  Visited today. Awesome shop. First shop I’ve encountered in the wild using middle boarding. I think they converted me in the idea. Excellent selection. Stephanie helped me out and was super knowledgeable and funny.

  The best and one of the only places to see great comic and toys for sale in Houston. I highly recommend and some rare gems in this place. Love this store. Had a great sale today and found a real unique figure. The murals outside are also amazing.

  Really cool comic book, board game, and nerd collectibles shop! Spoke to a gentleman behind the counter that seemed welcoming in a “the butler” from rocky horror kind of way. He told me the place has been there for 50 years! That’s pretty awesome. I hope to make my way back someday to buy the Signed Mark Hamill X-Wing.

  This comic and trading card store is fantastic, largely due to its amazing staff. It was my first time there, and they were always ready to help me find what I needed. I got a great hit from a case I bought, which was awesome. It's a genuinely friendly and welcoming place for both new and experienced collectors.

  It's got that perfect local comic shop smell and everyone there is so pleasant to talk to. Love how easy they make finding new books as well as their little clearance boxes. Plus a good selection of reasonably priced magic card packs! Definitely recommend

  Deceptive pricing. Found a retired LEGO set here that was priced below the going rate on eBay. The box had a prominently visible tag in the top right hand corner of the box. I thought I was getting a good deal and that the store was competitive. I checked out with it and another set and was a little shocked at the price. As soon as I walked out of the store I realized that I was charged $20 more than what was listed on the front of the box. I immediately went back into the store and asked to be refunded, but the clerk told me all sales are final and pointed to a tag on THE BOTTOM of the box w
