This place is not for local customers. Every Wednesday, new releases are cleared out by other local comic book store owners for their shelves. If there was an issue you could not get a hold of, I bet you can find that exact same issue at “Pulp Fiction”, marked up because they bought the supply for the week from Amazing Comics. The rest of the collection that is left, is damaged goods being sold at full-price. For instance, some Local Comic Book Store Day foil variants are damaged at the spine and color breakage right on the cover selling, at above cover price. If you are lucky to find what you’re looking for, it is not guaranteed to be a copy in acceptable condition. You might get lucky if the store decides to cover up the damage with a price tag. To make matters worse, eventually if you explore the store long enough, you’ll discover an ‘unmarked’ section beneath the back-issues, that is ‘reserved’ for store employees only. Don’t touch those! Apparently, they’re highly sought after issues that staff sets aside for their own speculation purpose. Forgive me for not understanding fully, but how is that a professional business practice? If you don’t want visitors to look through those boxes, they should not be there or there should be a clearly marked sign. So, if the new issues are ‘Reserved’ for other comic book store owners and employees every week, and the rest of the collector issues are ‘Reserved’ for staff at Amazing Comics, then what is ‘Reserved’ for the local customers and visitors? Trash. It’s embarrassing to see this in the community. In fact, miss me with that shiz. I’ll skip out Wednesdays now, I don’t want to see “Red Hat Guy” getting verbally abused by “Pulp Fiction Girl” again for not pulling her specific issues. Now available at THIS local comic book store.

I love this little place! I discovered it through a random Google search when I was looking for the Stranger Things comic series by dark horse. Staff is great & knowledge. It's like walking into Cheers, but for comics. They seem to know all the regulars (or at least make it seem that way!) Overall, great place. Would def recommend & I always go back.

Totally great place! You don't have to be a comic geek to love this store. They have an art gallery in the back and the place is warm and friendly. They have a huge stock of graphic novels as well and even some of your favorite collections from the dailies.

Fantastic little comic store. There are even people sitting around in the lounge area discussing comics. The store is bright, wide open feeling, and laid out very well.
