliff! Cliff also hosts big comic events in the DeLand area, so if your interested in those types events I recommend checking out his Instagram or Facebook page since the main website is a bit outdated with all of his happenings. All-in-all, a great book store and I recommend Cliff's if you are a book lover and are in the area shopping. I will be back!

This review is strictly about how the owner chose to handle the situation. I went in looking to buy a structure deck for the new Gundam card game that just released. The staff member confirmed they had four decks in stock, but said they weren't selling them yet because they hadn't received their full shipment and were worried about scalpers. I completely understood that concern, so I explained I only wanted one deck for myself. Even then, she said the owner refused to sell them because they wanted to use the decks for an event to teach people how to play. I mentioned I wouldn't be able to attend the event and just wanted to buy the product, but they still said no. I honestly don't know how they're going to run an event with only four structure decks. It's frustrating to be turned away when they clearly had the product in stock, especially since I've had several good experiences with this shop in the past. Again, I really appreciate how well the staff member handled the situation. Unfortunately, the owner's decision here made for a very disappointing experience. If you're looking for Gundam products, this is not the store to go to.

Highlights included the giant Gremlins and Pokémon vending machine, though sadly it was out of order, it was still fun to see! We also noticed a neat speakeasy out back that we definitely want to check out next time. Overall, this is a great spot for any nerd, collector, or cosplayer. We really enjoyed our visit and plan to come back!

They also had a nice selection of comics. My main collecting focus right now is old Mattel Secret Wars figures, while I didn't see any of those the Horror Figure section caught my eye. We ended up leaving with a set of Halloween 3 Toony Terrors and 2 of the 2012 Figures Toy Company reproduction Mego Mad Monster figures. All in all a solid shop we'll stop at whenever we're in town.

Comic Shop organized a Pre Release event for the One Piece Paramount War card game. The organizers…read moretold players that booster box purchases would have priority to players who participated in the event. On the day of the event, players who signed up were written on a short list to be able to purchase a box during the middle of the event. Mid-way through the event, the staff informed players that only the top half of the short list would receive a box. At the end of the event, the staff told the players who were on the top half, that the list was rewritten, their placement was changed, and there was no longer a box available to them. As a player who was among the top half of the original list, I felt very hurt, frustrated, with a broken trust with the comic shop at that point. I also had a friend who arrived earlier, was number 2 on the list, but had his name scratched out and told he couldn't get a box. It was very shady and borderline false advertisement. My recommendation to the comic book shop is to be truthful and upfront to prevent these kinds of things from happening. They lost returning customers.
