Great selection + cool recommendations. Joined their membership program for free and got credit for my next visit! I will definitely return soon
Today we went to Free comic book day and we go every year. The staff is very friendly and theres always great artist there to do some cool artwork for those that like. Theres great deals on all the comics and graphic novels during this time. The store is not too big and these times get kind of crowded but its a good crowded,one where we all have the same love and reason were there. Last year I met Deadpool,so cool and Ill continue to come back every year, especially since my 2yr old is getting older and will appreciate more as time goes by. Ill see you there.
As comic book shops go this one is incredible. They have an awesome selection of comics including multiple variants. They also have a large selection of graphic novels. They also have a fantastic subscription service. Check out their website for more info on it. Ill confess Im gonna join their subscription service. It is much more then the basic pull service. It also stocks all the necessary accessories for safe storage and/or display. I love this shop.
Horrible customer service & so disorganized in the shipping methods that they cover the back issue bins (which are minimal) with comic books not even up for sale yet, so you can’t even go through the back issues. Worst comic book store experience ever!I politely asked if they could move some of the new books so I can see their back issues and was rudely told “you can’t go through them right now”.
Kind and helpful staff, large incentives for repeat shoppers and huge inventory with great variety means youll have a hard time not wanting to come back for your next fix in reading material. I have a hard time paying full price for an item but this spot did everything right for me to walk out happy with something, so I got Uzumaki by Junji Ito for $30 out the door. This place is a nerds paradise, dont skip it.
Great comic store. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
Amazing selection of work, great art exhibits. Very helpful staff who actually put me in touch with an illustrator Dave Kiersh I used on a design project to great effect.
Very large selection of comics and the staff is super knowledgeable. They give great recommendations and really know their stuff.
This place is very very good I recommended big time good prices and they got everything o no no battle beasts hahaahaaa am amazed but it great place
Awesome staff, super helpful! I found a nice comic for my partner while on a trip and the employees are great! Very knowledgeable and willing to listen to help you find what youre looking for. Huge selection!
Staff is so helpful! Theyre always recommending new titles for me to check out. Their selection is huge! Lots of single issue comics and trade paperbacks. They also see art prints and some manga.
The staff was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They went above and beyond to help me find a few comics at another location and got them ordered for me to their store. Thanks for the effort!
Nice variety of comics and very helpful owner / cashier
This is probably my favorite comic book shop by far! Ive getting my comics books from collectors paradise for quite some time now and Ill probably continue on getting them here. I really love the selection they have there, just wish I had a lot more money to buy a lot more stuff lol. Plus everyone there is so helpful, nice, and well informed on theyre knowledge of comic books, I have been given so many great suggestions on what to read and what is coming out that I have never disappointed. And they will be getting Dungeons and Dragons stuff! And Im super excited for that!
Visit here at least once if you live comics
Its a comic shop!!! If you like comic shops this is THE place for you. This place has comics galore!! Unlike some shops, where they have a mix of comics and maybe other merchandise this one is primarily comics.The day we were there service was a little slow - but the counter clerk was new, so I cut him slack, because he was also super friendly and enthusiastic about working at a comic shop!
Great selection of New comics. Will create a pull list for on going titles you like. Friendly staff.
This store has a great selection of new books with multiple easy to access weekly issues. Theres a really wide selection of back trades that are well organized along with special sections for individual creators. I wish there was a larger back issue selection but unless Im looking for something fairly obscure or old, this place is more than suitable.
Great comic book store. Awesome rewards program and great selection of books. They are always having cool events and signings. Helpful and friendly staff. Convenient location close to the Gold Line station. Highly recommended.
Everyone is so nice
Super friendly hole in the wall place with a knowledgeable staff and a versatile selection of mainstream and Indie titles.Good place for neophytes and seasoned collectors who order in bundlesGood place for recommendations, especially if youre looking to broaden your horizons
I hidden gem in the heart of Pasadena! Impressive selection and extremely good suggestions from the owner.
Great staff and awesome selection. Indie books featured toward front of store.
Small shop with great assortment of stuff. Its my new regular place for comic book information from their knowledgeable staff and picking up new issues! Plus they have a great subscription plan. Thanks!
Best place in town for comics. Good selection and friendly knowledgeable staff. Make sure to join the graphic novel club to save some money on your next purchase, and if you need inspiration, ask for a recommendation. Youre sure to find something new to love.
Great place! Lotals of my favorite Marvel comics!
So good, found just what I was looking for. Great recommendations!
Best staff, best selection. Great all ages and indie selection. We love it here!
The employees seem nice. The shop is unique. The parking situation is eh...
Staff is great. Like any LCS, youll have to make a pull list if you dont want your books selling out if/when theyre hot. The internet ordering system is a little basic, but perfect for what it does offer.Sister store to the bigger Winnetka home store, this place gets big names for signings as well which is huge for such a small store.Parking is a nightmare like most spots in Pasadena.
Talk about finding a diamond in the rough this place is great I hope you all give this place a try great Comics election and the lady behind the counter was fantastic very helpful and kind whether youre into comics or trying to get into Comics give this place a try I think youll like it as much as I did.
Amazing staff, extremely knowledgeable and friendly.
Great place for comics, prints, shirts and lots of other wonderful stuff! Totally recommend! Love it!!
Really friendly staff. Their recommendations have introduced me to some really good writers/story lines. Love to spend time there.
Went there on Febraury 15th of 2019 in the morning, because a friend gave me a high recomendation from it, however the clerk a black hair with glasses fella almost felt offended when i asked for back issues and if they had a a discount when bought by the lot. He stated that the industry is almost dying and that those type of comics are no longer avilable anywhere, sInce i was coldly denied, i started checking the graphic novels section that had discount. Another customer aproached him and i noticed that he was superwarm and concerned to help this fellow. So I dont know if they judg people by how they seem or not; but definetly not willing to ....at the very least listen and analize if it would ve ben a good deal for them or not. Instead he choose to be right and lost a great deal where we both could ve walked away happy. Good thing Golden Apple was near and they really value listening to people.
First time here. Good variety. Friendly enployee.
Very friendly place, staff is top notch. They are helpful both to those who are just getting started with comic books, and those who have been reading for years. Always a blast to go and buy a new graphic novel.
Great selection of comics especially indie and foreign! Staff is really nice too.
I love this place even if they dont have what your looking for they can order it and get u what your looking for in no time and they have special events follow their instagram easy and responsive
Friendly and knowledgeable staff make this place feel like family. They always greet me by name, pull stuff aside they think I would like, and engage my young daughter in conversations and have done so much more for my family after my daughter had a horrific accident last summer. Large selection plus original comic art and frequent signings by artists and writers, as well as events every weekend in May for Free Comic Book May. A must visit for Pasadena comic fans or even if you are visiting from out of town.
Cool place! Nothing like it
Perfect comic store
Store staff very friendly and knowledgeable.
Very knowledgeable staff. I have very particular tastes in comics, they were able to understand and adapt: Well if you liked this one, youll like this one. Very well stocked, great place.
Great staff and selection. Fun people to chat with about recommendations and favorites!
Great place with lots of comics and super helpful staff
Friendly place and very helpful. I just started collecting comics and didnt know to much about collecting, they helped with all the question I had. this is the only place ill will be buying my comics from now on.
All the reviews surrounding mine have been incredibly glowing and indeed the interior is nice and clean which is the only reason Ive given two stars over one. HOWEVER I also notice theyre all from local customers and if youre an out-of-Pasadena-visitor, like myself or my cousin, the situation is quite different.I came into the store on a Saturday afternoon, April 14th 2018, and stood at the front counter hoping for assistance both to secure a bag to carry some recently purchased drinks AND to see if they held any titles of interest as the stores prices were recommend to me by others at the Monsterpalooza convention which was happening several blocks away at the time.But instead I didnt received a bit of help from the one employee working that day who openly and obviously went out of his way to ignore me and cowardly turn away whenever he made direct eye contact with me even as I waved for his help, instead running back towards the other customers who the employee began superfluous chats with as opposed to answering business related questions.I am NOT an easy person to miss, standing just above six-feet in height, and at one point even the customers noted to this lone employee to stop the chit chatting and see if the large fellow at the counter needed help only for said employee to say out-loud that guys not important.It was by this insulting point that I had waited for 10 minutes for assistance and angrily took a bag which I had wanted to do with permission first before storming out. Several days later I had a phone conversation with my cousin who also does the convention circuit and has also visited that same store and noted similar attitudes from workers but she didnt remember if it was the same male prick or not.If you go in there and get the same treatment please make your presence known and accost that same a**-hole directly so he has no choice but to serve you. Tell that f**kwad The Unimportant Guy sent you.
Awesome staff. Great selection. They have issues - and thats a good thing for a comic store.
Friendly and great subscription service. Great selection on created owned works too!
Very cool owner who is very knowledgeable about graphic novels and who gives great recommendations. highly recommended.
Friendly and helpful. The graphic novel deal is not to bad at all.
Freindly people work there and the organization system is simple.
1st time there, Ill be back when Im in Pasadena again.
