I've been going to Al's Comics since the late 90s. This is the best comic shop south of Sacramento. The no-nonsense store is wall-to-wall books, ranging from the 60s to current, and from mainstream to independent labels. Al, himself, is a local hero with a large following and makes you feel welcomed.

Truly one of the best comic shops in the country. Started going there in the mid 1980s. Al and Mike are warm and welcoming to everyone. They made a place where a kid can step away from the harsh world and just be that, a kid. Thank you for the years of enjoyment.

★★★★★ Mike, Aug 2016

A little small and old but it makes me feel like I'm stepping into the past, like what I imagine it felt like to be a kid walking in for the first time and realizing how expansive your world has just become
