Selection is great, but customer service needs improvement. Helpful + welcoming interactions can use some work. Note: The owner was not present during my visit. Typically customer experiences are top notch with most comic book stores in this case.
After looking for the first time to start buying comics this has become my one stop shop. They were very nice and understanding of just how confusing starting out is and lead me to to the things I wanted and wanted to know more about.
I really like this store and the owners. My youngest son, 14, collects and has visited most of the comic stores in CT. He likes this one the best! Now that he is away at high school, I stop in there almost every week to get the latest for him. The owners have always been helpful and tolerant that I know NOTHING!
Small but packed comic store. They’ve got a pretty extensive collection of popular publishers and series despite their size. I appreciated their organization system and the cashier was polite.
