Not a lot of back issues if youre a collector but a very nice shop with some great old stuff displayed along with new
Ordered online and my books/manga came in today! Packaging was wonderful and they were so easy to deal with! I had an issue with payment but it was so easily resolved!! Definitely could not recommend them enough! Hopefully one day I can visit the store!
They are beyond friendly and helpful to the max! Ask them anything about comic! Amazing! I travel from northwest Philadelphia to the center city store because they treat me right, special! I am not the only one that feels this way!
Had a great selection of stuff, first comic store I ran into that has D&D stuff. Big plus. Staff was helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend.
Helpful cashier and a neat store definitely going to go back
Great comic and collectible store in the heart of olde city. Everyone that works there is very nice and helpful. Friendly atmosphere and loads of books and statues, figures, miniatures for you to get to see in hand.
Best comic book store! Super friendly and helpful staff who have great taste and are always available with a helpful suggestion. One of my favorite places in Philly.
Great place to buy comics, graphic novels, and gifts! I bought myself some books and coins while I was there - very excited about making my next visit!
It was ok. Lots of cool stuff, not a whole lot different from other comic stores though. We came on Saturday and the girl working there didnt say hi when the 4 of us entered, we were in there for at least 15 minutes and not a word from her. She was just talking to a guy in there the whole time about the upcoming Captain Marvel movie. I liked the green lantern light on the wall. Otherwise the 4 of us wont be visiting again.
The store is well lit and nicely laid out. The staff was attentive and helpful. The selection of comics, graphic novels and collectibles was great. And their online comic ordering system is a breeze for picking up orders!
Good selection of comics and graphic novels, plus some games and magic cards. The staff is helpful and friendly!
Nice shop. Horrible customer service. The employees here are not helpful. There have been times where i entered the shop and the vibe is super negative. Ive put up with this for over 20 visits, today was the last chance. I came to the shop today, i was there before 11 am waiting outside, manager opened door to place their sign outside by the curb. She looked at my friend and I, did not say hello and then slammed the door, flipping the open sign behind her. These people have bad manners. There are plenty of other shops in the city I highly recommend going elsewhere. Especially if youre a new collector.
Overpriced...Selling a Pokémon ETB for $90 and retail is $50..smh...this is how they look out for the community?...Stop supporting shops like these that are scalping..
Friendly staff and nice selection of current comics. Lots of games and figures.
Horrible manga selection, no dollar books/quarter bins because of covid restrictions??? rude employees who care more about weird political things then being nice/good people. Avoid this store at all cost and read the other negative reviews to learn about how the girl who works here is super rude.
For the size great little comic book shop on 2nd street. I would say I wish they had better signage on the building because I kept missing it and walked right past it.Good stock, great staff, really nice collection of Gundam build kits.Their membership location is even bigger by Willowgroove area will check that one out later.
The shop was great to visit they had a select collection of pop figures that i havent seen at any other comic book store. If your a collector then i would highly suggest going here they have a nice selection of statues and comics in the back of the store they also have games and gundam figures that you can build and collect i would highly recommend coming to this store i cant wait to go back and collect more pop figures i might even pick up a statue or two
My boyfriend loves this store. Vast selection of comic books. If comic books are your jam and you are in Philly, definitely check out this store. The staff are knowledgeable and chill. No pressure to buy anything.
Great selection of new and old books, statues, gunpla, board games and the staff is always super helpful
Loved comic selection.
They had some hard-to-find things and a discount rack with some decent stuff. Lots of selection. 👍
First time ever in the store today and the person helping me with my Batman comic book couldn’t have been nicer. As a first time customer I had questions about maintaining a piece from my dads collection and learned a ton about what to do to keep the integrity of the comic book safe. I was educated and cannot recommend this place enough.
The manager was the one working the front desk, and he was super nice and helpful. Any time I had a question about a comic, he had an answer, and he was knowledgeable about all of them, not limited to just Marvel, or just Batman, of anything like that. I asked a lot of questions while I was there because Im fairly new to comics, but he didnt seem put off by my frequent questions in the slightest. I definitely want to come by again if I am in the area.
Really cool shop. Nice collection of board games
Love this spot. Staff is super nice and seem to really enjoy the work and have pride in their shop. Bought few books from them and seem to have a really diverse selection, but I patron cuz its also like the only place in Philly that sells Gundam model kits. Again, decent selection and comparable to online pricing with shipping considered.
My new home for comics Graphic novel and Funkos they have a lot of statues and action figures too and can pre order one week ahead ..and pay it online so can pick up and go, but I always see around the store
Love shopping here for Gundam models, Pops and comic books!!!
They have awesome stuff!
Awesome!!!! For Any big fan go. Talk to the owner and ask him to read something. Very nice narrators voice.👍👍👍
A wonderful selections and amazing customer service!
Cute place, great selection!
I remember one of the employees here stole my credit card info to buy toys for the store to sell to customers. How corrupt is that? Fortunately, my cc company reimbursed me. But it did hurt my credit score for a bit. I havent shopped here since and never will again.
Nice little local comic store with current stock and an offering of back issues. A nice display of comic statues when you first come in the door and my only quibble would be is that they didn’t have a bin of cheap loose action figures to paw through.
Pleasant knowledgeable staff, all new comics shelved alphabetically. Always a pleasure shopping here.
A diverse selection of products and a helpful and attentive staff. But I still have to give the nod to Fat Jacks.
Great flow and friendly staff. Easy to find your fandom, and that Silver Surfer on the wall is so cool
Big variety of comics but I was there specifically because I collect gunplas. They had a huge array of gunplas from HGs to RGs and Master Grades as well. They also have a discount system where you get $10 off your next purchase after spending $100.00. Highly recommended for people who are into this niche hobby!
The pops available are overpriced, like the ones worth 6 bucks they still retail for 12. But hey I didn’t mind supporting the local shop until the gentleman working there seem like he didn’t want to be there. Total turn off.
Rob was super helpful and they’ve got a nice curated selection. Also have a good rewards deal for regular customers!
Very cute toy store for the kid in all of us. Has great toys that you will have forgotten about since you were a kid. Great place to shop for Christmas presents. Plan to spend some time in here. The shop isnt big, but it has a lot of neat stuff!
Nice selection.
Great place with great employees who are very helpful
Good selection of comics, Magic: the Gathering, D&D, and general nerd pop culture stuff. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable.
Its a comic book shop with a lot in stock. I bought a D&D book when I was there last but be forewarned its not a huge place. But they do offer a lot of different things.
Awesome selection of comics and other merch
My favorite comic store
By far the best comic book shop Ive ever been to. Even with being in the Philly area, this shop is worth taking a trip to. Their back issue stock is really large and chances are they have what youre looking for. Combined with awesome and friendly staff, any comic book reader is going to feel right at home here.
This is such a great comic book store. They have a really excellent selection and very nicely laid out. They have amazing enamel pins. Although, they are very overpriced. but they give you a lot of good deals on other stuff. There was a lot of bargain bins and they had a bunch of comic book collection sort of books that were half off. Highly recommend doing the store.
Great comic books store they have all the trades you could want, they have an ok size collection of back issues. They have a wall of more valuable back issues thats really cool.The staff is also extremely knowledgeable.
Well organized and laid out with a decent backlog of contemporary titles. No strange smells, no dungeon dweller vibe that you get in many comic shops and conveniently located just off Market Street. Its easy to lose an hour in here.
Great comic book store! Despite how small it is I still feel like I could get lost in here. They have so so many action figures and other fun games! They also have a section of super deals for comics
Great comic shop. Open and relaxing. The clerks were helpful but not hovering. Plus great coffee. Coffee and comics, what else could you want.
Dropped in today from out of town (Sydney Australia) and love this place! Great selection of well priced comics and collectables, great staff and cool music.
Always a Great Experience the staff are always able to help luv this shop
This was one of my favorite places to go when I lived right around the corner on Cuthbert street. It is fun and always had the games and comics I was looking for. I am very happy that this place is still there after being away for a year and an half.
The store felt comfortable and welcoming, very nice selection. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Well organized, wide selection of graphic novels. (And other stuff) Spent way too much money but so worth it. The staff was fun too! Highly recommend this shop!!
Convenient, nice neighborhood, vast selection of comics.
Greatest place on Earth
This is a very nice looking comic shop, that is certainly the first thing you will notice about it. You are immediately greeted with a few cases of awesome collector figures in the front cases. They have a great selection of new comics and miscellaneous comic collectibles. I picked up a pretty hard to find Thor variant at a decent price here.My only complaint is that their back issue selection is incredibly lacking. If you are looking for older comics this isnt the place, but if you are in the market for newer comics and collectibles I would recommend Brave New Worlds.
Brave New Worlds is a fun comic book store is a wide selection of comics and graphic novels. Friendly staff is always ready and willing to help or just provide an engaging conversation. If you are a board or card game fan, this is a great place to pick up a game if looking for something fun to do on a night in with friends -- they have a larger than expected selection, which includes some of the most popular titles.
I like this place, where I get my comics when Im looking for a good one! I liked Gogor series and many others
Always the best. Great people behind the counter and if they dont have it they will get it.
Best comic-book store ever!Excellent customer service, well-versed (and incredibly cool) staff, huge selection and yes, the subscription service is TOP OF THE LINE!The staff never forgets to pull a title and keep you informed of upcoming releases, that you might find interesting. A rarity when it comes to comic shops.I shop at the Philly location and will continue to do so, as long as comics dont go digital! Lol.
Nice shop with helpful staff!
Super knowledgeable staff. They will order you whatever you need if you dont have it. Recommend x100,000
Nice shop, awesome selection. Only thing that was a downside was the staff was not as engaging, unless the customer approached first. Will look to see what their sister store in Jenkintown is like to compare.
Great singles selection for magic the gathering as well as having a nice stock of product. would recommend for MTG singles. i dont know if theres a good playing experience there
Enjoy going there people are friendly and help help find what you are looking for
Super cool vibe, massive selection of Gundam models to choose from!
Their gunpla selection was pretty nice
I love Brave new world comics !!
Still as I remember it years ago. Well done action figures and a large, interesting collection of comics and graphic novels.
This is my favorite comic book shop. Love this place. The employees are super nice, and are always willing to give you a suggestion of a new book to grab, or just nerd out with you for a bit. THE BEST!!!
I stumbled upon this place one day. I was just minding my own business and I saw a plethora of collectiblesin the window. Its a well kept secret I had no idea it was there I dont know how long its been there but I had never heard of it and I love comic book places. The prices are within reason. I bought some t-shirts from there.
If you are a collector of toys, a tabletop gamer, or a comic fanatic, this place is for you. The staff are friendly and they respect the customers. 5 stars!
*This is a woman-friendly comic store and has female employees!I always visit comic shops when I travel. This was a friendly shop with a great selection of new release comics and trade paperbacks. They have a small back issue selection as well. They also have one of the most extensive collections of statues Ive seen in a shop, as well as tons of Funko Pops and some action figures, t-shirts, and other merch. The woman working when I visited was knowledgeable and obviously enjoyed her job. Id definitely stop by again next time Im in town,
A must stop for nerds! Lots of variety in comics, figures, shirts, and other merch. They also held the books I purchased and let me pick them up later that day so I didnt have to carry them around as we explored Philly. Great staff!!
Amazing selection and super helpful staff. Definitely going back.
I recently started reading comics again and trying to rebuild my long lost collection. The guys who work there are super friendly and helpful; recommending books based on writers and artists you dig. I live in South Philly and I prefer going to Old City rather than Rittenhouse or South Street. The service is that good.
Has a good selection of new and old comics, large selection of Funko pops, statues and toys. I always make an effort to stop in when Im in town. Can always find something interesting there.
Great selection of figures, comic books, and graphic novels (and games). always friendly staff. and a decent selection for younger kids too!
Excellent variety of new comics, vintage comics and bargain comics. Their grab bags are the best thing ever. I got 20 awesome punisher issues for $10.
Great place, so many collectibles, friendly staff
My go to, comic shop. The staff is very helpful and nice. They make it a personal experience, because they remember your name and take an interest in what you need and helping you find it.
This place is awesome! They have a huge selection of comics, manga, board games and Gundum! The people who work here and super polite and have mad knowledge about what they sell!
Tight but lots of unique items in up and coming trendy area edging Philly
Great place for Funko Pops!!!!!
Awesome place. Staff is awesome with a terrific selection. Highly recommended for enthusiasts
