    Bit of a drive, I'm not close to Hilliard but well worth it. A vast selection of collectibles, comics, funkos, and much more. The store is well organized and clean. A super friendly staff. There's a bottom half of the store that's dedicated to back issues.

    I came here on an early Sunday afternoon on a trip to Columbus. The local comic shop owner in my town recommended it when I told him I was taking a trip there. I really liked the selection here, and the way the store was organized. Plus the store employees were really helpful and friendly.

    Amazing comic book and game store. Especially enjoyed the book nook and the dungeons and dragons dice. I was Here for the mega value black Friday sale starting at 6am. This shop is just a little far from my home to be my daily shop but if I lived near Dayton this is where I would be. Especially for yugioh. Magic.

    AWESOME PLACE DUDE! Seriously, I've been shopping at Mavericks since early 1991. For me personally, it's always been by far - the best of the best, of comic book shops in the entire Dayton area. Great selection, great friendly, knowledgeable employees, more than fair comic grading, and pricing.

    TONS of comics here. Pokemon cards, dice, D&D supplies, paints, & more. Inside is a bit overwhelming as there are multiple rooms & areas inside that look to be designated for different things but there's no signs that I noticed so I just stay away lol.
