Visiting The Comic Book Shop was an absolute pleasure! Walking through the aisles, I felt a sense of excitement and nostalgia. The staff was incredibly helpful and introduced me to a new DC character, Nubia. I'm always on the lookout for Black women comics and superheroes, and this store exceeded my expectations. I'm thrilled to have found this gem to explore and can't wait to discover more. If you're a comic book enthusiast or just curious, make sure to visit and explore this 35-year-old treasure!

I decided to get back into comic books and visited The Comic Book Shop recently. Seems they have changed ownership and remodeled… having said that, I had a positive experience. The owner was very kind and helpful, had a wide selection and place looked great for being in the middle of a remodel. I would highly recommend shopping there if you are in the North Wilmington area. PS: I wish the former owner Sarah all the best in her future endeavors.

This review absolutely kills me to write. At one time I would have given a 5 star review. From original owner Fred to the Titus’, I had a subscription there for over 20 years. One of my favorite times of the week was picking up my books and chatting with the people in the store. That ended with the new owners who are more concerned with gaming than comics. The final straw was when they just didn’t order my books one week and I cancelled my box. The manager didn’t care less and let a customer since the 90’s just walk out the door. I think that says a lot about what the new owners think about customer service and caring about people who have supported the shop for decades.

This place has had a major overhaul and much improved. All the employees have always been great but I had gone in here once over a year ago to get Pokémon cards for my kid and it felt like I was walking into a political rally. I went back today and things were majorly changed. Aisles with toys, collectibles, comics, games, etc. Essentially all the stuff you’d expect in a comic book shop. Back room was much more organized than what I had seen before, my kids love playing the arcade games and checking out the memorabilia. I can now say I highly recommend this place!

Nicest employees who are super knowledgeable and always willing to help without being underfoot. Great inventory and a good gently used section if you want to dip your toe without spending a ton. Always finding stuff here that's a pain to find elsewhere and if they don't have it they'll help hunt it down.
