I've been here a few times throughout the years. I love this creative comic book store. I hesitate to call it that because it's more than that. It's not your average comic book store. It has comic books from other countries and some very interesting books. It also has Zines. The decor and vibe is great.
Honestly not super into comic books but this cute shop made me want to check out some! They also have an all ages kids friendly section and colorful window display. My friend really had to use the bathroom so appreciated that they let them use the bathroom.
The best comic shop in Brooklyn, maybe all of NYC area. Focused on smaller titles and weirdo art, this little shop is perfect for people who love comics but don't care about mainstream titles. Ask about Smoke Signal! This store publishes their own comic newspaper, and it's available for free!!
PLZ visit the store & follow their instagram account (ID: desertislandcomics) if you’re interested in making or enjoying art! Rather a small bookstore, but it’s full of thoughtfully curated graphic novels, zines, prints & etc and it’ll inspire you so much.. and will make you open your wallet haha.
