I recently visited the Gathering Grounds coffee shop in University Mall - and noticed the sign for…read more"The Amazing Comic Shop," so, as I check out all comic and gaming stores - I knew I had to come back and check it out. It's located in an alley way of sorts - behind Gathering Grounds and other shops directly facing the front parking lot. The first thing you notice walking in - is the super cool, close-to-life size Silver Surfer! I need one of those in my house! Tons of comics, a small amount of Dungeons & Dragons books, and some Funko Pops and other figurines. I bought an Avengers comic collection. Service was good, paid with Apple Pay. #TheAmazingComicShop

If you want books of comics from retro eras, you'll want to go here. They also have lots of games, as well as related merchandise. Prices are competitive. Great staff works here. All of their employees have been friendly and helpful. This is definitely something different, and I appreciate this. A fun place at University Mall. Definitely visit this location, as they have it all under one roof.

I first visited Keep It Strange Comics back in 2024. I've been meaning to go back for some time. I…read moreattempted to do so this morning - and discovered the location was empty. A quick search on the interwebs indicated the store had moved to a new location on the other side of Manassas. So off I went! The new location feels quite a bit large on the inside. They also have a snack bar with they sell food and drinks at certain times - and they have a large gaming room with plenty of tables and chairs! Looks like a good place for some D&D sessions! I bought a set of mini D&D dice to commemorate my visit to the new location. Paid with Apple Pay. #KeepItStrangeComicsAndCollectibles

As i am driving home i open the game and the disk is the wrong game. I drive back expecting the disk maybe in another case, its not. They would not give me a refund but instead a store credit.

An entire half of the restaurant was sectioned off for gaming and I saw a bunch of people sitting down and having fun. Their proximity to GMU makes this a great place to build local community. Snacks are available (thanks for the $1 water!!!) and they have clean bathrooms. Everyone was super friendly and now I have a whole list of new games I want to purchase.

This is not the most convenient store to me, but I'll keep coming as they are one of the few gaming…read moreshops that hasn't become a scalper. Many others in the area will buy card games from the manufacturer then sell at inflated prices to squeeze all value out of a set. Pair o Dice doesn't do this and it's quite admirable. For example, earlier today, I went to two closer stores and was told a box of Avatar MTG cards was over $210 ($174 on Amazon) then I went to Pair o' Dice and bought it at $180. I'll gladly support a local gaming shop that supports their customers and doesn't see us as sponges to squeeze. Good job, Pair o Dice. I will be back.

I do not care what other comic book shops may be more convenient to my wife and I, Tosche Station is a rare type of business that sadly there just isn't enough of.

I found myself wishing there was something more to do here than just buy comics because I wanted to hang around after my purchase just to geek out with them a bit on their tastes and why they were into the things they liked, etc. Their website could use a bit of work, but I'll try to hunt around for information that might give me an excuse to hang out there more often.

As others have noted - this is a pretty small store. It might be the smallest comic book store I've seen in the area. But - small is not necessarily a negative. They have a good selection of comics. They also have a small selection of D&D books and dice. After perusing the store - I did not find anything I wanted, but I'll have to drag a couple of my nerdy comic book friends over to check the place out and get their take on the place. #BigPlanetComics

I drove from…read morethe city to get it diagnosed and the repair guy wouldn't even look at it which was super frustrating. He recommended other repair stores but why have a support area if you won't even bother trying to diagnose an issue much less fix it? No pricing on any packaging was also weird but they do have a website that's mostly usable. Cashiers can also check prices and stock for you. I ended up buying a few games just so I didn't go out there for nothing but was pretty disappointed based on the services offered on the website. The selection of games is really solid but I don't recommend them for tech support.

We came here to get our Switch's charging port repaired. They were super friendly and much more affordable than other bigger franchises doing repairs in the area. There is a shortage of repair techs in the area, we were quoted a month for the repair which was the same as the other shops. Regardless, our repair was completed and at least 30% cheaper than the competitors. The shop is huge and had so much fun merch, my sons and husband were loving exploring their huge selection of games, while I was checking out their kawaii hello kitty plushies and caps. A little bit out of the way, but definitely worth the trip to support this local business!
