Alex RiceMarch 9, 2016I love this shop. The owners are super chill, love what they do, and are always down to talk to you about comics. Great selection and great vibes.
D.L. MorganMay 4, 2014This location is a bit better than when it was in Georgetown, but still a bit cramped inside. The old location did have a bigger selection of trade paperbacks/graphic novels, though.
Angie HarmonMarch 9, 2016Theoretically has used books, but I haven't found any. Good selection, but fewer community events than Fantom.- Great selection of trades and books. Not much in the way of back issues but a convenient location for the U Street crowd.
