Very friendly people. Heard that Marvel was doing a collaboration and releasing a new Ultraman comic, so wanted to check it not. Not the biggest place and limited back copies, but its a good little place. I have talked with them before at some of the Galaxy-Cons that have come to Richmond.
Kinda small but still a very nice selection of comics. Pretty affordable and staff is very friendly.
A small shop, but they have a lot of neat stuff. Staff is really friendly. When the guy who rang me up saw what I was buying, he went ahead and pulled the next few issues for me and held them behind the front desk so I can come back and get them when I'm ready -- a really nice gesture that didn't need to be done!
I've been nervous about going into comic stores for a while, after hearing some horror stories about newbies trying to dive in. After a visit here, all those worries are entirely gone. The owners are incredible, both in being friendly and in being incredibly knowledgeable about the store.
