    I was simply blown away with the depth of the selection of comics and graphic novels for sale today, which was my very first time ever in this remarkable comic book shop. The clerk at the counter was friendly and knowledgeable about the merchandise.

    I came here with my sister, and she loved this place so much she wanted to come back the same day to finish looking at the rest of the games. I'm not a big gamer, but I can appreciate the variety of games they had to choose from. I don't know how they fit so many games into this store.

    I was visiting a friend in KY a couple of weeks ago. I decided I wanted to read the whole story of Invincible and called around. This place actually came highly recommended from a guy from Game Exchange on Dixie. The store looks like a "hole in the wall" shop on the outside, but inside, it was a geek's wet dream.
