When I came in the guy asked me how I was doing and if I needed anything and I told him I was interested in finishing my collection of age of ultron. He was very helpful in making sure that I got what I was looking for even if he didn’t have it. People give this place a bad review when they have a bad experience but not enough people give good reviews when they have a good experience. Great store and mostly newer comics so always something to read.

Worst Free Comic Book Day EVER! First the owner makes everyone wait until noon to distribute«Free» books. Then informs you that you only get ONEFREE, the rest you have to pay for. What a joke. I’ve participated in Free Comic Book Day since 2010, and every time I have come out with at least 5 Free books. Bat Comics should be banned from participating in Free Comic Book Day because they obviously don’t get it. Today is not the day to be cheap. Oh and everything in that store was outrageously priced. The people of Chico deserve better.

Went in looking for an M15 deck builder kit. After a quick look around the store, I asked if they had any, which they didn’t. No big deal, until the owner asked in a condescending tone«do you even KNOW what’s in a deck builders kit?» I told him«a bunch lands, commons and uncommons, a few rares and boosters». He flat out replied«it does NOT have any boosters». I got what I was looking for from another store and low and behold, it had boosters and everything else I expected. It’s hard to give the store a bad review since I’ve been shopping there for years, and his employees are actually really cool and helpful. But with so many other options in town, there’s no reason to put up with bad service.

If you are looking for toys and collectibles and stuff, this is the place to go. Their prices tend to be a bit on the high side but I guess thats what you have to pay for being in the middle of downtown. If you want comics, eh, there are better places in Chico. Their comics selection is merely okay and they don’t have much at all in terms of back-issues or vintage comics. The staff is a mixed bag. I’ve had some people be quite nice to me and some be complete jerks. I’ve been going there off and on for about 12 years(since they were still on main street, across from The Bookstore) and they still don’t even know my name :(

Good place to go for unique board games and action figures.

I feel like one day there will be some weird little toy or something I need and I will know exactly where to go. Chock full of goodies and fun stuff, like the knick-knack section of an Urban Outfitters. Just remember: they’re graphic novels, not comics; and it’s pronounced«mahn-guh.» I’d be afraid of a broadsword to the dome for either of these mistakes.

I liked this store quite a bit. They had a LOT of toys, and as I try to stay faithful to my regular shop(only my regular shop doesn’t carry toys), so toys are typically what I peruse in other comic shops. The girl behind the counter watched us with friendly interest, when she wasn’t flipping through the comic in front of her, and I knew that she was very willing to help if we happened to have a question. The selection of comics seemed typical, nothing too obscure, but certainly nothing blatantly missing.

Very helpful staff that allows you plenty of time in the store. Their selection is not the best, but they do have part of the store dedicated to gamers’ games and that was good to see. I was tempted by the Mr. Pink figure!

I give it two stars because one time that I have been in there I had a decent experience. Besides that, the only thing I find here are generally rude, pretentious, and irritating staff. Trying to find the Top Shelf comics there, I picked up one and began leafing through it deciding whether or not I wanted to purchase it. I had a worker come up to me and say, «We don’t let people read the entire comic here.» Erggg, okay, I didn’t read the whole thing I looked through three effing pages. I took my comic obsession to the rad comic book store in Berkeley. Screw you guys.
