Its a nice shop with lots of cool stuff in it and the prices arent too bad. However both times I have been there the customer service has been awful. The person there will barely acknowledge you exist and acts extremely put out if you ask a question or even buy something. Not a fun or pleasant environment to shop in because you just feel like you are bothering someone. Also the temperature in the store is kept unusually warm compared to the rest of the mall. I want to like this store but the service makes me want to order online instead.

Good location. Easy to find in the mall. We were looking to start our young nephew on comic books. We were clueless! They were so very helpful! Prices were decent compared to other comics I looked at. Good shopping experience. They also have (dare I say) knickknacks for sale. I am sure others would call them collectables.

Fantastic place with a fantastic staff. The owner is super friendly, and more than willing to go the extra mile to welcome you in the shop and to get you what youre looking for. Super knowledgeable and I cant walk in without walking out with something!

This store is ok. I found it to be a little overpriced compared to other stores in the area. Employees were available if you needed assistance with anything. They have a very nice selection of collectables here. Not that many comic books though. I prefer to get comic books at Yancy Street Comics. They are much more organized and friendly there with a larger selection of books. This store does have some unique collectibles. A nice place to visit .

I have stopped in this store on several different occasions and have always had a great experience. The owner is friendly and helpful and carries a nice variety of collectables. 👍

His prices are triple retail value. He knows absolutely nothing about Comics other than to mark up 1 dollar bin type books.Then I go to his comic bins where it says $4 each. I pull out for comics he comes to me and says sorry those are for sale I cant sell those to you. I told him his books were overpriced. He continued to say yeah you must know more than me. Apparently I do because books are meant to move out of the store.Avoid his store. He also owns the garbage comic shop in Tyrone Mall as well.If you shop at his comic shop, you dont know anything about Comic prices. Just stick with your coloring books.

This place is constantly under construction/ cardboard boxes & empty display cases everywhere making the shelves unexcessable, employee (heavy male blk hair) is never helpful or knowledgeable, either on the phone not paying attention or in the back while he closes the store. If you like figures, thats your store, if you like comics, look somewhere else.

Incredible store. The selection of rare Marvel comics was like going back in time. The owner is a great guy who will go out of his way to get the comics/figures/toys that YOU want.The prices are incredibly low to the point where he sells stuff for less than Amazon!And yes, this is THE store for you Gundam fans! They stock both new and old school Gundam models for the best prices in town!

Love this place, its one of very few places to go and get your geek on. They always have good selection and are super helpful to get something if they dont have it.

This is my go to local store for my collectables. The owner is really great and willing to work with you. Also a great selection of items. Took off just one star for the days when owner is not there, the staff that is there isnt very helpful, as if they dont want to be there.

I dont know who owns this store but ever since the 90s, Ive visited this store and everytime i walk in the clerk or, Im sure, the owner is not behind the register and he is just starting everyone down for i guess shoplifters. Its sad. Surprised its still there

Bad store, managers have me wait for a product for 3hrs at one store but went to another store . when I called the guy gave me a bad attitude and then I called him out on their mistake then he tells me come up there so he can punch me in the face instead of helping me. Im lucky I recorded him saying that so I can have media after him

I was super excited to see this store in countryside mall. That is until I heard the subject matter being talked about in the center of the store by a staff member & 2 other men. They were going on about how terrible transgendered people are & how they dont want them using their bathroom. They were completely & nonchalantly discriminating against & making fun of transgendered people right at the front desk. There were also children in the store who could hear this hate speech. I will not only never return to this store but also make sure many of my friends & fellow nerds never return either.This store is a disgrace to the nerd community.

Okay this review is in regards to a recent e-bay experience with this company. They listed a Comic on e-bay that I was interested in and I ended up with it, well when it arrived it wasnt even close to being the book listed in the pictures so I called them out on it, first thing they do is accuse me of wrong doing and then they begin with the name calling and even more false accusations. I put in for a return on e-bay and after several emails and my informing them that I was getting e-bay involved they decided to accept the return but the harassing comments just continued.Was told that they had this Comic for several years and that it was in high grade condition (excellent condition per the listing) wow that was far from the truth, so I notice that the return shipping address is different than the address that sent me the book (changed by the seller after I put in for the return) and the name on the shipping label is also different, their store is in Florida (the one who listed the book on e-bay and I purchased it from) and the Comic was sent to me from Connecticut, oh yeah sure they had this book for several years NOT and yeah sounds like something shady is going on. I wouldnt recommend these people at all, just cant trust them. I am forced to leave a STAR but if it were up to me they would get multiple negative stars, if that existed. WARNING!!!!!! Dont trust this Company.

This is my favorite anime/nerdy/comic store in all of Tampa Bay! They have a ton of variety, from anime figures to Marvel and DC figures and even a few really awesome statues. They also sell gundams and miscellaneous items like themed blankets, mugs, etc. Truly a weeb paradise! And, if youre looking for comics, they have a large section in the back of their store dedicated to that.

I went in for business because I love comic books and when I went in their was no one to help me. I was on the phone when I was interrupted by the owner who eyeballed me the whole time. When I told him to give me a moment he became fussy. After wrapping up my call I went to talk to him where he, like a crazy person told me to go to hell. Tried to help someone but some people are just too warped in thought to accept other forms of personality or style. Hope youll survive but doubt it even with your poor attitude.

This is the closest comic store to my home and Ive purchased from them a few times. Prices are on par with emerald city and the selection isnt terrible. Unfortunately after today Ill never return. The owner, a 50 something year old with white hair was just ripping into the floor employee for not organizing behind the register properly. Ok, Ive worked in retail before and have had my fair share of butt chewings but this was way way across the line. This poor kid got called every name in the book from dumb a$$ to f!ng retarded and many many way more vulgar terms totally unprofessional. The only reason Ill ever return to this store is to give that employee a lawyers phone number!

Two days now I have driven here almost 30 minutes each way and they are closed. No explanation on the door this time. There was an excuse posted on Friday though. I will go somewhere else from now on. Worthless individuals!

Was in there yesterday, and heard an employee refer to the products as trash. Not a good way to make people want to buy from there.
