The store has good comic books. There are new, contemporary, and vintage books. I didn’t have a hard time finding what I wanted. The store also has bobbleheads, old videogame consoles, and old games. I did get incel vibes though. I heard male staff say “females” and treat the few feminine-appearing customers, like myself, differently compared to the enthusiasm they had for male-appearing customers. Hope this helps.

Found some great comic books, and a Dungeon and Dragons guide I couldn't get in time elsewhere for my grandson, as well as new Pokémon decks. Plan to take him here the next time he's in California. I think he'd really enjoy this place.

I was feeling nostalgic for some of my old toys growing up after seeing my son make something similar with Lego guys and some floss. I was able to find Sky Commanders at SuperSpaceCat and ordered them immediately. They arrived quickly and in the exact same condition as the photo showed. The packaging was possibly overdone in order to protect my order, which I appreciate a ton. Very enjoyable experience dealing with this business. No hassle, quick response and shipping, transparent pictures of actual condition, and care with packaging. Next time I need my retro toys. I know where I'm going firs

I wish that I had taken some pictures or video, but this place was super cool. They had all sorts of nostalgia, but focused on books. 📚 I was going to buy a Nintendo, but they sold me on a console that plays nes, super Nintendo, and Sega genesis. Everyone was super cool and knowledgeable. Wednesday is new comic book day""

On my way to San Jose so thought of swinging by to this location to get specific items. Well stock, wide selections, prices are higher than most stores in regards to back issues, variants, video games, and collectible cards. Odd that an added surcharge for using credit cards and when ask for help the employee just pointed at the location without actually walking himself to the area for assistants. Overall good place to look around, lots of different types of collectibles as well as video games and consoles.

Came in because I heard they sell retro games, but it's really a comic book shop first. Tons of new and old issues, with limited prints and staff that know their stuff. The retro game section has some rarer items spread across four shelves. You've got home and handheld consoles and games starting from Sega systems to Nintendo's 3DS. The only thing is that they do charge more than other game shops, but less than outfits like DKOldies and Amazon. Oh, and there's also TCG singles on the other end of the games section.

One of my favorite places in the South Bay! There used to be more, but I’ll gladly take one over nothing. I really like that they have both comics and retro video games.
