    This is the best comic shop in Chicago, if not the nation. Amazing selection, and some of the friendliest people. Lots for all types of people. Toys, books, t-shirts, etc. kid friendly, and fun.

    Aside from great stock of new and back issues, it's also great for graphic novels and hard to find comics. There's also an awesome collection of..collectables. Good place for gifts for comic book fans

    Extremely extensive assortment of comics available, including back issues and indie/small press. It also carries my comic, so that's a plus in my book.
