Wish they had more indie, but not bad overall. The storage units for the back issues are really nice to look through. Everything is so CLEAN !!

I have since decided this is the best comic book store in the city . Mostly because of the people: knowledgeable yes, but not pretentious . It's a very inviting and fun atmosphere they've created.

Check out the rack of local comics near the back. Lots of cool zines still being put out in the Chicago area. Makes for good stocking stuffers too.
