Reviews of Phoenix Comics & Games

Kevin Shah

Our favorite neighborhood games and comics store. We go here often and take our dog with us. This is a place where we feel like we belong. The people who work here are awesome and authentic. It’s fun to have a chat with them and learn. We support the store and order games or expansions they may not have yet through them and share love for gaming. Recommend sharing some moments in this place to find some joy for yourself through gaming, art, and nerdism.

Luis Matias Gutierrez

I love Dungeons and Dragons! Phoenix Comics & Games is the store with the best collection of RPG stuff at Seattle. Here you will find tons of miniatures, books, and comics related to D&D. Let me tell you that if you are not a fan of this game, you will also find other types of board games and tons of comics at this place. It's worth going in and looking for something you might like.

Vanessa Siemens

They had a great selection of comics and a decent selection for board games, especially games within a series (Pandemic, Clank, Dominion, etc). I would have liked to see more board game options, but I enjoyed perusing the games. The staff were friendly and helping and answered any questions that came up, even giving helpful suggestions.

Eric Bacon

When I invite friends to Seattle to encourage them to move here I tend to start with Phoenix Comics. The staff are lovely people and it is a friendly, inclusive community of nerds. Support local business, but especially a place like this. They'll find what you're looking for and help the best they can. The website is solid. And if you're into Magic the Gathering this is the place to be. Plenty of D&D merch, local comics, queer comics, and did I mention I love the staff?!

alyssa mccowan

Love this little local gem on the hill. Perfect for anyone who dabbles in nerdy things of all sorts. I was just in today to pick up my sweetie (who’s dungeons and dragons dungeon master) the perfect Christmas gift. I was on my moped and unexpectedly made too large a purchase for my bike. Nick offered to drop off my package at my apartment building for me (i live a 13 min walk away) and even gift wrapped the present beautifully. they only usually do online drop off for folks that live within a certain mile ratio of the store. Nick swore up and down it was trouble at all and even wouldn’t accept any tips. I’ll definitely be coming back for more gift buying again soon!

Breaker Chittenden

Staff are really kind and helpful. They are also really knowledgeable about everything in the store. I have a subscription for a couple comics at the store so I go in once a week and it's a really great place.

Ken M

I'd love to give this place a great review. The staff are friendly. However, the breadth of this store's RPG selections is poor, unless you only play DND. I appreciate the bulletin board and the large amount of space dedicated to live games, however, so I'm glad to see it's attracting an enthusiastic community. Consider refreshing stock with a wider variety & depth of RPG so customers have an opportunity to get curious about different RPG. You'd definitely get more of my business.

Mike R

One of the nicest comic shops around. The shelves (both single issues and collections) are filled with a large variety of comics from multiple publishers—not just the big two. I especially appreciated the specialty shelves for LGBTQ+ comic creators and spotlighting local creators. Their game selection is great, and their staff was super friendly and helpful on the phone and in person to make sure I got the game I was looking for. I didn’t get a chance to sit and play, but their gaming area looked super inviting and a group of people playing in the store were kind enough to let me watch their game for a moment as I browsed around the store. I highly recommend this place!

Z. Mann Zilla

Very impressed by the friendly and knowledgeable staff. Everything is organized and displayed gorgeously. Multiple shelves of locally-made and curated comic books and zines. There's a tables section near the back for gaming. Very happy to have discovered this place!

Jeremy Lassen

The staff here are amazing and friendly. The store has a Wonderfully curated selection of games and comics. I can not recommend them enough.

Mike Caplan

Listen, game stores like this are a labor of love. This store shows the love. We are here for a day and we're able to find the draft pre release event that he wanted to attend here! Great vibe and nice people for sure.

Justin Kim

Really friendly staff, clean organized store with some great selection and highlights. Walked in with no idea what to get, and walked out with 2 indie graphic novels I otherwise would never have bought

Shopping Bag

Great small comic shop with an active Magic tournament when I visited, all the newest titles and collections, plus a good selection of independent and local titles. Great layout and organization, which is rare for comic shops. Little to no back issues or vintage books.

Richard Larson

Great place to go for a game night. No food or drink service, but plenty of table seating and a friendly staff.

Michaela Blanchard

It's cool that they have a library of board games to try out before buying

Brandon Stewart

Awesome selection of board games, indie comics and HUGE Magic the Gathering and DnD swag!

Michael “BooBoo” Keller

Got a great Graphic Novel there. Wonder Woman. The new tree-birth makes so much more sense than the old one.

W S

Small, but they have a card game room in the back, and a selection of indie board games and collectibles as well. Very well-kept place. About 5-7 boxes of assorted Clearance books in the front. Really nice owner. Gives great recommendations. Also they just expanded!

Tim Murray-Wyles

Best analog game shop on the hill. Socially conscious and culturally aware, this shop does not assume new people are already versed in comic/game lingo and made my friends and I feel very welcome and attended to. It's nice when you can tell people genuinely play the games and read the comics they are selling.

Swain Blaine

It's good! Very informing. I haven't tried their events yet but from what I've seen, its very popular. I wish they sold yugioh cards but one of the employees there told me where to find them. Also its very clean and smells nice.

Rodrigo Forster

The vibes at this store are immaculate. The people who work there are some of the kindest, sweetest folks and they're stocked up on anything you could ask for.

R. William Thompson

Great gaming space, good selection of comics and graphic novels, and an assortment of board games and RPGs. Active community engagement and a bulletin board for organizing games or groups. They sell some miniatures but no painting supplies.

Jade Harley

I love Phoenix! They've got a pretty great variety of things for a pretty small store - comics from both major and minor publishers, local zines, neat board games, a decent assortment of different tabletop game rule books and paintable figures, and MTG supplies. plus they're friendly folks and very Queer Friendly! love these folks. Update: In the past couple years they expanded considerably and have even better selection, and the staff seems to be just as friendly and knowledge as always.

travis moore

Awesome shop with great variety of games and comics! Plus a couple tables tucked away!

Aracely Herrera

The place was smaller than I expected but I still loved it! It had your typical hero comics but there were also LGBTQ comics. This was new to me. The people there were also nice and had no problem helping me find what I was looking for. Definitely a place worth checking out and a place I know I will go back to.

Tyler Williams

Nice staff with good product selection and tables in the back to play games.

虚パンクvoidpunk

even though i was pretty awkward the staff were very helpful and friendly and the store is larger than it seems from the outside. if you're looking for manga, the selection is small but good. they have a nice dark horse and independent comic selection as well. really cool store!!

Bradley Cabe

Incredible store. We wend for a gaming group and there was great atmosphere for that. The stock is great, the board game library is amazing, and the staff are absolutely wonderful.

Adam Simpson

Well lit, clean, open, and safe place to hang out and play your favorite card and board games. They have a solid selection of demo games to try, comics to peruse, minis and accessories to browse. Many of the regulars were friendly and welcoming to new players. They host magic the gathering and other game events a few times a week

Donya M.B.T.C

It's open late. most comic shops close too early and your kinda have to plan ahead to look or buy comics unless it's your day off. Great shop. Very organized with a great selection. Honestly one of the best looking shops I've seen.

Josef

I came here for my first MTG draft in many years; certainly before the pandemic arrived. Tonight was worth it on SO many levels. They were great about checking vax cards. Masks were required and everybody respected that. These two things set the mood for the night and I can hardly begin to describe how much of an impact it had on me. There were no politics or mask quarrels. No outside BS. It was simply a group of excellent humans that wanted to play cardboard with one another. This is what the Magic community embodies for me. A safe space to experience new cards, meet new people, learn new strategies, and forget that the outside world exists for a moment. Thank you, Phoenix, for fostering this safe space and hosting events that are relatively safe in this uncertain world. Your store and staff were amazing. I can't wait to come back.

Arianne Lapine

Inclusive comics and gaming space with great selection and knowledgeable staff.

Aaron Blasdel

A wonderful local game store. Great selection and room for gaming.

Jon Esteb

Tis a simple store layout with a emphasis on Manga and comics. But it does have something for everyone. I enjoyed looking through the table top and board game selection. While I wish I had found more diversity there in product I am very happy I had a chance to see this store and will likely be back around to check it out again when on that side of the mountains.

Soren Hawkins

Super friendly and local comic and game shop, very queer friendly and KILLER indie comics selection. Friendly staff and wonderful environment.

Everett Parrott

One of the friendliest and most welcoming comic book stores I've ever been to, with an expertly curated selection of indie comics. I will absolutely come back the next time I'm in Seattle.

Moonbeam009

Cute little comic/table top game shop. It was clean and the man running it was friendly. The manga selection was a little sparse, unfortunately. They had some local comics that were interesting to look at. Their comic selection was really good!

James Passaro

Love this store. Real sense of community from owner and staff and patrons. The EDH / Commander on Wednesdays is nice and low-power, very friendly and casual and welcoming =)

Sandra Faucett

Great selection and the staff is super knowledgeable and helpful

Half Sides

I discovered this shop going to Seattle central collage and was extremely surprised by what I found. This shop has all new comics that come in weekly, an X-Men arcade machine in the back, omnibuses and trade paper backs, manga and even local comics! They also sell magic the gathering and other card games along with minatures. They even host tourments for magic the gathering. This comic shop is a must visit if you need that fix and your on capital hill. I highly recommend them. Staff is extremly helpful,friendly and knowdgble of comic, manga or anything else in the store.

David Langrock

I love this store. Super-friendly and knowledgeable staff. The prices are reasonable, and the space is great for playing magic or trying out any of their many demo games. I spoke with the owner, Nick, today. He was extremely thorough in his explanation of how a game I was interested in played. I have brought my teenage sons before and they played magic and found comics to buy.

Joy Blacketer

We are from out of town and love browsing local game stores when we get the chance. Phoenix was very nice & clean, with knowledgeable staff. All the DnD core books you could ever want and other WotC products, comics divided by publisher, and some unique board games not found in big box stores. Some MTG available, but not ideal if you are looking for Anything specific.

Ryan Allen

I know that flgs don't usually keep a lot of expansions on the shelves. But they should know that it means I won't shop there again. Why bother? I buy complete games. If I have to go to Amazon for the rest of the game, I'll just get it all there. A very standard experience with all the standard offerings, core sets and base games only, and a very limited selection.

Anya Krupp

Best comic shop ever! If they don't have it, they will see if they can order it for you. Guys that work in this store go above and beyond to provide great service. They also sell table top games. I really like stopping by and see what's new. Nick (the owner) supports local game designers and independent publishers, you can find some very unique interesting pieces in this store. Highly recommend if you like comics, want to see if you like them or just looking for a new table top game for next time your friends are coming over. And have I mentioned their impressive selection of Magic cards?

Arydanika

Great staff. Great selection of comics and games. If you love comics and geekdom, this is a perfect local merchant to support. Huge selection of comics written by members of the LGBTQIA+, Black, POC, and marginalized communities. In the before times they had comic book clubs, MtG nights, and they still do some stuff on Zoom. Follow them on FB for more info.

Bil Hetherington

Wow, absolutely wonderful people at this great store. The woman gave my son two packs of Magic starter kits and he was absolutely stoked!!

Notta Realname

Being new to MTG it was welcoming to find out how patient both the shop owner and workers were. They were eager to share knowledge and never rush folks. Other customers are nice and fun to play with. The shop has fair prices and a nice collection of cards, comics and games for sale.

Vanvanderson

I came here to buy some D&D figurines for my friend. While I was in the store it was very quiet and calm. Feels like a good place to relax and read comics!

Iridius Izzarne

A great selection of comic books, various graphic novels and items for gaming. The layout of the store works well, with the new comics right at the front and easy to access and view. Staff is always helpful and pleasant.

Douglas

Fantastic selection and among the most personable staff I've encountered. Love going to tabletop game day each year. Buy a lot of gifts for friends and family here, since they have a nice variety of games at all price levels.

Ariana

Best comic and game shop in the city. Very welcoming very queer friendly. Excellent collection of comic standards like Marvel and DC as well as Image and Dark Horse. Also plenty of independent comics and even a local comic book section! The board games are well priced and there is space to play. There's something interesting happening every day in the store from magic tournaments to TTRPGs. Excellent location right near the light rail. Lots of restaurants nearby and basically just across the street from Cal Anderson park.

James Dean

Everything and anything you need for your game!! Great selection of miniatures and game books as well as comics and card games. Staff is friendly and helpful!!

Jake Waltier

I've been happy with my experiences at Phoenix as a game store (I'm not a big comics guy). It's owner and staff are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The store is clean, well-lit, and welcoming. It's a small shop, and the game section is only a few shelves, but those shelves have a good breath and selection, from the very approachable to Euro games for hobbyists, plus some Magic and roleplaying products. There are a few large tables for free play and organized events. It can't really compare with the selection and depth of an older, larger game store like Blue Highway or Card Kingdom, but I feel lucky to have it in my neighborhood.

Justin Grasse

This is a great location for Magic events! The staff is very helpful and most people I've met have been friendly. The place is almost always blasting the air conditioning, so you might want to think about bringing a sweater if you're starting a while. Don't expect much in terms of snacks and drinks, but there's some. They do have a great board game selection as well!

Paul Unwin

Friendly, helpful and close to a light rail stop.

Zane Exactly

Suiport your FLGS when you're able to! This shop is fantastic. Tons of good comics and pretty decent selection of the hot new board games. They'll also do special orders for you too! Stop in and check them out.

Timothy Twogood

I always have a blast playing Magic here. The staff is friendly, and will do their best to help new or inexperienced players learn the game. I have found many lucky finds in their singles case. Plus with the selection of comics on the local indy comic shelf there is some real treasures to be found once you've caught up on the mainstream.

D.J. Taylor

This place is awesome, great selection of comics and tabletop games. I'm definitely not bias after winning their free comic day discount roll lol.

Rhys Johnson

Solid game store - pricing is average to high for MtG packs and singles, but a very welcoming shop!

sam travis (samtravis)

Locally-owned independent comic and game shop? Check. Knowledgeable staff? Check. Huge selection? ... Sorta Check. They haven't been here long enough and they don't have enough space to have a gigantic selection, but it's still pretty good for a Friendly Neighborhood Comicshop. I get my weeklies here.

Zombie Brainz

Employees are SUPER helpful and friendly , good selection of stuff for D and D and a large board game selection as well as comics.

David Inglish

The store had a lot of selection in my opinion: it had a good selection of trades and single issues of Image, DC, Marvel. It even had Boom! Comics. It is a nice environment, immaculate, and organized. It has Magic TCG and minis as well. Where I found fault with Phoenix was the customer service. I went twice on different days to see if it was just a shift of people, but no. The staff didn't give any acknowledgement I was there or ask if I had any questions or needed help. I found some things I wanted to buy, but I felt like it didn't matter either way. It went so far as one staff reaching in front of me to put in new books but didn't say anything to me. All in all, if you want a place that may be more convenient for you with a good selection go here. If you like talking to people or having a good customer service experience, I would go somewhere else.

Elliott Ball (Foxstronaut)

Good selection! Nice staff! 👍 …

Devon Burkhalter

Comic books aren't really my style, but this was a nice shop. Helpful and friendly staff, and they're DEFINITELY knowledgeable.

Barís Alrísul

I don't get up here all that often, since I don't live in Cap Hill, but if I did, this would totally be my local comic shop. Great selection, great staff, and a great feel to the shop itself. The moment I walked in, I felt welcome. They had all my favorite titles, and were happy to introduce me to new ones. I also appreciated that my friends and I could just hang out here and game. As with all my favorite comic shops, there was no attempt to engasge in gatekeeping. As an added bonus, one of my favorite writers was doing a signing here the very first time I visited. All in all, this place gets a hearty recommendation from me.

Darryl Collins

Chill comics shop. Quality selection of Indy comics.

DeQuan Watson

This store has a great location right on Broadway. Also near Dick's which is a local favorite walk up eatery. Staff is very friendly and knows their customers well. Their layout is good and signage looks better than most other game and comic stores. They are LGBT friendly, which is a big positive and they are sensitive to a lot of issues. Very little to knock this store for. I suppose it should be known that they don't have the deepest selection of any category they carry when compared to other stores in the area, but they do have the essentials.

Renee Agatsuma

Great comic book (and game) store. I really appreciate to have a comic shop on the hill. I also love that I never felt the least bit ogled, uncomfortable, or treated like a strange unicorn there (as I have at other comic book stores). Friendly cashiers as well.

paul branham

One of, if not THE best place to buy comics in Seattle. Really happy their IMAGE section is more than just The Walking Dead like so many other shops.

Corinne Cooley

Extremely kind and knowledgeable staff! They really go out of their way to help. As a female geek I appreciate how welcoming they are; they host a lot of great events for a wide range of interests, including several aimed at increasing inclusivity in geek spaces. They have a good selection of comics, board games, RPGs, and story games - including a whole comic shelf aimed at younger geeks which has been a huge boon as the nerd auntie - and are always very willing to special order things. A stellar local comic and games shop!

Lisa V

This place has comics and games! And if you don't see what you want/need the employees here are very helpful in trying to get it for you or giving you suggestions on other places to look! They have weekly gaming nights for gamers. Great customer service, Hi Jason!

Keon Wu

We were here in June 5, 2021. Doug was really patient and nice to help us getting Mysterium for our gaming night. It was so much fun! We had a great night until after midnight! Thank you Doug and thank you Phoenix!

La Lacrema

Great little gaming/comic shop. Plenty of comics, graphic novels, cards, games, and even figurines. Nightly gaming gatherings at the tables in the back. Staff were super helpful and knowledgeable both times we went in. Highly recommended.

Hamit Yuksel

Super friendly staff with a nice collection of popular and independent local comics. You'll always find something new and cool to read. Lots of other things to geek about too, from MTG to D&D.

Jason Wodicka

Seattle is lucky to have a surplus of good gaming stores, so it's great when one of them manages to stand out. Phoenix has managed one of the most consistently welcoming environments for any gaming store I know - and that's impressive, since the competition's stiff. I especially recommend Phoenix if other comic or game stores have felt unwelcoming because of your gender or sexuality - you'll find a different experience here. I've also had some great recommendations for comics and games from the folks behind the counter, and they've remembered books I wanted even when they took an extra few months to come out. I'm happy enough with them to trek out of my way from Greenwood to do my comic shopping there.

Chance Ploegstra

Helpful staff that will do their damndest to answer any comic/gaming related question you have. Are very beginner friendly for anything from comics to board gaming, and LGBT+ friendly. Also (and this is a big comic book plus) don't overcharge for certain variant covers!

Kristina Tracer

The staff is knowledgeable, enthusiastic about comic and . They feature a selection of local artists and artisans. I love going there and geeking out about board games, and they've been really good about recommending comics to me that I've enjoyed!

Shaw Fitzgerald

I'm not much of a graphic novel reader and I don't play all the games, but the store is nicely organized and the staff is helpful. They have tables at the back that are used for playing games like Magic the Gathering and RPGs which is nice.

Edward

Wow! I wasn't expecting much after passing it by all the time but I finally went in. Clean wall of comics, shelves of trades set up by publisher, board games and plenty of tables in the back. Maybe there is a list of events somewhere but there was a large magic tournament going on and the place did not smell good. Only thing that would make this place better would be a bar! I'll be back

Zack Horvath

The prices here are very reasonable. You have to go in understanding that you're supporting a local brick and mortar store rather than playing the $.01 game on Amazon or wherever. Great selection of comic books, and a decent collection of board games, RPG books, etc!

Eddy Duprase

Phoenix is an amazing little game shop. The staff is so sweet and genuine, and I always feel like family there. I never feel sheepish about ducking in just to browse or pick up some new minis for my D&D game. When it's not too busy, they even allow pets, so it's easy to pick up a booster pack or two while walking a pup.

Frank Chafe

Great big store. Plenty of play space. Well stocked and great staff. Well attended events. Not the cheapest prices in town, But the service and atmosphere help to make that up.

David W

I played Magic the Gathering here... couldn't tell you much about their comic book selection. Seems like a friendly guy behind the counter, relatively small store, good crowd there for Magic. The draft was 16 dollars, which is about 4 dollars higher than I remember. That could just be a byproduct of my getting older though.

Jacob Hubbell

Great for hosting a game night and other community game sessions. Awesome variety of comics indie and big label alike. Plus plenty of other fun geeky merch, DnD dice, spell cards and figures.

Colin Watton

With an amazing, curated selection, lovely staff, and near-daily activities, this is one of the best game/comic shops I've ever been to.

Justin Whitley

Staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

Claire Etienne

Phoenix games is an amazing game and general nerd store on Capitol hill. Their staff is friendly and knowledgable, and they always have events going on - game nights, book signings, new product launches, etc. I love that they're locally owned (the owner works in the store), that they truly love what they do, and that they provide a space for people to gather and share that passion. Highly recommended!

MJ Summers

This place is amazing. Great space for nerdy queers! My bf and I come here for all of our comic book needs. The staff is always friendly and space is always clean and filled with other friendly people.

Claire Cowie

Awesome people are running this shop. There is a ton of variety in an open, airy space that is easy to explore.

Diana Fellner

Great selection of games and books, including LGBTQ books. Very friendly and helpful staff. Thanks from your SF customers.

Colleen Schwarz-Hopkins

Great selection of games, graphic novels and comics! Very helpful staff

Bean Y.

not all comics/game shops have a reputation for being queer & trans friendly, but phoenix is special. i love their local comics wall, which features work from seattle-based illustrators. their well-curated selection of trades, singles, board games, and even the buffy the vampire slayer coloring book (!!!) is worth checking out. there’s always folks in the shop, playing games or browsing or chatting with the friendly, hard-working staff. highly recommended!

Connie

I love this place! Everyone is so friendly and will offer great suggestions if you need help looking for a grpahic novel. I had asked for post-apocalyptic suggestions and got quite a few good ones like East of West, etc. My go-to place now for graphic novels. And it's a nice local business!

Westin Musser

Went in while exploring and was delighted with the politeness of the person working, the excellent comic and manga selection, and impressed when hearing about the online MTG prerelease strategy that they've adopted

Brad Henderson

Free tables to game at. Large selection of top games, staff that is friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I love gaming there and it's my first choice if I need anything from my FLGS.

Chris Gwinn

Very welcoming of everyone. Clean and brightly lit. Snacks / drinks available. Nice selection of comics and games for purchase. Good selection of demo games to try.

Jace Shultz

I have regularly attended a monthly event at Phoenix since May 2014 and I have never been disappointed with either the event or the courtesy and service provided. Also, the selection of games and comics is always superb. Prices are typically MSRP (excluding any sort of event-based discounts, of course). That said, I highly recommend supporting the local economy and shopping for your games and comics here! :D

DJ Eternal Darkness

Nice little comic/gaming shop on Broadway. I miss Games and Gizmos, but that's long since gone off of Broadway, and Phoenix does a good job of having both space for some games as well as having an awesome comic selection. If you live on the Hill, SUPPORT THESE GUYS!

David Castleberry

Very helpful staff. Easily found what I was looking for at a good price.

Johnathan Wisconsin

This place is fantastic. Convenient, clean, and the staff really goes above and beyond for customers. Just went here for the first time recently and now I'll not go anywhere else - Thanks a ton, Nick especially!

Chris Mack

I like this place. They have comics & games so they don't misrepresent themselves. Probably the only comic shop on the Hill, I think. They have tables set-up for gaming towards the back. There's always something going on the few times I've stopped by.

Rodrigo Guillermo Tintor Pérez

Great place to get your favorite hobbies. Love it. Great service and help. Online purchases easy and secure. I'm a regular customer and best pace in town.

D Cool

It's good to see a fresh sales layout with an even tempo and warm shopping environment. We need more small store in a mega corporate world of the strong eat the weak.

Peter Creed

Came here to play magic and have felt safer around covid than any other card shop thanks to the careful attention of the owner.

Jess Sudo

Phoenix is an awesome store that has an inclusive and friendly atmosphere! I come to Phoenix to play Magic the Gathering. As a woman, I feel safe and respected in the store. Nick (the store owner) is a feminist and a great presence at Phoenix. He makes the store a great space for women and LGBTQIA+ folks!

Tanner Van De Walle

Super nice staff, good selection of games, and a nice area in the back for playing games with friends :) They also have a collection of games back there that are free to play, so you can try before you buy!

Jared R Delo

This place is great. Old fashioned nerd cave with everything you'd expect, hold the gatekeeping and Simpsons comic book guy attitude. Friendly and welcoming staff, helped me find the right book easily.

Edd Tsao

Great comic book shop with a wide selection. They just renovated into a larger space and it's got regular events if you're into MTG.

Jeff Drury-Stewart

Copied from my Yelp Review: Great store! Good selection of current comics, trades, games, and warmachine minis. Decent roleplaying game selection - D&D, Pathfinder, Shadowrun (Seattle!). Owner and staff know comics and keep on top of subscriptions and special orders. If you're looking for something and Phoenix doesn't have it in stock then they will help you find it. I moved my subs from The Dreaming in the U. District to here because it was more convenient and it's been great for me. Other pluses: Gaming space, tournaments, quiet, clean, well organized, good music, and friendly people. I worked in a comic shop for 5 years and Phoenix is the kind of place I respect.

Gabe O'Leary

Nice staff and the ability to come and play board games for free is great. We even ended up buying one of the demo games because we had so much fun.

Joe Reyes

Good variety but lacks atmosphere. Most comic books stores draw you in and makes you want to find hidden treasures that you might otherwise not find, this one not so much.

Daiv Barr

Helpful, knowledgeable staff. Great selection of comics and a good variety of games. Happy to preorder anything they do not yet have. A great addition to the neighborhood.

Andrew Routier

The friendly and welcoming staff makes each visit enjoyable. The store offers events and meet ups almost daily. Check the calendar they probably have something that will appeal to you.

Stephen MacRae

Excellent shop even before the expansion, and it is even better now. I'm very happy to have them in my neighborhood, and drop to support them regularly. They can now handle tap to pay.

Gennifer Bridget Ti'ana Maher

I use to go to a transgender support group every wednesday night, but then I made a decision to find a local game store for EDH. Nick hosts an amazing casual with a tinge of competition on wednesdays that made me feel welcome and comfortable to play. I've been coming here about a year now, I've attended numerous drafts, EDH, and sealed events here. While a small shop, Nick and his 2 minions work their asses off to provide an amazing space and awesome LGS. Located right next to the new link station exits so why even bother trying to find parking on cap hill?

Cascadian101

Getting back into comics and gaming after a 13 year hiatus…and I love this store. The owner is super helpful and fun, and I felt like my inner geek flag was free to fly. Game on!

Adam Billen

I 💞 Phoenix! Tons of play space, great selection of board games/comics/tcg stuff! Staff is wonderfully helpful and the people at magic events I've gone to were always wonderful. …

Jason Knickerbocker

Kind, attentive staff, clean and cozy atmosphere, awesome range of graphic novels, comics, manga and more.

Adam Woodworth

I love this shop. It's owners are fantastic people and have hoated some fantastic events. There is a kind and generous community here. Visit, buy things, show support for this community.

Alexander Eklund

Nice atmosphere, kind personel and they to do gaming and comic books events. They have a shelf full of comics from local talent, that's kinda awesome to say the least.

Nicholas O'Connor

Cozy with a good selection of games and comics, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable and ran a Magic event pretty efficiently.

Nathaniel Waggoner

Went to a magic draft here a few years ago and pulled a Blood Crypt Zendikar Expedition and Gideon planeswalker in the same pack.
