A vastly superior comic bookstore in So Cal--it has $1 comics, esoteric and popular back issues,…read morevaluable rare issues, in addition to the newest publications. The focus appears to be comics and graphic novels. A lot of stores around end up being mostly collectibles, games, and comic memorabilia but do not offer as extensive collections of actual comics. So this store does not disappoint! The staff are knowledgeable and helpful. The only thing they're missing is a store cat (something I've noticed lots of used bookstores seem to have).

Service was very helpful and friendly. The selection is I would say broad but average, as I would…read moresay it's quite a popular shop so it's hard to keep the good stuff on the shelves. It can also get quite stuffy in there as it does have a warehouse feel to it. But I will definitely become a regular here!

I came away really, really impressed. I also thought their prices were more than fair. The comics have been looked after, organized and are in great shape. Like 9.2 shape. But remember, if you're looking for a Wednesday drop of new titles, this is not the place.

We came in on a Sunday night. My husband was looking at Pokémon cards. We asked the girl at the…read morefront for 5 packs and the girl looked at him and said "sorry, we close at 6pm" my husband looked at the clock and it was exactly 6pm. Instead of helping us check out and take the business she pretty much said she can't help and when we walked in no one mentioned anything about them closing when we walked in? Seems odd for a shop that looks like it could go out of business. No one was in there? I would not come back. What kind of store denies service when all we wanted to do was pay????

First trip here was around 2012ish and I purchased a cool McFarlane Medieval Spawn statue that I…read morehad to fly back east with... price was fantastic and service super accommodating. Most recently, 2025, I dropped in again and found a very rare Michael Jackson piece I got as a gift, some cool comics and one rare Transformer g1 hardback, and that same friendly service/conversation I was hoping for. Definitely my favorite west coast comic/toy stop!

I loved this Comic Book Store. A good mix of rare collectable comics on display (see photos)…read more Graphic Novels. Back issues. Action Figures. Friendly staff. Definitely check it out in downtown San Diego if you are into comics. Ran the gamut of affordable books to costly for near mint condition collectible comics both old or in demand.

Date of visit: July 24, 2024…read more As part of Comic-Con 2024, Now Or Never Comics was participating in the festivities in two ways - by having a raffle for three CGC-rated books with purchase of the most recent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles book... and a free pizza party. AUTOMATIC FIVE-STAR RATING! Okay, besides that, Now or Never is one of the few (if not only) comic book stores in Downtown San Diego. It's actually cleaner and more organized than the ones I frequent, but the relatively small size of the building means they don't have as much in stock as I'd like. Case in point, I wanted to show my appreciation for supporting SDCC by getting a couple of graphic novels of Trese and Usagi Yojimbo, but the ones I wanted weren't in stock. But, given how I was surprised to see a comic book store a few blocks away from the Convention Center, I can see myself probably checking it out again whenever I'm in the area.

Comickaze is a really fun comic book store…read more It is incredibly well organized and easy to find the comics or books, you are looking for. They have walls and walls and walks of soft & hard cover comics/graphic novels. If you cannot find it here, then it doesn't exist!

I have been going to Comickaze since the very early 1900s and have never been let down. You get a…read morevibe that this is a place ran by true comic book and pop culture fans. You're ALWAYS welcomed when you enter the establishment and a genuine greeting not that auto pilot hello/welcome BS most places do. I have a special needs sibling and when asked if she wants to go here, it doesn't even take a second for her to shoot up and say yes. My sister never wants to go anywhere but here, not even a second thought it's a yes. Not sure where people are saying it's hard to find stuff, but everything is so easy to find, even my sister can find what she wants in seconds. For the disabilities that she has, it's a breath of fresh air that I can see she feels relaxed enough to not want to cling to me. Everywhere else, they're inches away, here the moment we park she bolts to the door and acts like I dont exist. This place will always be a 10/10 for me and my family. My kid is now 2nd generation Comickaze, and he goes straight for the kid section. This place has it all. Their prices are beyond fair, no one else will beat their prices.

I see this store going places. A very honest owner who is starting his shop the right way. If I…read moreever want something he is sure to get it. Since he's just starting out, it is a hidden gem. He will have rare stuff that other stores just don't have due to competition. I come here a lot for things I wouldn't be able to find elsewhere. The owner is enthusiastic about what he does and I can't wait to see his store get bigger and bigger. Make sure to ask him for what he has, if he can't find it right away, he will be sure to notify you when he does have it. Great dude, great store and great prices.

Well, I won't go back here nor suggest this place to others…read more I had been a customer here for years, ever since they opened and have spent a decent amount of money in here in this time. This is primarily because my daughter loved going in here. Today was no different, I took my 7yr old daughter in. Almost immediately I noticed that they had a "Gaston" comic book which is a feature that focus' on Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. I so, ph that's cool and the guy behind the counter (the owner of the shop) stated that that Disney is doing a series on Villains. I thought that was an interesting perspective because a hunter protecting his town from a beast doesn't seem like a villain to me. Whoa, this guy got triggered. He became upset/irate and proceeded to tell me how wrong I am for having that perspective. The more I tried to engage him the more emotional and upset he became. He began to get so upset that became concerned about what my 7yr old daughter was witnessing. I stated that I was fine to have a conversation with him but I didn't appreciate being yelled at and talked over. He became more upset and I though it best to cut our shopping short and leave. On our way out, he thought it important to get the last word in and yelled "don't come back!" Well, my daughter became upset and cried her eyes out. The whole thing was traumatic for my kiddo and appalling for me. I can't imagine ever treating someone like he treated us, without any concern for my daughter and our business. I would suggest staying away from this place and the owner seems unstable.

First of all I NEVVVER leave reviews…read more I always shop for my comics between Now or Never and Comics N Stuff sometimes TC Rockets and thought I'd give this one a try since it's down the street from my job. I always love supporting businesses in the city I was born & raised in. But this morning completely switched my mind on that! Who ever worked 6/10/2026 this morning either didn't get enough sleep or hates his life. I called to ask if a certain variant cover for a new issue was in stock and he gave me the NASTIEST attitude, I was in complete shock. It wasn't what he said it's HOW he said it. As if I was an inconvenience, a customer? Maybe he was overwhelmed since there was 7 customers in the store like he stated but again he could've had way better attitude I mean it is 10AM lively up! I've worked customer service majority of my life and it's #1 priority for a business to thrive and keep customers coming back. I called comics n stuff right after and the lady was so eager to help me! Very disappointed!
