I love this place! The management seems a little high strung but hey, it’s 2020. Otherwise they have a ton of comics, video games, action figures and statues! Very cool place!!

This place is always amazing. The selection of comics is great. They have stuff for every age. Anytime Im in town I make a pilgrimage to this shop.

Great customer service and answered a ton of my sons endless questions. Would highly recommend!

Great local store for a huge range of comic books as well as video games from all generations. Theres some great classics and fun stuff like guitar hero all available for good prices. They also sell TCG like MTG and Pokemon. Just really great for anything nerdy!

As an artist who loves to airbrush and customized motorcycles this is a great place to get ideas we are comic books color schemes backgrounds I mean this is my little honeycomb hideout store you can get very creative its a great place for creativity and motivation especially with the color schemes new and used issues of comic books a true treasure for any artist

I pretty much love any and every comic book store. My wife was the one you spoke to yesterday about her sweatshirt.

Entered the place with a backpack, and was asked by the employee behind the desk if I could leave it behind the counter. Reasonable request, so I handed him my bag. To show I wasnt being sour I jokingly asked if he was going to steal it and laughed. Someone not in the conversation took it upon themselves to tell me if i didnt like it then I can get out of his store. Very sad to know Ive been supporting this company for over 3 years and will be disrespected for making a joke by someone thats not in the conversation Im having with an employee. I highly recommend everyone go to Illusive Comics & Games, where they treat customers with respect and value their business.

F this place is basically an adult dressed as a kid, they are scared of covid, can’t even look through singles because they are to lazy to disinfect every card like if your life depended on it, while you can go to target or any other convenience store and browse and touch items lol, what a joke, lost my support y’all can drown

Like a Time Tunnel. Support Small Biz

Reasonably priced merchandise and a lot of it. They have games for every video game console both new and old. Lots of comic books. Merchandise and nicely organized and easy to navigate. Friendly people asking to help you find whatever and answer questions. Employees seem knowledgeable about the merchandise. Theyve obviously had issues with people stealing comic books. There are a lot of cameras and bars on the windows. I was asked to leave my backpack behind the counter.

Space Cat has Transformed into a Strong Game and Comic Business!! A Cleaner Quality Store in comparison to the Old Bascom Avenue location, I also enjoyed!! Thanks for Still Being Available, CAME FROM OUT OF TOWN!!

9 people inside at a time. Great space distances in store....

We love Spacecats products and prices and really appreciate the staff. They are really nice helpful and cool.

This is my go to place when my local comic shop doesnt have what I need.

Excellent store! So many comics! If youre with a bag pack, leave it with the store manager, they dont allow backpacks while browsing the store

Quaint little shop with good variety and dedicated staff. They were super helpful in helping us find the last copy of house of x issue 4 :)

Love it the comics are nice and figures to buy but be careful when you have backpacks they will ask to bring in the counter for safety reasons

Very cool place.They have old school video game councils for sale.So much to take in as you walk around, ever square inch is utilized.Today is free comic book day so I grabbed me an X-men gold#1 and The Walking Dead #163.While I was walking around I spotted a cool hologram Batman DC Universe rebirth #22 and took it home with me.Over all this is a great comic book store with a friendly owner. If your like me and nerd out on comic books Id definitely recommend them.

Awesome place. Huge selection of comics, new and old. A bunch of vintage video games/ consoles. All very cool, couldve spent much longer browsing around this store.

OMG I need money and a bigger house, great selection of comic books, figures and games

Very friendly staff! If they dont have something you want they will order it for you. Subscription service is great, they are really understanding if you cant pick up your orders right away

I would rate this a 5 stars as I really enjoy visiting this store for Magic card bundles and comics just for fun and reasonable prices. I am rating this 3 stars because an employee really turns me off when I visit by the name of Jeremy. I asked him why he enjoys working there and he responds its none of my buisness and he doesnt like Magic cards or Comics...? Really turns me off to deal with employees that dont know how to reasonably talk to a customer. Its easy to suggest ONE THING you enjoy about an entire shop and its really not personal or MAYBE you SHOULDNT be WORKING THERE??? There was only 1 other person in the shop at this time as well. The other employee was an older woman who knew far less about magic and was wonderful to talk to in comparison.(I rated this up 2 stars because of the awesome employee I talked to yesterday, also I really do enjoy coming here)

Awesome place. A must see

Very fun comic book shop. They are well stocked and have a wide variety. The staff can be a bit weird at times, but overall theyre friendly and eager to talk to the customers. I want to point out that there are prints that were sourced online that I think are being sold without the artists permission. Some of them still have the watermark on them, so always ask before you buy.

Great friendly fun staff always willing to enlighten or just chat it up.

I love this place. Awesome products, awesome staff. Very friendly and welcoming. They have anything from pokemon cards to volumes of manga.

I loved this store, I remember back in the day when I believe this store was off of Bascom Ave. I went there and saw it was closed down. Then I found it at its new location and I was real happy. This is where I bought my Nintendo 64 console. Im glad I got my hands on this system again cause I had to sell my original one a long time ago. Havent been the same since. I went here on a whim one day, and saw that they had games for the system, and found out that they had one available, bought it on the spot. No regrets, totally works. Going to keep coming back every once in a while. Might even pick up some Deadpool comics.. Great spot, definitely a go to spot.

Excellent collection and knowledgeable staff.very friendly and informative.

I enjoyed browsing all the comics collection at SpaceCat store. The staff is really helpful and help me pick a comic for a friend. Thanks!

The guy that owns the place is a rude and as hole

The people that work there are nice and helpful. They dont talk down to you if you arent knowledgeable about comics. They help you find what suits you best. Its kind of a small store, but I love coming here. I recently unearthed an old stash of comics and cards and they gave me great ideas on how to price and protect my items.

The staff is very friendly. I even met the owner and he was pretty funny and friendly as well. I really like the store. I have not been into a comic book store in a while and it was nice to go into one and experience the atmosphere. I even had a nice conversation with one of the customers. I highly recommend this store.

The perfect LCS

Great and friendly service. A couple visits ago the power went out, but they got a backup generator running almost immediatly. Definetly recommend!

Great selection of current issues and variant covers as well as interesting back issues.

Great bookstore! In CA there isnt to many book shops around with great gems. I bought some of my collectables from this place, I always come back for more. Worth checking out most definitely !!

Check the price of the comic before you buy. They like to added on a few more dollars than then actual price of the comic

Took advantage of the fact I needed cash for my mtg cards. Did not give me a fair price and played stupid about the cost of the cards.

My first time in, the people and staff were amazing, I went in for the free Commander gameplay at 7:00 on Saturday and the people there were kind enough to not kill me instantly like they could have. Great environment lots of great people, would 10/10 recommend.

Great selection of books, indie and from the big 2 as well. A lot of pop culture memorabilia ei videogames old and new. Definitely a place i would be coming back to often. Be forewarned though parking is smallish, and the entrance and sign is kinda small from the street so you might miss it. Otherwise a good spot for pop culture things.

Great comic shop, friendly people

Customer service was good. I came in with not very much but high hopes that they would buy what i had. Even tho he knew he didnt want it, he still made effort to help my situation that im in.. for that 5 stars & a new customer!

It came up in a search for old antique magazines. But we ended up getting an old comic book. Which is what they are known for. So in case you search for antique magazines and get space spacecat it really is old comic books

I really like and the are nice and the place is cool

The people there are not so friendly or sociable. In fact, they charge a lot for a book when you can get it really cheap on Amazon. Really...I wouldnt recommend this store as your first choice.

Best comic book store Ive been too! Great prices amd friendly staff

Good all around comics

Great people behind the counter. Friendly, courteous, knowledgeable. The owners are very nice.

Selection is good, but prices way too high on video games and consoles. Tried to reasonably negotiate and they did not budge (items that are half the price on ebay).

These guys helped me get the comic I wanted when other shops failed. The store is a hidden gem with friendly staff. Definitely my new go-to comic store and no longer just some vagrant comic buyer.

This is now my favorite comic book store. Friendly, knowledgeable staff and huge selection. Also some fun retro items. Definitely worth a visit!

Vast selection of collectables and Comics,comics and more comics

I hear owner is cool . Staff was a little standoffish. Acted like it was a bother to ask about comics. No big deal . Nice store big selection . Free parking

Ice cream videos gamers and comic book collectors

Great place for friendly faces, great comics and exciting games of magic!

Great place to find gifts for any pop culture enthusiasts. good parking and wide store full of video games (retro), collectible figures and a great assortment of comics from variants to the older ages. plus the staff is down to earth.

Cool store with lots of inventory.

Tnx space cat for this toy I really love it a lot.

Adequate comic shop

Nice cozy store with a huge selection of comics and games. The store is lit well, easy to browse, and the staff is very friendly and happy to help you. They moved locations a while ago so some of the old reviews are no longer valid. Im not into comics but the selection is diverse enough to make me interested. The prices seem fair aswell. The old game consoles are interesting too, so if youre into that youre bound to find something youll like. Also, the Friday Night Magic community is excellent and managed well. Only problem I can see is the store is quite small, so sometimes its hard to navigate when it fills up for events. I got turned down because the midnight event was filled up, but he was very generous in his apology and I was happy to come the next day for another event. Space cat is a great store for any comic/retro game/magic the gathering enthusiasts!

Great selections classic games

The owner doesnt actually care about customers he only cares about making money, also hes kind of a creep.

Amazing place, staff is really friendly and they have a great variety of comics. I really only expected comics but theres more to it then that. Im really looking forward to going there again and if youre thinking about going to a comic shop I high recommend this one.

AWESOME!The people were nice, and i got a couple games and a console. They all work perfectly.Its been two years and I would like to update my review:I have been going there often and I have never had any issues with anything ive bought or sold. It is an amazing store, and even after they changed locations they continued to be helpful and kind. Thank you.

Nice little comic shop. Happy to support small businesses :)

Original review: It was a great store. A large selection of books, video games, and cards. The person behind the counter was also very friendly.Edit: We preordered 2 books. However, when we contacted them to check the status of the orders they did not respond. We did so 1 time for 4 days in a row. On the 5th day we had enough and decided to cancel, of which we got no response. 2 weeks later the owner contacted us telling us the books were in. We told him 2 weeks earlier we sent him a cancellation request. He got mad and said we were his most uncooperative costomer in 15 years. He is the worst owner I have ever seen and we will not be returning again. We ended up paying him for the books so he would shut up.

Friendly staff huge selection

Very big & lots of cool stuff !!! Cant wait to go back

Rude staff, crammed so full it is hard to really see what they have in stock.

Huge selection of cool geeky stuff. They even have rare memorabilia toys comics and games. Highly recommended for anyone.

Went there a couple days ago (7/29/15) and after taking a moment to find it as I didnt see the sign out front. Inside is a little crowded but thats only because they have a LOT of stuff, which I love. Their back stock is amazing and almost solely what I bought, sadly I wasnt feeling well and was unable to go threw it all as there was so much, my friend and I plan to go back in a week and a half or so! Its much better then what Monterey has to offer me and Santa Cruz has to offer her.

Great store for any geek/nerd would reccomend this place even to just check them out.

This space is a bit hard to find if you dont know exactly where, but they carry a lot and deal with old video games and some vintage toys. Staff is helpful and real cool place to grab what you need.

My son loved it and I remember it from back in the 80s. Lots of cool stuff for any age.

Owner was extremely rude after waiting for a while he treated me like I was a bother he was more concerned he needed to eat his lunch rather that help me when he just told ne to come in after speaking with him on phone prior.

A really cool, fresh store with lots of toys, games, albums and movies you dont find at other shops. The prices are fair. The staff is friendly and welcomes veteran and new readers of all ages. They support indie creators. And YES they have Cathair Apocalypse!

This is one of those quintessential Comic Book Stores. The staff was nice, knowledgeable and helpful!

Huge selection of comics, graphic novels, old video games and MTG. Fantastic staff.

Nicer comicbook store in the area

Great vintage game shop

I love the set up in there because it feels like you are walking into a comic shop from some movie set. i ended up spending around 96 dollars that day and it was allll worth it. the girl wearing purple pants and the other girl with the glasses were awesome!

Good selection of new and used books.

What a great little tucked away shop. Surprisingly large on the inside, they have more choices than I could think of and some great stuff. I walked in just killing time and walked out with something I could not wait to read.

Been to many shops, but this one has a very wide selection of comics. You can get lost in here for hours. They also have retro games.

Had a great collection of action figures.

Its okay but it used to be great back when Peter was there. Service and selection have gone way down hill.

This place has a funky comic book shop vibe that I wholeheartedly endorse.

Nice comic books store with huge display of key issues. Owner and staff are very helpful.

Best local comic store :)

I started coming here around January this year, and its become a weekly (sometimes biweekly) trip for me and my friends. Everybody there is great and knows their stuff; there have been some great conversations and recommendations for books, and our first impressions of the store were what kept us coming back. Always a highlight of my week.

Funky selection of vintage games and comics

Lots of great back issues and a good selection of new books

I just called to ask a question about buy/selling Yugioh cards. Person who answered, “sometimes.” I then explain that im trying to get out of the game and asked if they’ll buy 9 cards totaling $230 on TCGplayer (these are new and meta relevant to the game), person said, “that’s ridiculous, i could go and buy that directly.” And something about a buy price. To which, I admit, I should have taken into account. I thank them for the answer saying that’s good to know. However, under that person’s breath, just as i was about to hang up, he called me “insane”. Calling me insane for asking a question? Okay.

Used to love it here, but with the new location I feel like this place has changed.

I started going to SpaceCat when it was still on Bascom Ave and I was amazed at the size of store and the amount of Comics, TPBs and Toys available. They staff has always been friendly and helpful when looking for things. The new location at 1415 W San Carlos St. seems a bit sketchy from the outside as its somewhat tucked away from the main road and has bars on all the windows. The inside is not as roomy as the old location but it works well and I was able to find my way around. Looking forward to setting up a few subscriptions.

Made me wait 30 minutes while their buyer played Magic, only to offer $2 for a brand new game.

Good selection, plenty of video games old/new/imported, as well as comics and used manga.

A bit on the pricey side when it comes to variants. Found several stores carrying the same variants for face value and here they mark them up several dollars.

The staff here was friendly amd helped me find everything i was looking for.

Great comic selection and, most importantly, friendly and knowledgeable staff who make us feel comfortable without hustling and allow us to take our own time browsing and selecting comics, while also offering great suggestions.
