Review №1

Yesterday I decided to go check out a few comic book stores. I made the hour drive to Twilight comics since we don’t have any comic book stores around me minus new bury comics. The entire experience was unpleasant. The person behind the counter did not greet us nor seem interested in helping. They decided to stay seated and scroll their phone for the entirety of my visit. I asked about a comic up on the wall that I was interested in buying. He quickly told me a price and went straight back to his phone. After that I looked around the store clearly lost and with getting no guidance or a “can I point you in the right direction” I left. To be honest he probably didn’t realize I had left. I will not be returning to twilight comics.

I went to check out this shop for the first time the other day with my cousin. When we first walked in the person behind the counter looked up at us and did not say anything. We looked around for a little bit and then went to ask him for certain books. He looked up from scrolling on his phone to vaguely answer our question and then went right back to scrolling on his phone. Customer service is non existent in this store. It’s just a shame someone can’t take a few minutes to interact with potential customers. Needless to say I will definitely be bringing my business elsewhere.

As we walked in the store, we were not greeted. The gentleman behind the cashiers desk did not seem very interested in the questions we were asking, and the customer service was terrible. My girlfriend kids and I went there looking for top loaders, which they did not have after I asked for it. As I was over by the penny sleeves, I happened to see top loaders in the display case, which the gentleman stated they werent for sale, after I initially asked if he had any on hand. Why keep something in the display case to be seen, and state you dont have them when you apparently do. We will not be visiting this place again, worst experience ever.

Nice little shop. Huge selection of new and old comics, boardgames and other accessories.Friday Night Magic limited drafts usually attract players of all skill levels. With the more experienced players always willing to provide help with deck building and strategy.

Although not my favorite comic store in Boston, NE Comics is still a fantastic store when you need your fix. They have so many locations, but theyre all pretty much the same - a bit small, but odds are they will have what you need. (Except for the time a friend was hunting for the latest Adventure Time, and they didnt have it...)The staff is probably my favorite part of NE Comics. They know their stuff, and theyre very very helpful!

My first impression was good there. The guys have all the latest and trending titles and even have drafts for Magic the Gathering meeting on Friday nights.

Small comic store. It has a variety of comic books from all different aspects, children, marvel, DC, etc. The store is Small and little unorganized. Staff seemed preoccupied not interested in customers. They have a small area of manga. Several nice novelty items that make perfect gifts or keepsakes. Prices are good.

Where it all basically began for me in comics! Palmer and nate were super kind and inviting to a nob like myself! They took an interest in who I liked and led me to new favorites. I cant speak any higher about this place or the staff there! These guys are seriously the best and will work to satisfy you and your needs. Never felt more welcomed than I did the first time I stepped in there.

The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly and didnt even flinch when I came in with a boatload of kids. They had plenty of recommendations based on the boys very different interests and you could tell that they really enjoyed sharing their knowledge.

A nice place to pick up comics for your collection. While it is rather small inside you will still find hundreds of comics to choose from! If you cant find what youre looking for they will call another store for you. They have a few collectable toys (action figures, card games like Magic, etc).

Great place for comics TCGs and table top games they have a creepy basement where kids are alone with creepy older men so if your into that sort of thing but not much around for food if your staying awhile but its right on the bus line so they have easy access not many other choices around but I like this place

They have a small collection of books. Good enough to get a quick fix. The people saying the staff is really nice, gets me confused. I dont get acknowledged and I dont think the staff is very friendly at all. I rather go to The Timecapsule in Seekonk or Cranston better stuff and nicer people.

Ive gone in 2 times in the past 2 months. Both time the dude with glasses didnt acknowledge me when i stared right at him, and wouldnt let me into 2 different card events. Place is a joke, not acknowledging customers is a terrible way to run a buisness. There lucky theres no local competition from card stores bc they suck
