From Google reviews

I've been going to Big Planet for years. The old location was my shop of choice downtown. The new spot is great. The store is bright and clean and well organized without a hint of the dingy shame of the shops I grew up with. The staff are knowledgeable, approachable, and clearly know and love their comics.

Nice, small, actually smaller than I expected but nice selection particularly for indy and local books. Not really worth the trip out there if you are an out of towner...

★★★★★ Frank, Jul 2021

Nice stop. They actually have a large selection of new books. Their backbooks are not extensive, but they have a decent amount and definitely worth picking through. I was able to get some cool stuff. I love the vibe in there. They also have a lot of graphic novels. The selection is quite good.

Miranda is the best! After multiple visits she has been extremely patient, helpful, and friendly. I appreciate the modern and spacious layout and mix collection of new and old comics. this is my new local store I will keep coming to and start transferring my pre orders here!
