Funky Town Comics & Vinyl so I just drove here from Cicero (about 30-35 min drive) to check out said āmodern AEW and elite figuresā with my tax refund in my wallet.
Upon arrival I was greeted by a man who kept calling me brother (which I didnāt particularly enjoy) and when I asked about these figures I was told āthey arenāt priced yet so theyāre not outā. That was a weird statement since I was told on this post 4 days ago that you had them, Iād understand if I went there immediately but getting told that after being told 4 days ago that you had them in stock was extremely unprofessional.

The folks there are legitimately happy to see folks walk in the door, and they'll take the time to learn what you like and direct you to something that fits your interests. Then, you can head out or stick around and chat about your favorite nerdy things. It's a great place!
One of the best aspects of Funky Town is the friendly and welcoming environment they foster. Without ever being overbearing (there've been times I've just quietly browsed for an hour), the guys here offer a greeting, ask about your interests, and make suggestions if you want them. You might just pop in for that one thing you were looking for, or you might find yourself in a two-hour conversation about Star Wars. It's a great place to find cool stuff and a sense...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreIāve been going to this store since it opened and I canāt say enough about the amazing staff and atmosphere of the place. The moment you walk in you are immediately greeted and made comfortable. Jesse, Jeff, and all the guys know their stuff and will help you search through their massive inventory and give you recommendations on what to read. Every week they are stocked up on all the best new books. They also get a ton of collections coming so if youāre into older issues they have that too. On top of this, thereās something for everyone at Funky Town. Whether youāre into vinyl, comics, toy collecting, or Pokemon this is the store for you! Overall, I canāt say enough about how awesome this store is! I am and will forever be a...
