We took a day trip specifically to visit this shop. When we arrived the owner, Jody, greeted us and was very friendly. I was amazed at how much and how varied the items he had were, We looked around everywhere while we made our way back to the long boxes. He has an entire wall of the newer issues of comics and the expected Star Wars, Marvel, DC figures, but he also had all sorts of retro figures like Masters of the Universe, tons of wrestling figures, misc old toys...so much to look at! While it is clean and organized with decent aisle space, I can tell you there is not much empty wall or shelf space. I mean that in a good way. He has so much cool stuff to look at! I helped my hub browse through the doz. or so 1.00 back issue boxes then moved on to look around some more. The shop does sell limited gaming supplies, but does not currently do gaming. We were able to find several items and a good number of back issues for my hub's collection. Jody was very nice and we really enjoyed our visit. We will definitely be back.
