I loved this place. I visited Seattle for a conference, asked around where the best comic shop for back issues was, and everyone said Grumpy old man's. And they were right!! So many great back issue, slabs, keys, etc. And the 2 gentlemen running the shop were incredibly nice. Highly recommend!!!!

Genuinely the best comic book shop in the Seattle area, has the best dollar bins around! Alan is super helpful and will go out of his way to help find what you're looking for, and Bill does a great job running the shop on the rare day Alan has off.

★★★★★ Zach, Mar 2025

Great selection of back issues and very friendly staff (and customers). They're willing to go the extra mile for a custom customer experience. The owner has put together bundled runs of single issues for me in the past. Cheaper than buying trades and a much more fun to read. I'm always happy to support this business.
