Staff are always friendly and super helpful. Have gotten some great recommendations. They work with me well on my subscriptions so long as I communicate if I'm doing a late pick up. They do offer to ship subscription items if you can't physically be there.

First went here as a child, came back as an adult and it’s as great as I remembered. Friendly and helpful staff, lots of comics and manga to choose from, along with merch relating to it. Bought two inuyasha pins and put them on my backpack. One of the employees even helped point to where someone new to dungeons and dragons could get started.

There was super friendly staff here and a great selection of books. I'm not sure what else I would want from a place like this - maybe some gaming space? Real estate is expensive in this part of town, though.

Wonderful store and very helpful and friendly staff! The products are well organized and of wide variety. If you use maps to locate the store, though, be aware that it will likely take you to the parking lot of the vape store rather than to the door of this store, so you must walk around the building to the entrance.

The owner TJ is very knowledgeable and welcoming. If he doesn't have it on display that does not mean he doesn't have it. Don't be affraid to ask for the things you are searching for. One of my favorite things of the store though is how through out it there are "staff picks" for various items and all of the staff had a different flavor of what they enjoy so there is generally something for everyone!

Friendly Employees. Great for toy collectors but for a comics collectors I didn’t see much. Mostly new/up to date books with some slabs.

Outstanding store. The knowledgeable and friendly staff is always on-point and helpful - and they somehow seem to know every inch of their enormous inventory 😅! If you're in the Houston area, and you're into comics, anime, manga, games, etc... this place is a must-visit.

It's the most amazing comic book store ever! If you have never been, you must go. Such a wide variety of genres. I can't get enough of the place. If you love Sci-fi, comics, and fantasy, then prepare to spend hours in this place.
