    Great selection, friendly staff. If we lived closer (we're 2 hours away) we'd be regulars.

    It's a fine enough store with a good selection, but the guy behind the counter seemed irritated…read morewhen I asked about their pull list system. I tried to register online and ran into issues; when I went back in, it felt like more of a hassle for Mr. Beanie-Glasses-¿Chin-Strap-Beard? (hard to really remember). This kind of dismissive behavior isn't uncommon in comic book shops. Having been a regular reader for years, I can confidently say there's a certain hipster element embedded in comic culture that lacks the self-awareness that the "better-than-you" attitude is a dime a dozen. I place my weekly pulls with Casablanca Comics, where the staff are not only enjoyable to talk with, but actually remember your name and want to help. This shouldn't discount the efforts of the other, surely more personable employees--nor at least a visit or two to check out their selection--but it definitely detracts from any kind of regular patronage.

    I visited Coast City Comics during my recent vacation to Maine. It was a cold, rainy day - my first…read moreday in Portland - so I was looking for cool, fun things to do. The actual name of this place is: "Coast City Comics & The Fun Box Monster Emporium." There is a ton of comic books, games, action figures, and related "stuff" crammed into this place. There are a number of pinball machines stuffed into the back of the shop. Very cool comic book shop. I think they need a bigger space! #CoastCityComicsAndTheFunBoxMonsterEmporium

It's this: Do I have to prove myself to be "worthy" to be in their store? The places that make me cringe are the ones that treat me like the fake geek girl stereotype and ignore or quiz me. The places I love are the ones where the staff has a conversation with me, asks me what I am interested in, gives great suggestions - or you know, just treats me like a human. Casablanca has always been welcoming. I used to frequent the Portland store when I moved to Maine. I had not read much in the way of comics, and they were great to me. Thirteen years later, I am still not an expert, but my fandoms and tastes have been able to carve a path, and they are still amazing to talk to. The store in Windam is a bit bigger, and I hope it gets the customers out there it deserves. Plenty of offerings, well organized, and just friendly. The staff just simply cares about comics, graphic novels and the fringe things that come with it. I have never felt judged or less than there, and unfortunately, that is rare with comic and game shops.

    This was a great store with an amazing selection. True, their older selection is a little thin, but…read moreI wasn't going there for collecting. I was thrilled to find them open on a Sunday afternoon, as a lot of other places weren't open for tourism yet. The guy behind the counter was friendly and helpful. My wife and I found some great Star Wars and horror comics, which was awesome, as where we are staying has no cell or wifi service. If we have another thunder storm and get stuck in the cabin, we'll be headed back to re-stock. Over all, it's a decent comic book store, with a good selection and knowledgeable, friendly staff. This is refreshing, as I'm not your typical comic collector and have had run-ins with holier-than-throw, neck-beards, from other shops in the past.

    Really nice staff here, They don't have finger nail clippers…read moreor other grooming kits. Which is strange for a travel store. The prices are marked up some due to being inside the airport so understand that. They are part of the book program though where buy a book and if you have the receipt you can get money back on your next book. So if your a frequent flyer you should look into this option. They do have glasses and such which is helpful if you need something quick. Cute maine odds and ends also which are nice. Agin if you can buy them out of security just because it will be cheaper most times. Sometimes they do have sales on though so check and see what they are offering. You can buy and donate items to service men. I recommend the beef jerky if you do it. All in all if your pinch they will do. Always check in for sales if you have time.

When I asked the clerks what the name of the store is - they told me it's a "Paradies Shop" - which is the company that runs it. In any case, this store carries cold bottled water and sodas, snacks, toiletries, books, magazines, newspapers, and tourist knick-knacks. I picked up some cold bottled water here after passing through the TSA security checkpoint.
