“They expanded their Warhammer offerings with a whole new nook and there are many more statues and figures and great new collection of t-shirts and hoodies”
From Google reviews
Continues to have a great rotating selection of relevant and timely works, they have a great collection of the newest DC/Marvel titles in addition to a lot of independent, queer, and BIPOC focused work. Well curated selection of D&D, boardgames, Warhammer/AoS, figurines (great Batman statues) and pins.
What a cool store! I loved the experience of walking through the alley (don’t worry not a car alley!) to get to the storefront. TONS of comics, manga, and more! In the summertime, they have seating outside and sale items outside too. And for you tabletop nerds they have die, chips, and figure paint!
This joint straight up caught me off guard right from the go. Having to go down an alley into what seemed like a tiny hole in the wall. To my surprise was a massive selection and clean layout that took no time to navigate with ease. Staff was cool and quick to help when needed.
It’s in the late summer I popped by this super cute little place. I enjoyed my experience walking through the slim alley entrance with curiosity and then found this special place. The store is very organized, bright, and clean. There are seating area in the courtyard to read or chill.
