I’ve been to comic book stores all around the world and this is definitely among the ones I’ve liked best. Tons of stuff to browse, from Silver and Bronze Age classics to out of print TPB’s and hardcovers, manga and whatever you may think of. Great discounts too, and a very kind staff! 10/10!!

An amazing journey back in time. Few places like this exist anymore and even fewer with an owner filled with passion about comic books. Worth a visit even if you are not into comics.

Nice friendly staff, with a great selection of progressive and diverse comics. Picked up a comic on the Black Panther Party, An Indigenous History of United States, and a few others.

The man who works there Saturday and Sundays treats customers like trash. He needs help or whoever runs the business should talk some sense into him for not only lying but also bringing up attitude and insulting me. Been shopping here for almost a year and a half now and he has been the worst aspect of it by far. PS. I never stole, they only assumed it and kicked me out because I'm black, of course they do that to the only diverse member in their shop. Says something about their...

We're in Berkeley for a week while my daughter is at the college and we are going around checking out different comic book stores in the area everyday...This is by far the best one! Amazing customer service, excellent selection, very well organized, extremely knowledgeable and helpful staff, great prices, and just all around the most beneficial and pleasant one we've been to!!! Highly recommend for any comic book or manga...

First time here , while the store itself is interesting the vibe was a bit off IMO. The employee was indifferent didn't offer much information about questions I asked.
