Elizabeth ApollonJune 26, 2018If you are just getting into comics or not sure who you like try the top floor. They offer old time comics from .99- $5 comics from most popular characters. The staff is extremely knowledgeable 👍🏽Upvoted 1 week ago
Super organized, friendly staff and has quite a huge stock. Open pretty late in the summer, which is great if you get out of work late and wanna pick up the latest ish. Ray in the Toy dept. knows all.Upvoted 1 week ago
Chris RaghoobarDecember 15, 2015The holy grail of comic book stores, this place has any and everything a comic book fan and collector could want, from current and back issues to compendiums, clothes and other memorabilia.Upvoted Mar 31
Love this place; I always go shopping without my glasses and the staff is always helpful in helping me find comics on the wall (that are right in front of my face!)
Leo WakaAugust 17, 2014Great place! Huge collection of comics, action figures and geek stuff... I really liked this place :)
Mr BastJune 28, 2012This is one of my #1 goals. If- scratch that -when, I go to New York. I will go to all three locations. TownSpuare, Downtown, & Grand Central. Before the Empire State. Before the Statue of Liberty.
Ernie RosarioAugust 17, 2013This is pretty much the place to be if you are a comic book reader. Even if you don't want to buy anything it is still worth a visit.
Dwayne LoweOctober 29, 2015I like the friendly atmosphere and the two floors of comics and other stuff they have. And if you're lucky you might run into a comic creator of celebrity shopping there.
Chrissy NickelJune 21, 2015Great selection, helpful staff, fun location. I found a few issues id been searching for in other stores
Jumpman23January 11, 2013Carmelo transforms into a basketball machine when he hits the court. When drafting inspiration for the M9, Melo wanted his shoe to feel like a superhero suit, strapped in and ready to save the day.
Michael CApril 21, 2019Nerd central. If you have a super hero nerd question, there are nerd staff members working the floor to help you.
Luke P.January 30, 2015Amazing store! Two levels of comics, graphics novels, games, toys, shirts, and other comic/pop culture items!
Time Out New YorkMay 5, 2016National Free Comic Book Day is this Saturday. Brush up on all the superhero movies hitting the big screen lately at a participating store like comic-book-mecca Midtown Comics. Sat, 5/7. Read more
SPIDER-MAN ON BWAYSeptember 9, 2011Marvel at the stacks of comic books, graphic novels, collectibles and apparel available this haven for comic fans. New fans and avid collectors alike can swing by to pick up some cool Spidey swag.- Kevin WrightMay 16, 2015Friendly staff, helped me out when i wanted to figure out where to start. Great prices and LOTS of content
- Tim O. OAugust 5, 2016Brilliant selection of current graphic novels and a great back catalogue as well.
Joe PruntyAugust 18, 2010Order online if you don't have a local comic book store. The Online pull list is awesome. Also let's not forget every comic is bagged and boarded. You also get a discount on each comic's cover price,
James PittmanAugust 6, 2019If you love comics this place is a must see! Best comic store I've ever been too!
Jorge I. FigueroaSeptember 16, 2014There are some items tgat are suposed to be exclusives (comic-con for an instance) that you can actually get here. Other than that, Anazon or Barnes and Noble carry the same TPBs
Riding BeanJune 12, 2016I expected more from being a touted chain with their own Variant Comic covers. Has some nice things about it, they just need to up the game at the shop for more unique items.
Priscilla PetitApril 14, 2019Anything for noobs, geeks and otokus! From vintage comics to pop-culture! 🤩
Alexander OrenOctober 21, 2013I love this place, my friends took me hear once, and now I'm addicted! I can't leave the city without buying at least one comic book!
Patrick LynchNovember 18, 2015Decent selection, great location. People there were very nice and helpful. Highly recommended.
Malene HaldMay 6, 2016Not a good place for the casual browser – you need to know what you're looking for. Graphic novels and superhero comics is mixed together, hard to be inspired. But have almost everything.
Good value if you have an account here but completely shitty selection. Everything is alway sold out--call ahead in advance to verify before coming.
Jason StackJanuary 23, 2013A wide variety of new issues, trades, back-issues, and way more. Very knowledgeable employees, too!
Best comic shop in NYC. If you can't find what you need here there are 2 more locations. Great rebate program and knowledgeable staff.
Georgie CastillaMay 20, 2015Awesomeness in all its splendor. Check the collectibles section on upper level!!!
Been coming here 11 years now. Rob and Patrick are the best guys around! Spend your whole pay check! You wont regret it.
Mohammed GhaithAugust 25, 2016Heaven on earth 😍😍😍 loved their collection of comic books and action figures
Rob BabeckiNovember 16, 2011Great store. Great Selection. Just try not to go there during lunch time on Wednesdays. It's like nerd rush hour.
RebelHeart MindischiefboyAugust 26, 2015What a thrill it's small but you can see so many things in one place you can't help but feel happy
Visual overload and unknown organization scheme but great supply of comics and memorabilia.
Adam CunninghamOctober 11, 2010Check out the Music of DC Comics 75th Anniv Collection! 31 tracks of themes from Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, etc! Many songs have never been available before now and the CD includes a DC poster! Read more
My nephew loves comics, but most are too adult for him. They carry a nice selection of age appropriate titles, in addition to the regular "grownup" issues.
Jimmy KastnerAugust 26, 2014The quintessential New York City comic book store... Although I think the one on Lexington is less crammed.
Have a real good selection to choose from. I like their other location around grand central better though
