The last time I came a few months back, there seemed to be ongoing reorganization so I wasn't able to see everything they had to offer. While I could see it being a nice place to play for some especially with it boasting many weekly events for a variety of card games (Lorcana, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic, Pokemon), I felt the sealed and single selections were both pricey and less plentiful compared to what I have seen at other shops. Some services such as the charging station are great to offer especially when games of commander can take up a an hour or more!

I've actually known the owners for a while too, the kindest and fun guys you'll ever meet, shout-out Fusion and Elliot. (don't forget Alex) So if you're ever down on A Street in Oxnard, look for the big blue question mark, for it's not just a store, it's a home. :3

i can't super recommend this store to anyone who collects pokemon cards. while the people here are…read morenice, everything is severely over market price (especially the sealed items.) their bulk was overpriced, their display case was overpriced.. if you want to look through bulk, you have to ask a staff member to pull out the boxes for you! at the time i went, i probably ended up overpaying for the bulk cards i did get, since i wasn't too into it yet at the time. boyfriend who was looking for comics said they were also pretty expensive here too, so just beware. if you're trying to preorder new sets though (pitch black jul 17th) i overheard you could do that but i assume you would have to pay a good amount to do so. imo, drive 15 minutes to bam cards instead to have a better tcg experience/selection!

This place gets everything right. The selection is fantastic, the shop is clean and well organized, and it actually feels like a space designed for players, not just transactions. You can tell immediately that this isn't just a store, it's a community hub. What really sets it apart is the people. The staff are knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely care about the players walking through the door. That's not something you can fake, and it shows in how the community shows up. Whether you're brand new to TCGs or deep in the hobby, you feel like you belong there. They also do a phenomenal job supporting events and keeping the scene active. There's always something going on, and it creates that energy that great local game stores used to have, but a lot of places have lost. If you're anywhere near Simi Valley and into trading cards, this place isn't just worth checking out, it's worth going out of your way for. Absolute gem.

Possibly the best comic book store in the Valley. Been going for years, mostly on FCBD in May, and…read morethey handle that event really went despite the crowd. They also have a lot of signing events, which is pretty cool! Really appreciate that they have a very welcoming atmosphere. The staff are super helpful and take time to chat with you and give solid recommendations. Been to other stores that feel very judgey and just want you out ASAP. Collector's Paradise is the complete opposite. Layout is nice and spacious giving room to browse. The sections by author took me a while to get used to. Good selection and I love that authors randomly drop in and sign copies (and the store sells them at face value).

Uts appointment only, so when you set up an appointment you know you have 100% attention from employees who care. This isn't just another comic book shop, its a community. The support, advice, and knowledge I've gained as a member has been worth more than I've paid without question.

Like many people, I was initially surprised when Horizon Comics changed from a traditional walk-in…read morecomic shop to a membership-based subscription model. Change isn't always easy, and I understand why some people were disappointed. That said, I think many of the recent one-star reviews are really reactions to the business model changing rather than the quality of the service itself. As someone who became a member, I can honestly say the experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The level of customer service has increased dramatically. The owners know what I collect, communicate with me regularly, help me track down books I'm looking for, and provide a level of personalized service that simply wasn't possible under the old model. The membership tiers are flexible, and the entry-level option costs about the same as buying a couple of comics each month. For collectors, that's an incredible value considering the tailored service you receive. Will this model be for everyone? No, and that's okay. If you're someone who just wants to walk into a store, grab a comic, and leave with minimal interaction, there are other comic shops in the Antelope Valley and countless online retailers that can meet that need. But if you're a serious collector who values personalized recommendations, pull list management, and owners who genuinely invest in helping you build your collection, Horizon Comics has created something special. In an era when brick-and-mortar comic shops are struggling to survive, they've chosen to differentiate themselves by focusing on customer relationships rather than trying to compete with online discount retailers. For me, the change has been a huge improvement, and I wholeheartedly recommend at least looking into one of the membership options. I'm glad I made the switch, and I hope this approach helps keep a great local comic shop thriving for years to come.
