I've lived in this area since 2006, so almost 20 years. BAM Clarksville used to have a whole lot…read moremore books and less merch. The magazine section is much smaller and sadder (I was looking for a specific issue of Time and they didn't have that, but plenty of AR-15 mags). Parts of the store that used to be full of books now have FUNKO figures and kids toys, as well as Bible calendars. They also have a section for anime and board games, so the nerd factor is still there, though not on the level of independent shops. They have a coffee shop and a lot of history/biography/study guide/fiction books. The spots reserved for sitting and reading are gone. It is past its prime, but in the time of Amazon, and outside of big cities, what place isn't?

If you can find what you're looking for yourself, then spend your money there. But if you need help, you might as well forget it.

I thought they were a decent establishment at first back in 2003, 12 years later they don't respect anyone that comes in there, even combat veterans who've served their countries, single mothers, and the young men and women who are trying to earn an education. These people definitely DO NOT have my respect anymore. Buyer Beware.... Seller beware.... Do your best to find books elsewhere, places like this deserve to be run out of business.

If that isn't bad enough, it's insanely overpriced compared to other furniture stores. To top it all off, their ownership is not receptive to even constructive criticism and the employees I've dealt with are rude.

I do wish they had a bigger selection of back issue Amazing spider-man though. Not a huge manga selection but about half of one wall. Staff greets you and helpful on my visits. Nothing bad to say on my part about this store if you're into comics.

So maybe my high rating is partly influenced by the fact that this was my first visit to a comic…read moreshop in over two years. Even if that's true--this is still a heckuva comic shop. I haven't had a monthly pull list in some time and I doubt I return to that, at least not at the level I did when I was younger, but if I did this place would be the place to do it. Very well organized, well displayed, friendly service, a healthy mixture of new and back-issues, trades and single issues. Sure they have toys, collectibles and the associated ephemera, but unlike at some comic shops that stuff doesn't take over and replace the focus on the comics themselves. Did I mention they have a rewards program? Cash points for your next visit based on your purchase today and a tracking system in case you accidentally try to buy the same back issue twice. New trades are 20%, so skip Amazon and buy local. I bought up a handful of stuff to catch up on things I had missed and to just sample what's going on these days in the comics world. It appears there's a Rick's in Nashville too which may be closer to me though I might stick with this one even so as it thoroughly impressed me.

She knows a lot about the history of downtown Clarksville, if you're curious.
