Always has new comics and collectables. Chris is very knowledgeable and friendly and can help you find things if he does not have it in store. The new location downtown Cambridge is perfect.

Excellent service, Chris was fantastic! My sons had a lot of questions which Chris did a great job in answering. Our first time there but definitely won't be our last.I found selection and pricing to both be excellent.

Chris the store owner is invested in child literacy. My 8 year old doesn't like to read and Chris took the time to ask about his interests and hobbies. He helped my son chose two comics that he really enjoyed and read them without prompting. I have an amazing time when we visit. Thanks for the hidden gem in downtown Galt.

The owner Chris is a very kind and knowledgeable person when it comes to comics/ pop culture. He curates a great selection of books and collectibles and helps foster a community for the arts and promotes literacy for young children with fun free comic book day events. Great shop, great people.
