Excellent comic book shop in the Charleston area. Had time to kill waiting for a flight and…read morehappened upon this spot. Nice selection of trade paperbacks and a decent selection of action figures (lots of vintage stuff) and tons of Pops. Also had a lot of back issues. Fairly large space as far as comic book shops go, so was really fun to explore. The real highlight was the gentleman at the register. Can't recall his name (he recommended a nearby convention hosted by the store that I checked out and was really cool), but he was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful - let me know about an issue that came out that I hadn't been aware of based on my purchases. Great spot!

Upon arrival, I approached the business located in the first third if the strip mall. I entered through the single door located at the A-B corner of the business. The business had several, unknown males behind the counter, yet none acknowledged our entrance. I then rooted around in a few bargain bins and looked in the cases, scant feet away from the employees. No offers to show anything or answer questions. I continued to look at stagnant shelves of toys, set there but not displayed. No eye appeal. I attempted to locate some old issues of series that I enjoy, but was met with negative results. I tried to find a new series I wanted to try out, but found that, if it isn't mainstream, it ain't at Captain's. I continued to watch as the employees and a few clique customers chatted. I know I could have asked for help, had I needed it. It's nice to just be acknowledged occasionally. And this isn't my first visit. Or my tenth. Or my fiftieth. Rarely do they make anyone but "their" customers feel welcome. This is why I don't mind paying shipping for another comic shop to keep my books and send them to me. I know, too, that Captain's has been voted "Best Comic Shop in Charleston" or something similar. But when you are the ONLY shop, it isn't hard to be "best". And it would be different if I were face in the crowd kind of guy. I'm not. I have a distinct style that is rarely repeated. People who have not seen me in twenty years recognize me and speak. I'm not saying I want to be gushed over, but a "Welcome, if you need anything" to a guy that stops regularly would be nice. End of Report.

I wouldn't recommend buying or even going to this place- especially if you have a child who is still developing an immune system. They have a great selection of toys, a bit pricey though. Please stay away from this place. I am immune compromised and I have the worst migraine for hours after I was in there for 5 minutes. Don't buy from here, or go either. This is coming from someone who loved coming here as a kid. I'm sad to see what has happened.

We picked out a toy four our 1 year old niece and a couple more goodies for the grandbabies and I told him we had to check out before we broke the triple digit threshold- because that's easy to do. My daughter would have loved to have shopped here! Great gift buying.

It's tempting to grab all the cool Lego sets and it's definitely a struggle to prevent myself from doing so. Lego has been super slow with sending me replacement parts (when I find missing pieces or damaged pieces in sets). But Bricks & Minifigs seems to always have the pieces that I'm looking for! My son came in the other day to trade in a set he didn't really care for. They gave him a decent offer and he of course ended up buying something from the store with the store credit he had. He definitely walked out of there happy!
