Avalon Comics and Games

Located Avalon Comics at Kitsap Mall for the annual Free Comic Book Day. Giant location with comics, graphic novels, models, toys, T-​shirts, and other fun merchandise.
Today there were also artists creating new, original work on site. I was told that they also host special guests and signings.
Left with free comics, a poster, and bought a Spaceship Yamato and a War Hammer 40 000 set.
Major score for the birthday kiddo!

This is a great store with a great staff. I do all my pre-​ordering for the miniature games I play through them. I enjoying gaming there as well because they provide an environment that isn’t focused on winning. Most the other gamers there are more than happy to stop the game they are playing to explain to people watching how the game is played. There are also a few gamers (1 out of 20) that are too focused on winning. But ignoring those people I love playing at avalon.

This is a fun store. They have all sorts of comics and merchandise. The Walking Dead is my personal favorite; they have board games, action figures, and of course the comics. There’s also plenty of other properties to choose from. The front counter has collectable comics, and in the back, they have tables for gaming. I love Star Wars: Xwing, so it’s a great place to play. The guys there are laid back and love to joke around. It’s a fun place to be.

This location is great. It’s not far from where I live and I like the storefront (SO MUCH HULK!) and the offerings are *okay*. I find all the citadel paints, and current magic sets. If you need anything that isn’t generic X, they’ll order it and it’ll be in in a week or so. You may have to reconfirm your orders because they write them on napkins and the orders don’t get placed. If ordering anything Warhammer, just order from GW, it’s the exact same price and you’ll get it 2 – 3 days sooner. Everything else on the shelf is marked up 15%. Not to promote Amazon, but this is the digital age, and I can quickly price compare on my phone. I even went to Barnes and Noble in the mall as well, and was able
That said, the owner and elder staff does listen when you suggest hot items.
That’s where the stars end, however.
During multiple events, I have seen and experienced for myself a complete lack of caring for the customer, and late information which caused others to be disqualified. Pretty much every tournament is run by any random stranger off the street who happens to know someone at Avalon, or by the person at the Register who is also handling customers. In my most recent conversation, I attempted to explain a made up rule to the TO, and he laughed and didn’t say anything and was saved by a customer and he turned away and ignored me fully while I waited, then he seemed to forget me existence WHILE I WAS STANDING AT THE COUNTER and walked away to show the customer some merch and then went into the backroom while the tournament started without me.
Oh okay.
Anyway, I’ll probably shop at Amazon and find another store to play at.

Quite possibly the WORST comic book store I have ever been in. The people behind the counter were rude, and constantly making comments about my person being a MILF. When my child picked up a book, the staff told him to put it back because «Kids do not understand comic books, and come back when you learn to read.» He then took the book so roughly from child’s hands that it startled him.
I will never shop or go anywhere near this place again.

This store has gotten better by moving in to a new location and it is way bigger so much more gaming area and a wider selection of cool new toys and awesome retro stuff. There is huge back issues of current to golden age comics. I love the updated logo and new sign,
The owner is very willing to try to order in what you want and all the staff are great bunch of guys who really love what they do. The passion is very visible and hope that

I love Avalon Comics! Friendly, knowledgable sales people, great selection of comics and knick knacks. I haven’t participated in game nights since it’s not my thing but others really enjoy it.
