This place is a true hidden gem. I got back into collecting hardcover books and enjoying graphic…read morenovels recently so I checked out good comic suppliers in the area. Upon first arrival, I was greeted by a friendly employee who gave me a quick run through of how the shop works. Nice assortment of rare books, comics, and illustration collections. Lots of stuff you won't find anywhere else at very fair prices. Revisiting the shop a few days later I was greeted by the same staff member who remembered me from last time. For one of the items I purchased I was offered a brand new copy in shrink wrap vs the display copy which was a nice touch I appreciated. Give this place a visit. They also have a nice website synced with their inventory you can use for faster pickup or browsing their collection from home.

Service: Great service here at the Comic Bug to help you find a comic book you may be looking to find. It is nice to have a local friendly comic store to help you find old past issues of a comic line or help you find a new title you may enjoy. Selection: Comics are a finicky priced item depending on the collectibility of the line. My first printing of the entire Batman Beyond line that I paid only a few bucks for is worth a lot more today (especially because I got them graded). The selection here is for new titles and back issues are in the more modern line of comics. Anything silver age or earlier is not going to be in the bins. Value: Comics are a value that you find them or the collectors market finds them. You will be paying cover price plus tax for all new titles.

Animate LA is the North American outpost of the Japanese Animate chain, and for anime and manga…read morefans in the US it occupies a category largely by itself. I walked into a store that carries merchandise that simply does not surface at most American retailers, and that distinction was the main reason I made the trip. The selection covers a wide range. I saw rows of pins, acrylic stands, stickers, keychains, figurines, manga, and stationery filling the floor, and the depth in certain titles went well beyond what I have found at convention vendor tables or general pop culture stores. The Project Sekai section was one of the more notable dedicated areas and is genuinely rare to encounter outside of Japan. VTuber merchandise and more niche title selections appeared here in a way that reflects the store's connection to the Japanese market rather than just catering to the most mainstream Western anime fanbase. There is also a gashapon section where you can exchange cash for tokens and try your luck at the machines, which tends to draw its own crowd. Prices run higher than what I would pay in Japan directly, which is expected given the import overhead, but for collectors who cannot make the trip the markup is the cost of access. The store is worth visiting for any serious fan of the medium, and even a casual browse tends to surface something unexpected.

Just like young mins review I ordered something off the internet from him, off eBay. From the very…read morestart he was rude, accusatory and unhinged. I don't know what this guys problem is but he's a very angry person. I would recommend avoiding him at all cost. He sent me damaged goods then proceeded to deny me a refund and blame me for damaging it. He made many threats afterwards and would not stop sending me messages. Looks like not much has changed since his last negative review. I recommend avoiding at all costs. This is the nice version of my review because there is so much more I could say. Making this as a warning so no one else has to go through what I and others have gone through. Would also give a zero if I could.

When i asked why i got a refund he said that he had multiple orders or something and it seemed like an excuse for a hot comic that was at a 50% off sale. He didn't respond. A business needs to have trust from its customers in order to be successful and this guy is UNTRUSTWORTHY. YOU make a purchase on his website and he decides whether it's a good enough deal for him.
