    I enjoy visiting this used bookstore. The book prices are decent and they have a large selection of books. They also have alot of dvds, cds, and even board games. You can also sell your books here for store credit or cash. Either way, it is a bookstore worth visiting.

    Great selection of new and back issue comics. Lots of other merchandise as well. Great highlights of LGBTQ titles. Loved seeing the items from local artists as well. Staff should work on being engaging with staff on the floor and some back issue prices seem high but could be regional. Overall I'd recommend.

    Chill staff, very helpful! Had a vague idea of what I wanted in a board game, and they found me a really fun one! They even offered options they didn't have in-store at the moment, but could special order for me. They talk very passionately about what they sell, which is exciting and very reassuring as a customer.

    Back issues

    I remember playing trading card games like Magic The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh in the late 90s to early 2000s. They were the craze back then and even to this day in 2026, they still are.

    I've been coming here for years. Great selection and a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are welcoming and happy to help. Not only do they sell comics, but they also support trading card games and hold weekly tournaments and have space for casual play.

    The feeling of community and the wealth of knowledge has made Atlantis one of my favorite places to go for all my gaming desires. I found myself getting into MTG about a year ago as a way to stay connected to my teen.

    There are some comic shops that are clinical and have everything in crisp boxes or displayed easily on spacious tables. And those places are fine. But I'll take the well-organized (if packed) chaos of a store like Trilogy every day. If you're looking for back issues, there's a very good chance you'll find them here.
