It's often hard to book a table because they are so busy, but it's so worth it. Their space is clean, smells great, and their restrooms are super clean as well.

The employees are very sweet but tend to leave you alone, which is honestly great for an introverted party.

But as someone who sincerely relishes and cherishes shops that are welcoming and open to everyone who wants to participate in my favorite hobby, I wanted to take the time to give them a quick review to get them in the map. I should also preface this by saying they are not my local shop, but I drove 25 minutes north to meet them based on what I was hearing and seeing about them. Secret Identity Comics (SIC) is a very small and intimate comic book shop nestled in a corner of the main street spaces of Delaware. It's got that mom and pop feel that matches it's size and scope, and is co-run by a husband and wife team (apparently when it comes to comic book shops I have a type). They have odd hours as this place is a labor of love of all things comics and affiliated pop culture. They both work second jobs to pay the bills and get the business off the ground, but you can tell from the moment you walk in that this is where their passion resides. On one wall is their extremely deep current issues wall. I'm told the wife is the buyer and I caught immediate indications that she knows her stuff - a fantastic combination of what's hot now coupled with strong independent labels and titles. The selection truly is well curated, offering issues of comics you sometimes have to turn to eBay or larger establishments to get. On the opposing wall is an extremely rich collection of volume works and assorted trade backs. A veritable cornucopia of various volumes ripe for the plucking and reading. In the center of the room is a modest longbox collection, but overall I was impressed with what they have. Clearly this is a new place still getting their feet and focusing on contemporary works, and frankly that's a great way to get going. I picked up quite a few things when I was there. They also offer a few rare items, some great "bundled" single issue runs, and odds and ends. Another major thing to note for us collectors - they're a registered CGC submission location. I already got my stuff lined up with my local haunt, but it's worth noting if you live closer and want to get your precious items graded and slabbed without having to go too far. Finally - and this is me getting a bit political, sorry - they are very LBGTQ friendly, and as someone who advocates for and identifies with these communities, that is an extremely important quality. The only negative reviews this place gets seems to be predominantly backlash for being openly supportive through events like Drag book readings, I felt obliged to put what little weight I can for celebrating their openness and normalization of anyone and everyone who enjoys the hobby. Definitely give them a try - and please take pictures! There's plenty of photos on their google listing too.

Finally was able to make it inside while I was in town and (learned the hours the last time I made the mistake and stopped by on a closed day). The store is ok. The staff was willing to help. They have a large selection of Graphic novels. I found a few things I liked, I would recommend if your local, but if you are from out of town looking for a new comic store to browse back issues don't waste your time. Not a large selection to search through and the long and short boxes are packed so tight that it makes it hard to look through them without first pulling a bunch out, then squeezing them back in.

The selection is pretty good, and the store has been clean and mostly welcoming both times I've been there. However, what broke it for me was when the owner told me he didn't have time to read any comics himself. I had stopped in one afternoon after work out of curiosity and subsequently struck up a friendly shop talk conversation with him. He seemed knowledgeable enough about the broad strokes of comics both as a medium and an industry, but I couldn't get past his lack of reading. Would you go to a mechanic that didn't drive a car? Would you eat at a nice restaurant if the chef only ate PB&Js? In a niche industry like comics, people crave community, and I just didn't feel it at Journey into Comics.

However, a great deal of disorganization is found quickly, and if you're there for anything else, it is behind the counter and cannot be analyzed further without waiting in line (the same line as the checkout) to ask about anything. Probably wouldn't go back, but if specifically comic books are your thing - this is your place! If you're after the "plus" there are better stores.

Jeremy and Zak are two of the clerks and they always have a "Hey! Hello! How are you?" when you come through the door. The store is well stocked with table-top RPG books and accessories, current and back issues of all the great comic books, card games and accessories, and miniatures. If they don't have it, they have a great relationship with their distributor and can get it for you in a relatively short period of time. The store is always clean and neat, with plenty of table space for any of the myriad of games you might like to play there. They keep some snacks and drinks on hand for sale, but are also close enough to several different restaurants to make it easy. Currently (as of 07/15/2012) they have a punch card program - 1 punch for every $25 spent, and 6 punches gets you a $25 gift certificate. All in all, a great FLGS - with great people to boot!
