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!

This place is invented for people with high levels of adhd and who don't mind clutter…read more It's packed. Super packed. "Things are arranged alphabetical". "OK, most things". Explore. Take your time. You'll find something. Or you'll want to start organizing. Either way, its a win. My only complaint: very DC/Marvel focused Not as many small publishers. Possible they were...buried...somewhere. In the back. Where even I dare not venture for fear of never ret...

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!

Yesteryear's Comics is what my office is becoming to look like. Piled high with comics. So when I…read morecome here, I feel like I'm at home. LOL YES, the store is small, but... they're packed with comics. See photos. And make a stop here.

RELOCATED LOCATION (3.5 stats)…read more Did you know they relocated? For a second, I thought they closed. The store is smaller but it works. If you been to their old location, it's seems spread out and not as organized. With a smaller store, inventory looks overwhelming BUT everything is closer together and easier to browse, get help, and find that you are looking for. It's July aka ComicCon season. I tend to frequent here nearing ComicCon and I don't know why. I don't buy anything. I don't see anything new. But I do like to come here to window shop at their little nicknacks they post in the front area of the store. It's also my connection to ComicCon yearly. I think to really like this store you have to know what you plan to buy.

A wonderful store with engaging staff who know their comics. Went there for free comic book day and…read moreafter, I spent over an hour finding gems. As of this post, they recently moved to another spot in the same mall, and I've requested yelp to update their site. If you want new recommendations based off your interests, the staff will help you find something you will enjoy.

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.

Great but limited selection of Japanese pressed lps. I bought a lot of albums. I only had two…read morethat I returned because they were defective. Prices vary from the highest being 19.00 to the lowest being 5.00. Hope they get a new fresh batch in soon

Lots of games retros and consoles and dvds blue rays and books in the back sure theres manga and…read morefigurines at the entrence but if you explore youll find really cool selections and a japanese section I found ps3,ps5, nintendo ds consoles and games and the cheapest being 3$ and some as high as 180$, i liked finding gameboy games the loose cartridges hanging side to side, and you can.sell dtuff here too! Its maybe 5-10 cents an item i think i sold like 8 blue rays got 1$ back about, but ykno they sell things at good prices plus clearance! I think theres records, nintendo console, cassettes its a good oldies retro physical media store. When i sold stuff i met a short black hair girl, and she was direct. At least she was patient and repeated when needed. Got my ticket got my stuff looked at and met Brendon and he is so sweet and friendly guide to others waiting in line and he told me my total and asked about how i was ect just nice dude!

One of my favorite bookstores!…read more I think I found out about them because of the L.A. Times' Festival of Books that occurs annually. They were one of the vendors, and they always had such a great selection of books. And their staff was amazing, especially working under the pressure of a book festival! I've had the privilege of being able to visit their physical location, and it was such a lovely (and expensive) visit. Their store proved on what a great selection of books they have, and a good number of them were special edition, signed bookplates, or inked signatures! Staff was great at the physical location, as well. Also, we were able to visit on a Friday for a free book! They do have special events quite often, where an author may come by and speak about their book and do signings! Their Instagram page is quite active, thankfully, so I've been able to order a few special events' books to be delivered to me ( I don't live in the SD area). For the physical location, the parking can be a bit limiting, depending on what time you go. We visited them two (three?) times in a given week and had most success for a parking space earlier in the day, and didn't try to venture for an evening visit. Highly, highly, highly recommend you visit this bookstore and support their business!

Very clean spacious retail store and another Sam Diego business with excellent customer service…read more Asked about hard sci-fi and the staff there all pointed to the in house sci-fi guy. Very helpful, interesting to chat with and I got a few new authors to check out! They even have a free book Friday shelf! This place is great! I shoulda got a tshirt

What a nice independent bookstore! I can't tell you the last time I held a book in my hands (I…read moreknow! I kind of suck!), but I do love books and try to shop at them whenever I can. I love to give books or gift cards to bookstores to children. Bluestocking Books is the kind of bookstore I would specifically go out of my way to buy gifts for people, or to (gasp) buy a book for myself. There are little cozy nooks around the bookstore, as there should be in a bookstore. There's also a section for kids, with a little table and some reading material to peruse. Inexplicably, Bluestocking Books is closed on Wednesdays! What an interesting day to be closed, but I guess you have to be closed at least one day, right? Why not Wednesday? The people who work here are very friendly and helpful, and there's just a palpable welcoming vibe emanating from the store. It's a nice place to browse and find the perfect book.

Bluestocking Books is an awesome indie bookstore located in the Hillcrest area. There is no parking…read morelot here, but a ton of street parking all around. Inside, they have a cozy and welcoming setup with both new and used books organized neatly by genres. The books are priced very fairly here and they have a good amount of books to dig through. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming. Definitely stop by and you will most likely not leave empty-handed!

Big selection of trinkets/cards with surprisingly decently priced model kits as well. The staff are…read moresuper friendly and the general vibe of the store is great. The layout of the store is super compact and cozy, and I love that they play Anime Eurobeat and Trance music instead of the usual K-pop at other stores. I always give this place a visit when I go to Mitsuwa, I hope they get Zenless Zone Zero or Touhou project merchandise in the future

Bought a Macaron Labubu from them for a 10 year old birthday party today and it was totally fake. I…read moreasked the shop worker/owner if they were real and he looked at me like he was offended for even asking. It was very obvious when she opened it in front of everybody and very embarrassing. Just know this shop is doing this as I'm sure I will have no recourse as they say no returns everywhere in the shop. Just trying to save everyone else the embarrassment and disappointment of getting a "lafufu". Sent another friend the next day and the same thing happened. They will also be writing a review to try and save people from paying $70 and getting a fake.
