Pete runs a fantastic shop with tons to look at and choose from, and Pete himself is a great guy to sit and chat with about nerdy pursuits! Definitely worth the visit.

Great spot, good selection of comics, DnD, and other assorted trinkets. Only wish they had more Star Wars comics.

The people there are amazing, very helpful. They have everything you can imagine, that goes along the nerdy side of life. Good store, good quality things. I recommend going there for MTG cards and nerdy hats.

EDIT Oct 21st 2025: Not sure how this review is confusing, but I’ll walk through what happened. The dusty old box filled with damaged items was on the ground beside the spinning case of various dice. After I was done looking through it, the woman working loudly stated “oh, wow, looks like someone stole the dice out of the package” of a broken plastic package I held not even a minute or two ago. I may look a bit unique, but profiling me over a box full of *almost* garbage on the ground is not cool. Three employees were standing around conversing with one another behind the til as I put my item up on the counter. No one said Hello, no one said thank you. I never even got looked at while someone processed my transaction. It’s really important to me as a consumer that the business I’m giving my money to appreciates me coming in. Best of luck __________________________________________ The store has a great selection and is really fun to look around in, but the customer service was disappointing. When I went to pay, the staff behind the counter ignored me completely, no hello or acknowledgment at all. Just give me your money and leave. While I was looking at an item, a woman in the store started loudly suggesting that someone had stolen a part from it, even though it was in a dusty, broken box full of old damaged stuff. It felt obviously directed at me and came off really passive aggressive. It’s too bad, because the store itself is cool, but I’d rather spend my money somewhere that treats customers who pays their shops bills with more respect. Show less

I had not been in my comic collection in 30 years and visiting the store restarted my passion for the culture of the genre.

I had not been in my comic collection in 30 years and visiting the store restarted my passion for the culture of the genre. I have enjoyed the friendliness and quality of the expansiveness of the back issues which is my weakness. I live more than an hours drive away and not been to the "big city" in years and now I have to go every weekend to feed my growing collection. I highly recommend visiting if you haven't you won't be disappointed. Show less
