Initial review after one visit is 4 stars...although honestly I'm not too impressed with some…read morethings, overall there was a very strong selection. What made me cringe? It made me feel like a standard comic book shop you see on tv - a very sexist promotion of sexualized women. In the poster section, there's a gorgeous Psyloche poster...except for how it tries to center and show off her butt and Venus mound with just a slim piece of fabric. There are other hyper sexualized posters of women in comics...and then real women scantily clad like I'm in a teenage boy's (or drunken frat guy's) room. Next to the posters is a drawn pin-up against 'censorship' with the woman's nipples poking out so hard it could take an eye out. By the new comics, there's more drawn pin-up art. Like...so skeevey and clearly the owner doesn't realize how many women read comics? U G H. The good parts that made it so I won't nuke this review (so tempting tho): - it's locally owned - located in sylvania which doesn't have that much - walls are covered with back issues, art, and many collectible toys. - bins and bins of older comics - good variety of new comics There does seem to be a lot of focus on DC/Marvel, but there are some other publishers located. I'll return again to give it another try; I was there for 20 minutes and still hadn't looked at everything. But if I lived here, I would not be a regular subscriber, because the environment is not friendly to me.

This was the first full on comic con in Toledo in about 30 years…read more The promoters did an amazing job with it. It focused on comics, not a ton of media guests, and it nailed the comic aspect of a comic con. I loved the show. Spent both days there catching up with friends and enjoying the atmosphere. They also do shows by the same name up in Michigan, but I've never made it out to one. Can't wait to see what they do next.

Been in here often enough now that I feel I can properly review the store and staff. Upgrading from…read moremy "tip" earlier. The staff here is likely knowledgeable when it comes to games, which I don't play many of the types of games they offer her. Just not my cup of tea. On the comics side, which I feel is enough to review them on, since it is advertised on the sign, there is a large selection, but it's not that great. Mostly new books, yes there are rows of back issues, but it's all common stuff, nothing a big collector needs. The staff that is here most of the time doesn't know a lot about the comics side of the store, the few times I've asked I've been told the comics guy is only there on Wednesdays. Such is life. Luckily for me I know the comics industry well enough to not need a lot of help with my choices. It's a good shop for comics, just not great.

You ask a question even if they are just standing there reading they are very short and rude with you. While they do have a large comic book selection and 40k selection. It does not out weigh the way I was treated, the cleanliness, and the organization. I'll take the drive to other cleaner and friendly game shops.

Loves to read and dabbles with them. The only way the store could improve to myself is having a sitting area. Simalar to the designated area outside woman's dressing rooms at department stores where you see groups of husband's holding purses. Yeah, they need a mom area like that because standing in a corner for 30 min while the kid agonizes over which 20, $1 comics he will get is torture.
