Comics are a huge deal in Philadelphia. I enjoy a good read from time to time. I am thankful that my City has a variety of venues that support this Comic Books. Maranatha ✝️ Shalom ✡️

★★★★★ Robert, Aug 2023

You're going to find a little bit of everything, here. From current manga runs to highly sought-after out-of-print hardcovers. There is a kid's section, new releases (weekly, unless stated otherwise), and a LQBTQIA+ section, too.

★★★★☆ Marcus, Jul 2024

Great selection, very welcoming personals and fun to browse around. Didn't find what I was looking for, but liked it!

★★★★☆ Yan, Jul 2023

Friendly staff, decent comic selection, limited but high quality manga selection available. Mtg and yugioh cards were available as well. There are some arcade machines in the back but none appeared to be operational on my last visit.
