Tbs Comics

I just recently discovered comics and TBS is the first and only comic book store I have ever been in. I went in the store with zero idea of what I liked or was looking for, but the staff was super friendly, knowledgable, and was able to recommend some comics that I really loved. My favorite thing about my experience was that they were totally unpretentious and seemed excited to help me get started. Before going into the store, I had been a bit intimidated and was glad that my fears were unfounded. I very much recommend TBS Comic for any newbies out there looking to get into comics and have no idea where to start.

Not a huge comic book guy/​gamer but I went in here with a friend to see if I could get some Marvel Comics for my son since he really enjoys the movies and it was good. They had a ton of 1 dollar comics that were perfect for what I was looking for and I also found a pretty sweet Captain America action figure for him that I am sure he will love. The guy at the counter was very knowledgeable about almost everything and answered any questions me or my friend had.

Just ok,

Very nice selection of gaming schwag. Cool setup.

Of the Comic and Gaming shops in the area, this one is my favorite. I’m not into comics, graphic novels or miniatures (of which, they have plenty!), so this review is mostly focused on CCGs, Boardgames, RPGs, and the Experience.
CCGs: Well stocked selection of all major CCGs and some minor ones. Reasonable prices on packs, boxes and singles.
Boardgames: Pretty good selection that keeps getting better. I’ve been very happy to see them add shelf space in this area and de-​emphasize games such as Munchkin and Zombies!!! What they have now is a decent collection of American-​style and Euro games marked at list, but it’s not uncommon for a discount to be taken at the register.
RPGs: Major players are covered here. No real surprises. Good dice and accessory selection.
Experience: Family-​owned operation with plenty of space dedicated to open play tables. Most afternoons/​evenings you’ll find people playing MTG, Warhammer, Heroclix, and other CCG/​Mini games. I’ve been working with them to set-​up board gaming events, and they’ve been 100% supportive. Can you buy this stuff cheaper online … of course you can, but online stores don’t grow our hobby, places like this do.

TBS Comics appears (to the layman) to be a totally decent comic book & more store.
I haven’t collected comics, miniatures or my virginity in a long time, and while killing some time in the Fort one day I found my way into this comic shop. You never know when you’ll see something you can’t live without. They definitely have the comics covered, but also have lots of graphic novels, which is huge considering all the popular television shows and movies out there right now on which they’re based. They also have a lot of action figures, gaming choices (card, board, etc), sports memorabilia, animé and other Japanese, er, stuff.
Two things of note about TBS Comics. Firstly, this is a good place to pick up protective sheets and containers for those of you collecting coins, cards and stamps. And secondly, although they noticed when I came in and where I was in the store (making sure I wasn’t cramming a comic book with a half-​naked woman on the cover down my pants), they weren’t hovering over me the whole time. I respect and appreciate that.
So this place has character, to say the least. A cool Mom & Pop business that specializes in something that is quickly becoming a lost art: literature.
