They have a spectacular selection of new and classic comics and manga series, board games, fun memorabilia, and just a lot of cool stuff in general. Today, I used their online store to order a new game for me and my quarantine friends to play and they delivered it the same day! Even with a great shop run by just a handful of really cool folks, I didnt think it would be done so quickly, so I am very very impressed! This is a business that deserves your support! Other highlights include transparency about their abilities to deliver outside of Bellingham, easy shopping, AMAZING selection of table top games and other nerdy endeavors. My only complaint is that for whatever reason their online shopping platform was difficult to use on my phone, which isnt their fault at all. Love this place.
Locally owned comic store with lots of history and knowledge. The staff here know their stuff and will give you great ideas if you are looking for something new or just some suggestions. They have a very large selection of new and old as well as many publishers. You can spend your whole day just looking at the selection and the staff will answer any questions you have. They also have a good selection of nerd stuff if you are looking for more. They often host games or trivia events which is a great community builder. Love this shop.
Fantastic place. Great prices. Huge selection. Cant wait for covid to be over missing weekly comic shopping
They canceled three orders in a row with no explanation. Orders were placed online and confirmed then received emails a few minutes later of canceled orders. Need to do better job at online inventory if Three different listed items are not for sale or available for whatever reason.
I love everything here but its the employees who make it amazing. Any time I need a suggestion for a product or need help finding something they absolutely deliver. Ive yet to get a bad recommendation.On top of their incredible knowledge they are all super nice and helpful. I play a weekly game here that we migrated from another store. Not only did they take us in, but theyve been so helpful and incredible in getting product for us and making sure we have what we need.I cannot recommend this store enough!
Favorite local comic place! I love the fact that they are not only versed in the obvious popular Comics like Marvel and DC but they are also familiar and willing to hook you up with weird unique and original Comics as well. They are super helpful if youre trying to figure out what to read next or what order things going, everyone I met there has been super friendly, and no one is ever been pushy or upselling. Its a business full of people with good humor and great personalities and I adore them for that. In addition to Comics they also have a nice selection of RPGs dice board games and hilarious things that really defy description. So treat yourself and support local go to the comics place!
Lovely atmosphere! Fun place to browse through new issues without feeling pressured to buy anything. Staff is very informative.
Visited for the first time and really enjoyed the easygoing and friendly atmosphere. Everything was well-organized and staff seemed both approachable and knowledgeable. I also picked up a few awesome new comics, as well as a few back issues that I have been searching for
Great local store with a huge and diverse collections of comic book and also some boardgames. Friendly staff who was helpful with their recommendations. Always a place to check when I go to Bellingham
Kind workers, very willing to help me find what I needed. They have a vast library of comics, graphic novels, and funko pops.
I love this store. I’ve been coming to The Comics Place for over 30 years. The staff has always been welcoming to a diverse customer base and always ready to talk comics. There are tons of books for every taste — collectibles, mainstream super hero stuff, alternative, indie, and local artists. I’m so happy at the many improvements, new location, and expansion into games and merch. I’ve been to hundreds of comic shops and The Comics Place is among the best anywhere.
Whether youre looking for an odd board game, funny hat, local comic author, or start your little human on the comic game; this is your store! My family and I probably spent more time in this store than we shouldve, but with all the amazing pieces this store has to offer, we couldve gone even longer! The gentlemen working were very knowledgeable and non judgmental; as we are not fully into all aspects of the comic/gamer world, we had some questions and they were answered fully and with a smile. There was a little something for all of us and by that I mean my husband, myself, and our 5 year old daughter who just couldnt get over how much Rick and Morty merch was here! Thanks for making our first visit one to remember guys and we will most certainly be back!
Great place to visit for boardgames and especially comics, they have lots and Im sure youll be able to find what youre looking for, staff is also friendly and will help you!
From all indications Ive seen, the people at Comics Place have made it a priority to be welcoming and respectful of everyone who walks through their doors.Thats something to be proud of, and Im glad I get to support them.
Incredible staff. They are always willing to help you find the comics you want and their prices are very fair. When you subscribe to a series, they give you half off all variants and you get a discount on Trade Paperbacks when you are subscribed to 10 or more series. They are always looking to give you helpful advice and direction on what comics to read next. Highly recommend!
Jeffery and Braiden (sorry if I misspelled your names!) were the friendliest and most welcoming gentlemen Ive ever had the pleasure of doing business with at a comic shop. Ive never read a comic in my life and they were really cool about my ignorance. They even shook my hand and formally introduced themselves to me at the end of the transaction. What a great experience.
I highly recommend! It is an art lovers Paradise. Theres so much beyond comics here. Super friendly and helpful staff!
Such a kick a** comic book shop! Definitely coming back again. SOON!!
Best place in town to get your comics and gaming supplies. The store also hosts a space for different gaming groups to hold weekly matches. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Clean, friendly and major cool selection! Groo fan♡
I love this place. The staff is friendly and helpful and their selection is great. Some rare finds here.
Excellent local spot for all manner of good things, in a beautiful building to boot.They also have a great end of year sale in late December with some great deals on games, comics, dice, anything you could want from a comics shop and more.Also, the alcove right outside their doors has excellent acoustics for practicing your maniacal laughter, should you have use for such practice.
Love this place! I could spend hours and thousands of dollars there!
This is a great and welcoming shop for all your comic and nerd needs.
Amazingly helpful staff, expansive selection, everything you could ask for in a comic shop.
The staff are an incredible group of fun and helpful people, they remember my name and the books I like and are always suggesting books I might like based on artists or writers Ive read.Favorite place to get my books!
Great selection! Awesome staff, great location! Love it here♡
I accidentally put two of the same volume for a graphic novel in my order, when I ordered only one of every other volume. They caught my mistake and called me, fixed it, refunded me for the extra, and then delivered it, all in the same day. These guys rock.
I went there with my kids (12 and 15) and the staff was great, so kind to invite us to their game room upstairs. Just the fact they were accommodating and pretty much normal good people... but what superhero or super villain lurks under their clothes is obviously a nice one
Bellingham gem! They are always helpful and very knowledgeable.
Always welcoming and stocked. The guys are super helpful and it’s always great to come inside and grab a few comics.
Fantastic selection, staff, and atmosphere
Always have just what Im looking for. Magical shop
Always fun to go to a nice store with very knowledgeable people. When i was last there i brought in some older comics from my grandfathers collection. They were able to price them for me and buy them from me if i wanted. Their still in my collection but, its nice to know what they are worth.
Great selection of board games, comics, and assorted geekery. Pinball tables in the back, any room for you to play board games, RPGs, etc, upstairs (check the schedule).
Game night on friday is our regular friday night event. Employees are very helpful. A very fun place to be
Nice people, nice place! Great games Ive never seen before!!
Great comic book store, where an older woman comic fan is made to feel welcome.
Helpful people. Good selection of comics. Always have my favorites.
Visited this store while passing through Bellingham. Fun vibe, well-stocked, great layout, with a really friendly owner. Highly recommended!
Great comic store. Pretty much has everything.
I had no idea this place existed until today! Ill be back for sure!
Cool! Nice membership deal for locals
Great customer service and atmosphere. Jeff genuinely enjoys helping his customers.
Always very helpful and friendly service! We love coming here!
Great staff, great selection. Will order what they dont have for you. Plus fun community events.
Great place for physical comicbook copies, huge variety and constant comic updates and releases. They also sell nerd merch, but the best part is the staff, A+ super nice and helpful.
Cool comic store, lots to see. But as with all comic stores too Mich great stuff to find and but.
Love this place. The staff is great, good selection of new and slightly less new comics.
Great place for comic geeks!
I absolutely love the Comics Place. Great selection of new and old comics, superhero and independent. Staff is amaze.
My favorite store in Bellingham! Amazing staff! Great selection.
Friendly shop that cares. They grade their comics in house and are very accurate with cgc guidelines.
Awesome memorabilia and displays.
This place is great! Outstanding selection and a really great staff. They will help you find the comics you love.
Great selection of board games at fair prices
Awesome store 2 locations both great. Friendly staff and mellow non pressure atmosphere
Friendly staff and a great selection. Something for everyone
Ive often struggled finding a good comic to read because I dont know where to start.A lot of other comic shops make you feel like a dolt for not knowing whats good, The Comics Place in Bellingham team all do a good job being approachable and accommodating.One thing thats caused me to buy way more comics this year than anywhere else is Comics Place team members asking what other types of fiction I like and picking something based on my tastes rather than lazily pointing to a rack of the new stuff or just telling me THEIR favorites. Its a big differentiator and one of the main things that keeps me from buying online.
Im new to comic books as of writing this. I feel so welcome here (did not expect that!) Service is excellent. Jeff will always lead me to a new series and answers my questions. What an incredible place. Endless trade paperbacks, everything new, tons of omnibus selections, numerous classics, huge dollar section, and boxes and boxes of back issues. Pop figures, board games, kids books, Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards (new and vintage). Even pinball machines to pass the time. Visit and hang out.
Great people, always great help, always a wonderful experience
This place is delightful. The friendly staff is very welcoming and always willing to help you find something new, answer questions, or just chat about your days.The shop is bright and clean, with a fun atmosphere that includes the game room upstairs that is full of tables for card games, board games, and role players to all come and have fun.
Full disclosure, I work here. But I think I can say Id be a loyal customer even if I didnt. Lots of new comics, lots of back issues, lots of trade paperbacks. And a great, and growing, game selection. Plus, I think you can tell the staff is having fun and genuinely interested in getting the right comic or game in your hands.
Nice friendly service. Theyve got a good selection of reaper minis at a good price, lots of paints, and a cool loyalty-type deal with the minis. Its worth stopping in.
Everyone here is amazing. Theyve always been great when Ive had question or had trouble finding a specific book. Definitely check them out if you find yourself in the area.
Im sure their comics knowledge is great, but I need to give a shout-out to the owners board game savvy. He was able to give a great recommendation for a game that my blind friend could play. It turned out to be a fun game for everyone that my friend could play with just a few minor tweaks. All in all, a great experience with very helpful staff!
Stopped in to play pinball they have 3 machines which 1 is star wars
It is the worlds most excellent comic book shop ever!
Staff was extremely helpful! And the selection was great, although I’m not a hard cover kind of person, they still had what I wanted and I was more than satisfied with the service provided!
Great selection and always an amazing experience with everyone who works there
Friendly staff, well organized store, plenty of fun stuff
Great new location! Lots of fun items and good comics selection. Amazingly friendly and helpful staff. Games night on Friday was fun, even though we were too late to join other games and didnt interact with the other players.
Definitely the best comic store in the area! They have a great selection, and the staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. Back issues are half off on Thursday, and they even have a great selection of $1 comics! The only logical choice for comic collectors in B-ham.
Friendly staff and great selection of comics, games, and more
Great deals on board games and miniatures, and a huge selection of comics.
A great section of comics, games and collectables. They also had a pinball station
To be honest, my main interest in this place is that they offer a night a week for people to come and play board games. I do not very many acquaintances for which to play games with and this provides to meet other people with similar interest in gaming.
Went to The Comics Place during the Bellingham Holiday Wine Walk. Loved the variety of merchandise. Ill definitely make a trip back when shopping for the holidays.
Lovely store with the best selection in comics and graphic novels I’ve seen yet!
Get you geek on here. Best store in Bellingham.
Very well set up comics and gaming shop. Run by people that are not just professional but personable as well.
This place feels like the Cheers of comic book stores. I walk in and the awesome staff greets me by name and pulls out my file of tempting comics! They have a great selection, fun atmosphere, and they dont mind if you sit on the floor geeking. In fact they may even join in! Great store and great staff. I always look forward to my next visit!
The staff are always helpful. They have a tone of information and great recommendations. There is a ton of comics and their table top selection is great. I go to Bellingham from stanwood just to shop here.
Friendly staff. Cool place.
Awesome Comic Shop. Good vibe great selection and knowledgeable and helpful staff!
This is a really great store. Theyre organization is great and the staff is so helpful and nice! Its a cozy store packed full latest comics and older ones as well. I highly recommend
The Comics Place is my favorite comic book store in the city. Everybody here is really nice and makes an effort to remember customers. Ive had multiple comics recommended to me and fell in love with all of them. There are issues, volumes, graphic novels, comic history books, posters, and merch for all of your favorite comics. They also sell board games, as well as some things for RPGs. You can always find some cool dice for your next Dungeons and Dragons campaign.
I may be a little biased having worked there in the past, but that doesnt mean that its not the best comic book store you can find in the state. Highly recommended!
Love the comics and everyone is super friendlyPretty much the ideal comic shop
This is a local comic book store makes everyone feel at home. They are very helpful!
I could spend hours in this place, oh, and I did.
I had a very pleasant shopping experience here. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will definitely be coming here again :-)
Killer shop with the best star wars lamp in the window!!!
They magically always have what I am looking for even though I only read like D&D and high fantasy comics. Impressive.
If youre looking for the latest comics, trying to finish your collection, or find some cool games, this is the place for you! Whether youre a comic expert or starting to find what the fuss is about, there is no better store in Bellingham. Not only is there a vast inventory at affordable prices, but theres also a wide selection of board and card games as well. Even better, the staff here is helpful, friendly, and all around a great group of people! By far the best shop in town.
The rack of first issues is something I miss and cant find at other comic book places; it helped me find new series to begin with without spending a lot on a whole trade back. Great variety of comic books.
