If you're looking for old stock to complete a collection, chances are, this is where you want to be. Majority of the warehouse *is* old stock with a smaller section for newly released comics. To me that's not really a downside because if you wanted new comics you could go literally anywhere else. But if you're looking for treasures, hard to find older issues, or just older comics in general that you want to read and don't care about the resale value or the condition it's in, this is the place for you. It's a place for collectors and enthusiasts that are searching because they want to own something, not because they're trying to hold it for resale. As for me, I was able to grab Star Wars IV, V, VI in comic form which I never even knew they made, just $5 each. I think this is a must-visit for comic lovers and I'm SO glad our uncle brought us here. Even if you aren't looking for anything, you really need to go just to see how many comics are on these shelves. It's mind-blowing.

I was late to the Bitter Root fan club. [Context: Bitter Root is a comic book series, published by…read moreImage Comics, about a Black family who hunts monsters and attempts to cure them. It's set in the 1920s with the Harlem Renaissance as the backdrop]. The first issue came out in November 2018, but I didn't stumble across the series until 2021. I enjoyed it tremendously and became obsessed with finding an original copy of the first issue to frame. Thus, I embarked on a journey to find it and after hitting up a bunch of comic shops in the city, to no avail. Months later, randomly, I decided to check out Galaxy Comics after meeting a friend for coffee, nearby, in the area. This was not in my original tour but I wish it had been. Not only did they have the first issue of Bitter Root, they had the next four too. Of course, I bought them all. Since then, I've been back a few times to stock up on comics. The vibe there is super chill and the staff really know their stuff. It's not the closest shop to me but I keep going because they always have what I'm looking for... even the older, harder-to-find titles.

This month is AAPI heritage month and their sign caught my eye on some books to read by Asian American authors which I was able to purchase here. They have a vast amount of books for an open book store, 50% seem to be children's books. Although the genres here are quite minimal compared to well-known establishments, there seems to be a vast amount of titles to peruse through from fictional, non fictional, art books, political, cookbooks, coffee table books and more. They also sell local NYT artist Adrian Tomine's framed prints here. The checkout experience was "my-bad". I had forgotten to bring my tote ever since NYC switched to a plastic bag ban policy. So I ended up purchasing a brown paper bag with handles for $.25. Well... learned my lesson! Keep your books safe... Bring a tote bag! Accepts cash and card only. Support local!

The display cases are full of gaming cards, and there's a line of tables for card gaming, and the comics they do hAve are so packed in the wall shelf that they're almost bending from the weight and pressure of the book. Also they never get any variants. All the variants they would get are sent to their Flatbush location because they sell for more there. Despite everything, this store is nice, because they're so helpful and those two old folk are just adorable.

My awesome little friend Max loved his evil blob containment device, and he still hasn't made it to the store yet. Brought a friend who was visiting from Los Angeles here the other Day and he was such a sport he tested out the cape on top of the cape tester machine. Given that he's a creative and works with tons of kids I figured the experience would be priceless. End result: it was. He ate it up. Can't wait to hear how much he loves the Time Travel Mart - in Los Angeles, and the Pirate Supply Store in San Francisco. Dave you're an incredible guy! Love the way your brain works, and how contagious your ideas are. http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/dave_eggers_makes_his_ted_prize_wish_once_upon_a_school.html Date Rating: 10 (This is the BEST place to take a person with a beating heart. Just take a peek into the tutoring room in the back with all of the happy kids and volunteers. If your date doesn't think you're cool because you know about this place - dump them immediately). Pick up Scale: N/A (Bring your own friends the people here are fun to talk to but not a place for mingling). Strong Suggestion: Take the train, walk a few blocks, enjoy the restaurants nearby. GREAT afternoon activity, lots of fun things to see and do nearby.
