I was in the area for vacation and stopped into the shop. Very clean shop and very courteous staff. They helped me locate some back issues. When I returned home my local shop started to have issues with the DC shipments. I was informed they would not be getting any DC shipments until after the start of the year.
Pastimes is full of such great comics! The owners are wonderfully friend guys who are willing to help anyone find anything they’re looking for. We ordered a few comics from them that they didn’t have in stock, and they got them in for us plus some!
I've shopped at all the comic stores in Asheville off and on since 2011 and Pastimes is hands down my favorite. Not to say the others are bad, Pastimes just feels like they went the extra mile with me.
