What a pleasure it is to go into a store where the associates know their products very well. Sadly, this does not happen often, but at Uncanny, the associate (Meyer) we worked with was so knowledgeable and helpful. The store is neat and well organized but not stuffed and crowded like some comic book stores. There’s a great selection of graphic novels, comics, posters, t-shirts, action figures and more. If you’re into comics, this place is worth the trip.

Good store to get comics at a reasonable price along with various shirts from the Marvel and DC universes.

One of my favorite comic book stores in the country. I always visit when I come to Philly & the store is always great, organized, and has amazing and helpful staff.

Fine if you’re looking for superhero t shirts and superhero comics but the magic/gaming selection is pitiful. Literally just 2 zendikar rising packs and a box of unsanctioned. GameStop downstairs had a better selection of magic which is shameful

I was super excited go walk into this store and the outside looks great. But the inside sells pretty much only stores. Barely any action figures, a poor selection of rare magic cards. And a very poor selection of board games. It literally looked like the store wasnt stocked for a month

So glad to see that this local business has survived the pandemic this far. A shrine to comic books and geekdom, I love stopping in here when I get the chance.

For a comic collector, this place is great. They have plenty of new releases, back issues and variants. They also have apparel, comic supplies and much more.

First day I was here, no one talked to me or helped me out, which wasnt a big deal. I was just browsing and prefer to keep to myself anyway. Second time I went in (today), I was looking for something for my fiance but I didnt know what comics books he liked. The guy working there today was SO awesome, helped me find a SAGA shirt and we chatted for a while about comics and stuff, and he recommended some good reads for me. Super helpful, friendly and very knowledgeable. Wish I lived in the area cause Id be there all the time! I hope the owner/manager appreciates their helpful employees as much as I did!

I love comic book stores. This one is great and has a decent selection. They even have an MK3 Ultimate arcade to play! Id love to see some more comic-related clothing if possible. Staff is definitely in the know about the comics, and are passionate about it. One of the nice young ladies even said I looked like a movie star. Thanks, yo.

Nice shop, well-lit, good selection and nicely organized. The place has a great relaxed lounge feel and was easy to navigate. Also, the staff was super friendly and helpful actually greeting customers as they came in and asking if they would like help finding anything. I stopped here on a road trip but wish I lived closer because this was one of the most pleasant comic shop experiences Ive had in quite a while.

This isnt your traditional comic book store. Its a fairly large store square footage wise but there really isnt much stock as far as comic books go. If youre looking for t shirts or figures then this may be the store for you.

Review №31

Over all not happy with the store. They dont offer discounts or promotions for subscribers and charge for each comics bag and board. Midtown comics, one of the largest comic book shops, does both. Other small comic book shops also do this. Paying for bags and boards adds up when you want 25+ comics a month.Also, I need a new comic book shop because I am moving and I decided to test this shop out. They said they reserved something for me. One month later they say sorry, its never coming in.Store inside is alright, the main reason for my bad review is you can get it so much better at other comicbook shops.

The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and so so helpful. I needed to find a present for someone very close to me, but I dont know anything about Marvel. The staff here helped me narrow down a few gifts within my price range and that fit some pretty narrow specifications. Im looking forward to going back here in the future to meet my personal nerdy needs!

Review №35

I love the new location but I surprised to see that the store has dedicated a significant amount of floor space to apparel. Compared to comic book stores in the area, they have a great variety of Marvel, DC, manga and others. If you’re looking for a specific comic, I recommend calling ahead just to make sure it’s available. There’s a table in the rear of store designated for table top gaming. Like other people have written in their reviews, Uncanny is a great place to find something familiar or new and meet some friendly people along the way.

Traveling down the east coast, Google Magic store. This came up. Went inside, they have about 9,000 in bulk commons. The singles case had 4 cards with a total sticker price of just under $3.00.If you want to buy comics or tshirts you will enjoy this store.If youre looking for Magic stuff. Its not worth the walk through the mall.

Situated in the mall with the most retail space in North America, this little store has grown into the space it occupies. It now carries not just comic books, but also many other trinkets of comic related life. Clothing, housewares, and other items give this its nerd cred.

Review №42

This place if full of idiots. I sent my wife in with a book request that was written down because I was unable to physically be there. The idiot that was there gave her the wrong book. When we drove 45 mins back to get the right one they wouldn’t even work with us. The amount of money I used to drop at this store makes me sick and they couldn’t even help us out. I will never again give any of my business to this store of scum bags. Amazon is the way to go. I normally am all about helping brick and mortar stores but I hope this s&$! Hole store closes.

Review №45

Not a terrible comic book store but its not a typical comic book store. They have a larger selection of shirts and toys and memorabilia than they do comics or tpb. They do offer tournaments for people who are interested and have some rare hero clicks for sale. The employees are nice and helpful but I dont get a local business feel It feels more like a chain store trying to be a small business. Overall not terrible but not really alot of comics more novelty items than anything else.

If youre into comic books, trading cards, or have a cult-favorite movie / tv show - this is the place to go! There is so much fan gear youll think you died and went to nerd heaven. Im there frequently for the Hearthstone Tournament. Ask about their monthly events!

I tried to reserve a copy of The Walking Dead comics that are coming out Saturday, October 13 I have to work all day I asked them to reserve a single copy any issue. Of course they said no this is the reason I don’t go to that comic book shop they do not take care of their customers they are constantly sold out of everything this is why I use the Internet this is why your comic shop will go out of business. Try taking care of your customers .

Really cool comic book and tabletop gaming store! Tons of comic issues with your favorite heroes and they even have a small selection of manga. On the far right from where you come in there are some tables for you to play some Warhammer or throw a DnD session.

Review №75

Great selection of TPBs and graphic novels and the employees are nice people. However, if you actually need help getting a particular thing, theyre pretty useless. Like others have said, theyre constantly sold out early on. They dont order nearly enough copies for big-name issues. They told me to come back the next week for a certain issue, but they never picked up the books to sell them. Weeks later, I called for help asking about a book, they told me to call a few days later. I call back, and they tell me to call another day. I had a gift certificate for their stores, which was said to be usable at all three stores, only for them to tell me I cant use it. Great selection of TPBs and graphic novels, horrible customer service.

Being from out of town I ran into this store randomly, I fell in love with it as soon as I walked in.The service was fine, they had a telivision screen streaming netflix and had a decent selection of comic books, T shirts and other geek related things. I do wish that the selection was bigger.If I lived in the area this place would be a go to stop, but the next time Im in the area I will stop in again for sure.

Depending on what you are looking for, this can be a great or disheartening store...if you want clothes sporting your comic hero flavor of the month, they have you covered, same for comics...if you want games (comic themed, tcg, board,etc), manga, or the other Staples of most game stores...you will leave frustrated...they did set up a nice little watching area to chill and relax though
