Trip Review : Carol and John's Comic Shop. Carol and John's Comic Book Shop…read more I don't think anyone would argue that this shop is a prime example of everyone's favorite friendly-neighborhood comic shop. John and crew make this shop accessible to all ages. They have their layout dialed in, their social media dialed in, their special events dialed in and exciting and their books and pricing dialed in so all collectors can enjoy. New books weekly with some cool Facebook intros. A stellar shop cat, Winston, who actually runs things. ( it's a his shop and he actually let's us all enjoy it.) Their back issues are on sale, they have some neat manga titles and families will like the kid's area. They have supplies and probably the largest dual wall of Graphic Novels in Northeast Ohio. I don't think a review can capture the lighting in a bottle that is Carol and John's. Follow them on Facebook and see them May 4th for the largest Free comic day in N.E. Ohio.

This comic store is a true gem. From Marvel to DC, Image to Darkhorse, mainstream to obscure, and…read moreeverything in between: If you want it, then North Coast has got it! They also allow online ordering, making things even better. The staff themselves are also knowledgeable and passionate about all things comic-related. And at the end of the day, those are the EXACT type of people you want running a store like this: Fans, just like yourself. Not corporate suits or uninterested kids just filling in for a summer job. There's a reason this place has been around for decades. Comic culture may not always be popular, and trends come and go, but the quality of North Coast Comics will always be the same: Top notch!

Thursday was a bright sunny day and the sun beams shone thru the windows to highlight the comic and toy goodness. New comics come in weekly and they have a nice back stock selection. They also have prints, t-shirts and models. Check out their Funkos and models. Recently they have had some pop culture guests like Lou Ferigno, some Power Rangers and some voice actors. Follow them on facebook to be sure not to miss any upcoming events.

Went in the other day to buy an ETB for Destined Rivals. Should be $60 for an ETB, they're asking $90. They will whine about "bad distribution", yet when I first started going there they told me they have great relationships with the distributors. They're laughing all the way to the bank around the Pokemon hype. Easier to just go to another shop like Empire Game Center and get Pokemon product for actual retail price. Do better!

Anytime I've…read morebought from them, they've always said to stop in their store because they have a huge collection of Funko Pops. When I was finally able to go for a visit, I thought it was cool shop, with a nice little selection of Pops. But then they told me to go to the back room, and I was b l o w n away! Two and a half walls FILLED top to bottom with Pops. I had never seen such a huge selection. I actually bought so much at SGE that they effectively killed a first time visit I'd planned to a another toy shop nearby. They also have super-friendly staff here that made me feel like I was an old friend, even though it was my first time here. If you are a collector of Funko Pops, comic books, vinyl records, action figures, and/or toys...SGE is absolutely worth your time and money. I will definitely be back!

Trip Review : Comics and Friends - Great Lakes Mall - Mentor Ohio…read more Extremely efficient. A great description of this shop. John has everything organized so they use all the space. The new comics are displayed display well at the back of the store surrounded by the more recent books and then the nice selection of back issues. The area around the counter has the cool collectibles, some statues and other goodies. I like the old collectible comic related drinking glasses. Then you resurface into the shelving of Manga, graphic novels, toys and Funkos. Up front there are some display cases full of older collectible comics and a rack of t-shirts. Check out the pics. I was talking to one of the employees and they said that they have six local writers/artists/creators coming in for free comic book day this Saturday and John will have his convention stock broken out and set up. His convention stock is amazing for silver age and golden age and key comics ! Be sure to stop out to the mall and say hi to John and his crew and thank ls to Comics and Friends again for all the support for Neo ComicCon
