We came to Kalamazoo with three places to go, Farefare being one of the places. We hadn't realized…read morethey moved down the road a bit (guess it had been longer than we thought since we last came) so they now have their own private parking lot which is nice. Their selection of comics is colossal, the main reason we come back. Their game selection is also phenomenal and they even have a "game cage" for table top games to happen in store. Kids also have game and comic options as well as stuffed animals that are great for all ages. Staff is friendly, greeting us as we entered and various employees asking if we needed help with anything during our visit. We got what we wanted and continued our adventure. I'm glad we make FanFare a regular Kalamazoo stop and am already looking forward to coming back.

Locally owned and operated by Nancy and John Spoula, Rabbit Hole Comics has a wide-ranging…read moreselection of comics from both DC and Marvel as well as a few of the independent comic publishers. If you bring in their flyer you receive $2 off your purchase which is a great way to get people in the door. They not only sell all the nerdy things, but you can sell to them as well. The walls of Rabbit Hole Comics are lined with beautiful posters and most of them are for sale (a few aren't but they don't have prices on them so that should have been my clue before asking). They also have a large selection of action figures, stuffed animals, movies on dvd as well as VHS, toys, kids books that sorta teeter on being comics (like Captain Underpants or Dog Man), and trading cards. As far as the Comics go, I feel like I could have sifted through the box's for at least two hours. I loved being able to look around and enjou myself on a day like today. My husband did end up not only selling some items to the shop but also ended up picking some stuff up in a "instead of cash, I want this item for what I sold" type of deal. I can see us coming back to this store frequently, even if I am only tagging along to say hello to the two adorable puppers in the store.

They have all the fixings to start you on a d&d adventure including dice, books and figurines. They have cards upon cards for magic the gathering along with the binders, card covers and card boxs. Love comics? They have those too! Best part? You can order things from their site to get sent to your home or the store and it even has a wishlist feature so they can let you know when they get something in stock! My husband was giddy- "Ace, look! I can shop from my computer!" So, if you have a nerdy significant other, stop into the store or check out their online shop to give your love an amazing gift, maybe a Valentine's gift. Hopefully you'll love it as much as my husband and I did.

As most places that have comics and trading cards, the Warehouse also has quite the selection of Funko pops as well as other action figures. They have a small counter top display with dice, an area with trading card accessories (like binders, deck boxes, and playing mats), and a trading card event space. While we were there, a trading card tournament was actively being held. Employees were friendly, prices were fair and the space was well organized. Even with a good amount of people in the building, it didn't feel crowded. Even with the tournament going on, several employees were helping customers not involved with the event and keeping on top of regular business. I would recommend this spot to stop for comics or trading cards.

They have selections of trading card games, comics old and new, and toys and memorabilia for nerdy franchises going back decades.

I absolutely love wandering in Vault of Midnight and coming in for little gifts for my friends!…read moreIt's a bit overwhelming to try and find something if you're not a big comic book or graphic novel enthusiast but even as someone who appreciates it, you can ask the staff at any point and they will be more than happy to provide recommendations or point you in the right direction. I've never gone wrong with purchasing a gift here and I definitely will come back. They even have a punch card for loyalty which is amazing. Parking is a little tough since it's right on Monroe Center and street parking but I haven't had a big issue. I'm a huge fan overall and encourage people to stop in if they haven't!

Vault of Midnight has been one of my go-to stores for years now! I grew up a comic book and graphic…read morenovel fan so to have a nice store right in the middle of downtown is great! They have comics, graphic novels, manga, board games, blind boxes, and some ttrpgs and trading cards. The staff are always incredibly helpful and kind and will definitely help give you a recommendation based on what you like. I love the area in the front with self-published and local zines. It really is a small gesture but shows an effort to uplift and platform the local community and creatives. This location is definitely smaller than the other I visited, but there's still so much to find! There are several other stores along the street as well as the Art Museum, so it's a great place to stop by on a day out!

If they don't have what you're looking for, they'll quickly volunteer to special order it for you. Moreover, when someone new to comic books visits the shop, they're quick to offer advice that compliment their tastes. They don't push their own likes or dislikes, they ask what kind of stuff they're into and make recommendations based on that. I thoroughly recommend the store, whether you're a new reader or something looking to renew a pull list.
