(Update from my first visit since before the pandemic.) Big Planet is still its wonderful self, but now even more well-organized! The rest of my review remains true: it's the best comic shop. Huge, well-presented, well-organized inventory. Friendly, smart, knowledgeable staff. Found it when I lived in Vienna.
The young woman working the store was great, was helpful and didn't bug or follow me around the store with her eyes. I've been in comic shops where I'm either ignored or rushed out. She was great. Also love the way they've expanded their back issues, plenty to browse through.
BIG PLANET!!!!!! Off the chain!!! It's a shop that was recommend to me years ago but i just got around to going recently. I should have been going sooner. The new and recent comic issue selection is great! I seem to be able to get the issues that i want DAYS after they come out on Wednesday.
I am very grateful to have this as my local comic book shop. I am relatively new to the comic book world, and Big Planet Comics has introduced me to so many amazing artists and books. The staff are incredibly nice and helpful, and can point you in the right direction as well as give recommendations.
