ALways looking for a cool comic book shop where people aren't awkward and weird when you walk-in…read morebecause you aren't a regular. Stumbled upon Atomic Comics so we went in and took a walk around. They have a very huge selection of everything - comics, collectibles, etc you name it. Everything is organized and in decent order. The people that work there are ... typical comic book folks. They are super helpful, but not super social but not awkward either. Nice place, inside, the parking can be a little a tight, but it's not bad. Prices seem to be on point with other places in the area. I like it and I am glad we stumbled upon it.

I called the shop to ask if they sell One Piece cards and surely they do, I immediately drove to…read moreshop and saw they had a few different One Piece packs for sell. I bought 2 packs of each one.

To be honest, dear reader, I am not an avid comic book reader! While I do enjoy the superhero…read moremovies that come along each year, and I do casually read certain runs, or listen to explanations of certain comics via Comics Explained, I do not keep up with this medium as consistently as I do with Video Games. The only run that I have kept up with on a consistent basis is the Sonic the Hedgehog comics, both the Archie run (slightly before Ian Flynn would take over) and the IDW run as I am a huge fan of Sonic. Due to this, I do like to visit a comic book store every once-in-a-while, and this is my #1 spot! I found out about this nice little spot back in 2006 or 2007 as after learning about the Archie run via the Sonic Mega Collection, I wanted to start reading these comics. I noticed this place from time to time in my family's travels to Bellflower and asked my Mother to take me one day. I stopped going for a long time, not because of any specific negative reason, but just because they stopped selling the Sonic run. Since Sonic is the only comic book that I read, I had no reason to return. I did find out about places like Pulp Fiction, but I found that the customer service was consistently not up to par and eventually stopped going. Last year, during Free Comic Book Day, I wanted to stop by a Comic Book Store in order to pick up some of the free comic books. I first went to Amazing Comics & Cards, but found the selection to be very limited and a similar problem of the customer service being poor. I went here after so long to see if they were participating in Free Comic Book Day, and luckily enough, they were! Going in, it is still majorly organized as I remember way back when, but just now with more Graphic Novels and Manga. One thing that I can always say is the best about this place is the customer service. When I went to Free Comic Book Day, they gave people a list of what was available and crossed out any that were not available, they allowed an individual to get way more comics than the previous store I went to (like 5 comics in comparison to 2 or 3), and when I was conflicted on which comic to get, they just allowed me to have both. Not only this, the main guy at the cash register, I never got his name, but is an older white gentleman that usually wears a cap, is always nice and helpful. I don't remember him from years ago, but immediately from our first interaction, he has the best personality. Easy to talk to and start up a conversation, and leaves a definite positive impression after stepping out of the store. And this isn't just one interaction, I had been going from time to time in 2025, and the attitude was always solid. They never seem to run out of the comics that I am looking for and just generally seem to be great spot hidden away in the Bellflower area. In all, from what I remember back in the mid-to-late 2000s and recently, I give them 5 stars. A great place for comic readers and worthy of being one of my favorite spots to stop by when I am in the mood of purchasing a comic.

Its a small place but they have a BIG selection. What i like best about this place is that it sells…read moreCOMIC BOOKS (along with graphic novels and manga) as opposed to just funko pops.

Toys, statues, cards, video games, posters, movies, Legos, and tons more that you would not have even thought about like cosplay items, and even pop culture skateboards. You can also bring items that you want to sell. Bring money, have a good idea of what you want, know the value of what you want to purchase or sell, and bring some good walking shoes, come in with a positive attitude, and have fun!

I definitely pictured something else before meeting some friends here a few weeks ago…read more I have to say I was COMPLETELY overwhelmed and anxious. I did look at the small childrens book section and did not end up purchasing anything as they were priced higher than I was expecting. I also did a quick walk around before letting my friends know I was going to head outside, and most of them followed me as they were also feeling overwhelmed. The one guy I saw was very helpful and friendly with showing me where the childrens books were.

What a privilege it is to have a place like Planet Books! Not having read any reviews before coming…read morein, I didn't know what to expect. To say I was pleasantly surprised would be to understate it. Rows and rows of books greet you, from $1 (yes, $1!) paperbacks to vintage mysteries to leather-bound volumes in the back and even a small vinyl collection. There's also a smattering of unique limited edition prints, photographs, and paraphernalia throughout. Pull up a chair and read awhile, too; plenty of armchairs stationed throughout the store. I found a copy of Dave Eggers' Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius (which has been on my list awhile) right at the door, and it took all my self-control to not leave with every beautiful copy of Whitman or Steinbeck. This would be such a great place to come with fellow book lovers or to find a unique gift for a bookworm in your life (or yourself). No doubt I will be back - and soon!

Comic Cult is one of those rare local shops that many kids--and now adults--can honestly say they…read moregrew up with. It's a place where you can get lost in the worlds of Batman, the Avengers, the Justice League, and countless other characters. It's also a welcoming spot for the gaming community, where people gather to play trading card games like Magic: The Gathering and Disney Lorcana. This store has been part of the community for years and is now under new management. With so few comic book stores left in Southern California, it's great to see a local shop like this still thriving. The shelves are packed with comic books, graphic novels, figurines, trading cards, collectibles, and even used DVDs, making it fun to browse no matter what you're into. The owners and staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. Whether you're a longtime collector, a casual fan, or someone just getting into comics or trading card games, they make you feel welcome. It's the kind of neighborhood comic shop that's becoming harder to find, and it's well worth supporting.

They have the latest ongoing issues from Marvel and DC, plenty of trade collections and graphic novels for all ages, and an independent comic creator display. The walls are lined with funko pops of real people as well as fictional characters, there are t-shirts, action figures and toys, and just generally cool geeky things to buy. The shop is bright and clean, well designed for browsing with plenty of space to move around eye catching displays, and the assistant was very friendly - the whole vibe makes you want to come back and support them, which I hope you will do!
