Excellent friendly service and a packed store full of surprises! It was a joy to stop in here and I'll be back. It's very close to the ferry building! read more

Great place with lots of character. They have a ton of stuff you probably won't find elsewhere and the prices are often lower than what you'll find online. Great for fans of comics, horror, wrestling, sci-fi, movie collectors, etc. They have a cool local writers section too. Owner is really nice and helpful, very casual atmosphere. It's a good afternoon trip due to all the nearby restaurants, bars, the mall, theatre, baseball field, museum, ferry station, etc. read more

Hypno-Tronic Comics - My latest haul. - Comic Books Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Literally loved it here. Going back to stock up before i head back up to college. Found it walking around and never forgot this place.

It's hard to find a place where people love what they do, this is one of those places. They have a wide range of comics, toys, and some amazing t shirts!!! The owners are sweet and help you find what you need, their prices are great, most of all I love their service. I order comics from them all the time, and they mail it to my place, it's great and honestly I never feel that I'm getting ripped off. I moved from Staten Island and that one place I always miss, a sanctuary for all geeks, freaks and nerds a like!!! read more

Hypno-Tronic Comics - They also sell their own t-shirt which I proudly wear! - Comic Books Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Few things are printed in full color and enjoyable for $2.99 that you could keep forever. This place is AWESOME! Yes, there are many comic books, toys, collectibles, and things you would imagine are in a comic book shop, but what is really special about this place is the couple running it. The owners are so friendly and are loving what they are doing. She knew so much about her shop and pointed out a few things to show us while we visited. After selling off most of their personal collection to open up shop, in the 2 years it has been there the place seems to have filled out into quite it's own collection. If you're taking the ferry to Staten Island and don't know what to do when you get there, stop by this place! Go right up the steps from the terminal. It's super fun! I am loving my Futurama comic book and candy cigs! read more

My kids and I really enjoyed our time spent in this shop. A wonderful couple own it and clearly enjoy interacting with their customers. The shop has many vintage collectibles and my kids were very excited about browsing many of them. They really soak up the history. We wound up purchasing a bunch of hard to get funko pop figures. We'll be back as the inventory keeps revolving. We didn't focus on the comics as my kids really only care about collectibles...and this shop has a ton of them. read more

Excellent comic shop with some truly one-of-a-kind pieces! Great spot to check out if you are a tourist too!

Super tiny place that doesn't look like they order enough current comics. I was lucky to get the last copy of Saga #42 on the Friday after release. Looks like they have a lot of cool collectables though and they have a great location close to the ferry. read more

Wanted to like this place as I always support local comic book stores. Went in on black Friday. The store is very small and cramped with a seeming mish mosh of toys, collectibles and comics sorted haphazardly. It was cool to browse there for a few minutes but what really grinded my gears was seeing a Batman 1966 Julie Newmar action figure on a peg marked at $27.99 when it retails at $17.99 in Toys R Us and other comic book stores. I know you've got rent to pay, but c'mon.. not cool. Who knows, you may find a piece that catches your eye, but to be honest, I felt like I had just as much collectible stuff, comics, and toys in my own place than I saw here. Worth a trip if you're in the nabe, but I wouldn't make a special trip to go here. read more

A stone's throw from the Staten Island Ferry, with so much more than just comics. Joy is a joy to deal with and will try to find you anything you need and probably succeed. Great selection. Love this store. read more

I'm a big Star Trek Fan. This store had action figures, t shirts, novelties and more to add to my collection. I loved browsing at Hypno-Tronics Comics. It's the kind of store you can get lost in - there's so much to look at. I find something cool every time I go there. The owners are super nice and knowledgeable. Hypno-Tronics Comics - Live long and prosper! read more

I ran in there one night and was looking to buy something real quick, I love supporting small comic comic stores. When I walked in a lady there said "we're closing" I thought in my head that maybe that meant I had a few minutes to look and get something. Instead I got a stare and a "get out, I said we're closing" vibe. If she was in a hurry to leave, she could have asked me what I was looking for or been helpful to expedite my purchase. I'm by the S.I ferry often so I'll give them another shot soon. What separates big stores from small businesses is customer service, They could've locked the door if they were done for the day and didn't to be helpful. read more

Awesome store great selection collectables old and new and some hard to find stuff if your my age (40's) when you walk in it will remind you of the thrill you got when you where a kid old time NYC feel.. the way a comic shop should be top notch! read more

Small gem hidden on Staten Island, we went on the ferry and found this not too far! The owners are amzing people, who me and a friend had great talks with about multiple subjects, from 80s movies, to comic books, to Sherlock and Doctor Who. I'm bringing with me next time, more friends and money. Because they have that wonderful homey comic book store that I love. read more

Comic books and movie memorabilia, obscure collectibles, action figures, adult clothing and cartoons galore, Hypno-Tronic comics is strung with favorite pastimes and character logos, threaded through book pages and fashion along the walls. With art studio lighting and an excellent sound system, it's full of personality, with welcoming-- vivacious-- owners who are very good at finding whatever collectible or comic you may be searching for. Straight up the stairs and across the street from the tourist-friendly Staten Island ferry, it's easy to find for the non-native New Yorkers: right across from city hall, and up the block from the Children's Museum. Prices are very reasonable, and service is extra-mile exceptional. My favorite gimmick in the window is the mannequin named "Hyptronica." She's a statue for the store, and is dressed in a seasonal costume with one unchangeable accessory: a pair of gun stripper heels, worn like ruby slippers. I recommend this store whether you're in Staten Island or shopping online. There are few store owners and managers that are as knowledgeable about merchandise and comics as Ed and Joy. read more

Super helpful staff when you need recommendations on buying for kids--boys and girls.
