This place is amazing! I stopped by here with a couple of friends on Batman Day (7/23) so we could get the free Batman comic. Apparently he was also giving out vouchers for capes and cowls but that was for the first 200 people... which we were definitely not a part of. You know this place is special as soon as you spot it from the street because it is so well decorated/painted with comic book figures and logos. And the inside is even better, with so many props to take pictures of/with and a huge variety of comic books and merchandise. Seriously... there were so many things I wanted to buy... it was so hard to exercise self-control :P
The owner was also really nice and great to talk with. And with plenty of parking, I would totally be a regular here if it was in my neighbourhood. Sadly (but very thankfully for my wallet) this place is too far for me to ever frequent... but I will definitely be stopping by whenever I'm in the neighbourhood! So jealous of everyone who lives...

I came in on Friday and the comic wasn't there. The shop associate was marginally kind, but didn't go out of their way to even apologize.
I guess I need to find a new...
Read moreMedium/small sized store with a lot of older stock. Items are dusty. Really feels like such a shame. It seems like this place used to have an owner that really cared. There are much better places to go just right down the street.
Pros: Worker was friendly and let me browse in peace. Nice music was playing.
Cons: Everything at this store is cover price.... Big Disappointment My main attraction are graphic novels and there wasn't an exciting selection here. Most first volumes were out of stock. When I went I was the only customer so I was fairly comfortable, but if there were maybe 4 or 5 more people, it would feel...
