The location has two massive stories of wall-to-wall geeky joy. Books, action figures, art, video gaming goodness; it's got it all. I appreciated how everything was very well organized (largely by pop culture features/brands). It was so well organized that I didn't need to actually ask for any directions or help finding stuff.

Loved the selection of collectibles here! Loved that there are multiple locations for collectors.read more

Brilliant prices, brilliant customer service and really sturdy packaging for the comics. The huge catalogue of comics for such good prices, especially compared to other online shops, and the detailed notes on the condition of comics means I'll definitely be making some more orders in future!

I was in the neighbourhood when I came across this store, and I hadn't been expecting to see a…read morecomic book store. They looked like they'd moved across the road recently or were about to as there was signage for the shop on both sides of the street. Inside is very much a no frills operation, but one done right. There's three things I've come to expect at comic shops, and that is the wall of new comics, longboxes of older comics and those rarer comics hung up higher. This had all three, was neat and tidy, wasn't too hot and had a series of discounted comics. That's enough to get four stars for this sort of establishment from me! Excelsior!

That said A Place In Space is primarily an online operation and the walk in traffic is probably a bound to them so they don't go overboard no the way the shop looks. They have a large variety of comic books form Marvel & DC. They have the current stuff you may like A vs X, current X-men and Spiderman books to name a few. They have an extensive stock of older comic books and the larger graphic novels which have become popular. Every time I go in they seems to have a discount on the price of both the comic books and graphic novels, which I am not going to complain about!! Where other shops of this nature also have a variety of models of comic book heroes this one does not have that many, but as I said the main focus of the shop is the comic book. They have a multitude of comics of which the staff know where they all are. The staff are knowledgable and will let you know they are always getting deliveries and it is possible that the comic you are after may come in soon you just have to check back to see. The big plus for me is that I don't have to go into town if I wish to look for a comic book which is a huge bonus to me. So if you are in the area and just want to peruse some comics this is as good a sang without the fancy displays, just comic books.

The staff are on the ball and know their stock. If you are wanting to track down a random old comic, then make sure to ask for Hugh (older guy with dreads), he certainly knows his stuff and has managed to track down a number of specific titles for me. I'm not really into the comic scene these days, but still love finding a random independent graphic novel. The store carries a real diverse range and I couldn't resist the zombie survival handbook last time I popped in. They also stock a lot of 'figures' like Star Wars and Nightmare Before Christmas toys. Some of these can be expensive, but they also make a nice random present for movie fans. If you are into your Japanese manga they also stock a wide range of tittles in English, as well as random merchandise for movies like I mentioned above. Certainly a good shop to consider if you are at a loss for a present.

Better to skim and browse, and what better place to do so than Dave's Comics? A treasure trove of comics and graphic novels, with two little shops in the North Laine, Dave's is a great place to browse and buy anything comic related, from the items themselves to longer graphic novels and figurines and the like. I've always been far interested in comics than the actual stories within them themselves: so many characters, none of them can (really) die, the stories repeat themselves... still, I like keeping up with what happens in the comic book world, and love browsing some of the titles. Dave's is a wonderful place for browsing, it really is. No one bites your head off if you stand there for a couple hours, just looking through books and reading little bits here and there: a very nice service for the toe-dipping fan like myself. When you do actually decide to buy, you'll be pleased to know the prices here are very reasonable as well: a boon since comics have gone from a couple of cents to a couple quid per little book. I'm also pleased to see how many other comic-related items they have too (between their two shops), from figurines to posters to art books to other comic paraphenalia. I wish I had the money to be more of a comics enthusiast: for now, an occasional browse in Dave's will have to do!

Something which the other comic shops in London don't really provide. They also have some bargain buckets where you can pick up some great reads for 20p each! Fantastic way to get into reading comics. Another amazing thing about this store is they have a gallery where they often display comic art exhibitions as well as hosting book launches and signings. Met some of my favourite creators in this store. If you're a geek in London and haven't already checked it out then what have you been doing? Drop everything and go now!
