Found some good grabs with the quick and efficient help of the staff. Good bunch of knowledgeable dudes.
This was my go-to store for comics in the 1980s and 1990s. Both Mike and Sid were good guys who loved comics and cared about them a great deal. When I left Lubbock in 1995 this was the one store I missed most. 😕
Great experience every time beautiful dollar bins and great customer service you can always rely on highly recommend if you are a experienced collector or new collector no matter what age.
Dudes are great! They can hold comics when they come out for you so you never have to worry about missing out. Super friendly staff and a great selection !!!
Friendly and knowledgeable, Great customer service, and a well stocked store. And now they are in a brand new location thats even more impressive. Its brighter, more open and even more well stocked. Everything from Used Books and Novels to comics to statues and toys. Hands down - My absolute favorite comic book store in Texas!
Good prices and nice staff - great selection -
Fun to browse the new comics and great selection of back issues and used books too!
Great place to purchase comics and collectibles.
Great place to shop for comics and graphic novels. Brings the kids!
Cool place to visit, lots of comic books and more.
Went in asking about a old Detective Comic I had. They are very helpful and did everything they could to answer the questions. They also have a lot of neat stuff to buy.
Awesome help friendly customer service. Great price.
Excellent selection from multiple comic producers, plus they have omnibus issues that other comic shops dont.
Star comics is my favorite place on earth. I am in the shop three times a week on average. It is basically my home away from home, my escape, my own personal zen garden. I love to look at all the fun toys, I am there every week for my pull list, Robert, Brandon, Todd and the rest are always friendly and helpful. Plenty willing to talk to me for hours on end if I have something to talk about and kind enough to leave me to my thoughts when I’m having a bad day and just trying to relax. This is the shop for you. You won’t be disappointed.
Amazing, they have what youre looking for.
Good place for new comics!
I want to apologize to Robert and the guys for leaving the shop for so long. They have always been good to me in the past and Robert welcomed me back. They take care of their customers. The shop looks great. Great deals, good prices. Stop getting robbed somewhere else. Shop at star comics. Thank you Robert.
Love this place, every one is so helpful and friendly. Amazing selection of back orders. They dont try to sell you the most expensive things. They ask what you are looking for and find you what you want. Ive talked to pretty much the entire staff and everyone has outstanding customer service. Will keep going back for all my Batman needs.
Great place! Bright atmosphere, great selection of some great stuff. Really friendly guys staffing the store
Great, friendly staff. They always try to learn all their customers names and make you feel at home. If youre missing an issue they do everything they can to find it for you.
Clerk was very nice and attentive. Was able to answer all my questions. Comics are well labeled and relatively easy to find what youre looking for!
Totally awesome store and stuff! Cant believe my review got mixed up but I give them 5 stars!! called in ahead of time for my husband they had what we were looking for, had it ready when we got there.. Will be back for sure. 😊
My favorite place in town to get comics. The staff are always super helpful. They will talk to you about comics all day if they could. Star is the best for a lot of reasons. To many to list but I love this place.
Love the spiderman painting above the door! I want it so bad! 😭. If you love spiderman, youve got to check it out. Get you some nice comics! Nice people here.
Star is designed for the customer to find what he or she is looking for easily. The staff members are available to assist with your purchase easily. It has a welcoming atmosphere.
It’s easy to forget that long before comics were the hottest properties in Hollywood and geek was “chic”, Star Comics was there.Think about that for a moment. When Deadpool made his first appearance, you could have bought it right off the shelf at Star Comics. Same thing for Harley Quinn, the current incarnations of Suicide Squad, Guardians of the Galaxy, Walking Dead, Constantine and countless others.They have been providing both comics and an epicenter for nerd culture in West Texas for several decades now and they have always done it better than anybody. When the first graphic novels appeared, Star carried them. Comic supplies, t-shirts, posters…you name it, Star had it and still does.I was lucky to find Star when I first started seriously collecting comics. They guided me to the right titles and made sure I always found everything I needed, even when I wasn’t sure exactly what it was.Sure, lately it seems like everyone is jumping on the Comic bandwagon. And, sure, you could go to one of the new places that has popped up to take your money. But no other place will have the history and no other place will have the heart. Because Star Comics was there when comics weren’t cool and you’ll find no better or more knowledgeable staff anywhere.
Great place where they moved from. Was able to find what I was looking for as well.
Ive been going to start comics for 26 years, and the place just keeps getting better. The owner is super friendly, and hes remembered my name even though I dont make it to the store as often the days. The new location is more convenient and laid out in a great way for finding what you need. I highly recommend it!
Always helpful. Got a great deal. Thank you 🌟 Comics.
Service is great and they have a terrific selection for a mom-and-pop comic book store.
Its the perfect place to be at for your comics or everything else
Great comic shop in a nice new location. They have tons of comicsvl and graphic novels. Not a lot of collectibles, but a few. 4stars because its definitely an old school type of comic shop with an old guy usually behind the counter staring down his nose at you. They support local artists though, which i love! Definitely worth stopping in if you are a comic collector. Some high end comics as well as weekly releases. Danny is our favorite comic guy here... very knowledgeable.
These guys are great! They always take care of all my comic needs.
Absolutely loved this place! Very friendly staff and fantastic prices!
Love this place. I dont even live here anymore and they are always willing to ship my comics and look for anything I need. Best and Friendliest comic shop Ive been to and Ive been to a lot!
Im that person who goes into a comic store and buys books. Im not a comic person but it looked like a wide selection of comic books. I was delighted to see a small section of books and novelty items. I bought two books for $10 and these are book so would normally pass by in a bookstore.The staff were amazing and super nice. I hope to see if they have some Walking Dead comics because I would love to read those.
Great place to buy new and old comics/graphic novels. The employees there are very helpful. They know their stuff when it comes to comics.
This is the best comic book store Ive been to in Lubbock. Well organized, well stocked, nice and open. Very kind and knowledgeable staff! We will be back soon!
Love the new location! So many great books and super knowledgeable staff. Best comic store in West Texas!
I am no longer welcome at this once wonderful store.I am, after ending 60 years of abuse, an outspoken old man. Theyre trying to help me, by merit of their unjustified attempt at reigning in that aspect of my personality. In other words, a continuance of the psychological abuse I ended.Also, they best clear out all the Star Trek memorabilia they bought months ago. The real owner is heading in, with records and receipts, in order to reclaim whats left of her property.
Star Comics is a wonderful store that carries a wide variety of individual issues, trades, books, and all manner of collectibles. Every visit to the store yields new surprises, and the friendly staff will help you find anything you are looking for. Star is more than a comic book store, they are a pillar of the comic/geek/nerd community in Lubbock. Star Comics has been my go-to shop for years because of the great selection and friendly, helpful service.
The new store is spacious and clean with a better selection than ever
The guys here are friendly and seem to really enjoy talking about any sort of comic book. If youre a regular, they will gladly pull your favorite comic books each week too! I always like stopping by after class.
This place is awesome! Been in Lubbock for many years and Ive been going there ever since I was a kid
Always have a great selection and great service. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Best place to learn about and buy comics.
Great customer service and one of my favorite local comic book shops to date. Great inventory management and amazing deals make Star Comics a weekly visit for me.
They remember me by name, are always super kind and helpful, and know what they are talking about. They send emails detailing the comics they will get in this week, and the comics on my list. Would definately check them out. :)
If youre a nerd youd really like this place, not extremely large or small. Very comfortable and neat
This place is awesome!
Awesome staff and I personally feel like they have the best variety of comics, memorabilia, and graphic novels in Lubbock!
Great shop for your comics wants and needs---if they dont have it, they will get it for you, and if you have any questions, they will get you answers. Thanks guys!
Star Comics is the only place to buy comics in hundreds of miles that actually respects you as a person instead of a consumer target. The staff will go out of there way to make you feel valued and never try to sell youbon something you dont want. Sometimes I have ignorant questions or crazy requests and I am always met with understanding and thoughtfulness. Whether you walk out with an armload or empty hands you are thanked just the same. While the comic elitist can chat away I notice this is also a place a family with kids can find child safe books of their favorite superheroes or fan favorites like Pokemon. This place truly cares about community and seemingly has for decades. Never a bad experience nor have I ever witnessed anyone else have one. It truly is a gem in Lubbock.
Great selection of new titles. TONS of trade paperbacks, collections, and anthologies. This is my favorite comic book shop in town, hands down. The owner is a great guy who is always helpful, kind, and courteous.
These are the guys who helped me get into comics. They answer questions, make excellent recommendations, and carry a great selection. Theyre also very active in the local community, organizing events both in the store and around town. You cant go wrong with Star Comics.
It was alright enjoy the employees they were helpful they answered the questions as best they could enjoy it.
As a comic creator myself this is hands down the best comic shop in town! They support local creators, hunt down hard to finds for you and the owner has a heart of gold. They also have great deals and treat their customers with great respect. This is clearly their passion and more than a business to them. No competitors come close to the service found here. I will always bring my money here from new, to back issues or finding that missing issue for my collection they always have me covered. Star Comics is simply best for well over 100 miles!
Ive been shopping at Star since I was 10yo. Great people.
Love the space to browse and catch up on books. The staff are great too.
Love these guys!
Very friendly staff.
Great store friendly people love getting my comics here well be back soon for more comics!!!
Robert is an awesome guy. Best prices around and best customer service. 10/10
Every time we go to Lubbock we have to stop by here. Staff is so nice & comic selection is great!
Super helpful for new people with lots of questions.
I love the vibe and comic selections
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff with a very organized and well kept store, would definitely recommend!
The new location has more room. But, this place still gives the old school comic book store vibe.
Friendly and helpful. Clean with a wide selection but not stuffed to the gills. Recommended for your monthly comics needs, or the occasional major purchase.
Star shines bright. Illuminating a geek culture becon across the dusty plains
The place is cool and the people that work there dont treat you like a complete noob if you ask questions.
Had a great time and the staff were really helpful
Very helpful helped me find exactly what I was looking for. Definitely will be back.
Huge selection of my Rick and Morty obsession and time of other stuff! Great prices, new stuff being put out constantly!
Excellent shop..Large selection..Friendly and helpful staff
Love this store found some books I was really interested in. I also like the posters.
Mostly newer comics but good variety.
Great service.
Customer service really sucks here
Great service, fun selection, reasonable prices, awesome new location.
Great selection, great environment, wonderful staff, and a cool new location!
Good service and good selection
The staff is friendly and helpful. I really like the variety they have to offer.
They always have what I want, and I drive the 100 miles just to for the visit.
Top notch customer service and selection.
One of the greatest places in Lubbock for all your comic/nerdy needs! The staff is friendly and very welcoming and knowledgeable!
I really love the new location and staff is always very helpful and welcoming.
Nice shop. Well organized and helpful staff
Ive been going here for over 25 years love this place
Great selection, nice selection of older comics and complete collections
Cool place, comic books, books, action figures, and little statues.
Great service first and every time I have gone. I collect marvel legends action figures and I come here first rather then buy them online.
This location is even better than the old one and the customer service and personality are still there! They always have something new for me to try out and they have tons of classics and back issues.Update:TL;DR:Makes newcomers and loyal readers both feel welcome with no intimidation and help mold your idle reading list, long or short.Long version:Still love this place. I read a lot of comics these days and almost none of them are super hero related. Its always comforting that Im not expected to know all the super hero lore that is currently going on and that if I have questions they explain in a way that doesnt feel ostracizing like other places and people can. On the flipside they also ask about the titles I do read in a effort to learn about something they dont know about and help me find titles that I like based on what I like and dont particularly care for. For those that like to sample a round, this staff is like having a curator for you short boxes and for those we are loyal title fans, they always make sure you dont miss out on whats next.
Very great place for new comics and to star a nee collection. The even have comics for the smaller kiddos the statues are freaking awesome too.
Nice shop. Nice people.
I asked a couple questions he answered me honestly seem to be very trustworthy
Great long time local business.
Good environment! Good service!!
Local comic shop with a great selection for fans of all ages.
Great place! They have new stuff every week!
