What a unique comic store. Didnt even buy anything this time around, but a fun atmosphere, helpful staff, and many unique items and comic collections

Doesnt focus on old comics like the name would make you think. Have mainly marvel and dc comics.

The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. And if you call ahead, they can let you in the side door (along 12th Street), if you need wheelchair access.

Very friendly. I was in town from Ohio and thought I would stop by and check it out. Its worth checking out. Ill be stopping in again when Im in Altoona.

You will never find a friendlier lgs or a more respectable owner theres not alot worth seeing in altoona but this is worth a look

My grandson had a great time in there and the owner was great with us!

I got three comic books for a nice price. The store is really clean and set up for easy browsing. I would definitely buy from this place again.

Called to ask about an item, when I told the guy what I was looking for he hung up on me

I was in there a couple days ago, the shop is gorgeous. Like youre stepping in a mini comic-con. The owner is friendly, informative but not the least bit pushy. They had everything I needed and more. Thank you for helping me complete my collection.

This is an actual historic bank complete with a heavy old bank vault. There is a great assortment of comics, memorabilia, and a thriving gaming community. I want to move to Altoona now. 💜

Stopped by this store randomly on my way through town. Very cool setup inside of an old bank. Seems like they have a focus on MTG. They had lots of cgc graded comics. I was lucky enough to grab a couple signed copies of the new TMNT story line.

Great selection of comics and figures, also a ton of signed slabs, on top of everything, Neil is very helpful and all around great guy.

Felt like a museum rather than an actual store. If I could give lower than 1 star I would. The R/C cola of comic book stores

Great shop!

Play card battles, chess club and comic books and collectibles!!🃏🃏🎩💣💥💫

Great place! Owner is awesome to work with!

Been going to this fine establishment ever since it opened. Neil, the owner, provides a great environment and community for many popular card games and comics. Has a wide variety of comic books, collectible figurines, cards, and even graded comic books. Highly recommend The Comics Vault to anyone, young or old. Amazing place overall.

Awesome comic shop. Great, friendly people. Awesome opportunities to get signatures from top people in the comic industry. All around one of the best comic shop Ive ever been too.

An amazing selection! Fantastic comics, incredible memorabilia. Cant recommend this place enough if you enjoy comics, SciFi, etc.

Neil is one of the most humble, yet amazing shop owners in downtown. You wont be disappointed if you shop here. Hes knowledgeable, friendly and creates an amazing playing atmosphere for locals.

1 of the Best places in the comic industry the set up is extremely thoughtful and well done Better than most stores combined.

This place always has what Im looking for, but on the off chance he doesnt, hes happy to try and get it for you. He hosts trading card game nights and tournaments. He is always having a drawing for awesome loot. The atmosphere is so nerdy and inviting. I love it! I go multiple times a week.

The owner is a superb host with a warm personality and the store has a friendly air to it with many happy customers myself included.

Great place..Lots of good stuff. If you a comic lover and you in Altoona, PA this is a must stop in place. I dont live here but I know Im coming back and buying lots of goodies..friendly and nice owner by the way..and as my daughter mention to me. Lots of signer happening there..

Love it there! I found an original in box selfie action figure, from final fantasy 8 there!!

Former corner bank so very nice location. Lots of figurines & comics. Friendly staff.

Great place to geek out. Lots of comics, lots of cool collectibles. Nice people too

Good variety of comics. Well kept and organized. The fact that the madman who owns this store even decided to have it in a former bank deserves a 5 star rating.

Really great place took my son and we bought some really nice comics for great prices and the dude was really helpful

The comics vault is the best local comic shop in the area! Neil provides amazing customer service and has a large amount of comics and collectibles, that will satisfy the hunt for many fans. I wish I could give 10 stars

Nice store with a wide variety of comics and collectables. Also a lot of fun events like Pokemon club and Magic The Gathering events. Highly recommend!

A great store! A great selection of books and the owner is superb in his willingness to help you find exactly what you are looking for. Ill shop here for years!

Unique setting with the vault, lots of great comic art on the walls, with statues and a load of great books.

Great atmosphere and great people running it. Awesome selection. Cool place to hang out

Very cool comic shop with a collection of back issues as well as new comics, toys, t shirts, etc. Owner is extremely nice and helpful - obviously a fan of comics and pop culture himself. They run Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, chess, and other gaming on a weekly basis and occasionally bring in comic creators to do assert and sign autographs. Everything a comic store ought to be.

Great place and service! Neil is phenomenal and knows his stuff. Great for kids and adults. Something going on almost every day.

Great selection and pretty good prices

I am a big nerd, so I love stuff like this.

Great place to find the good stuff. Fun decor. Various clubs available. Lot of fun.

Great place to buy comic books. Especially by Brian Middleton

Very nice to see an old building get some new life put into it. And yes,there is an actual vault. If you like comics or playing Magic the gathering, pokemon, or yu-gi-oh card games this is a place to check out.

Great customer service, awesome historic location, great selection of comics, trading cards, pop vinyl, and board games.

Great place to share ideas along with a vast selection of comic books and toys for kids.

My favorite shop to play magic the gathering at. Owner is super friendly. Store is amazing to walk through and check out. An old bank thats been turned into an institution for comic memrobila and collectables. Check out the old bank vaults located around the shop and look at all the statues, and custom pieces and covers done by numerous artists.
