Very cool ship. There are endless books to sort through. Great conversation with the employees you have to dig to find what you are looking for.
Comics Etc is a welcoming shop! The staff has a wonderfully playful attitude. I always feel welcomed whenever I visit...Which is often!
These guys are consistently knowledgeable, professional and always a good time to chat with. Highly recommended place to go.
Wife and I went for the first time and are completely to comics. The guys were great and helped us with what we might be interested in to get started. Looking forward to the next time we go!
Best comic book store in Rochester. I have been buying comics from Comics, Etc. for over 30 years. Best selection of comics, toys and sports cards.
Simply the very best comicbook and collectible shop in Rochester, NY!
If you are an OCD comic guy ...probably not the shop for you. 5% of entire inventory has bags...《1% with boards. In racks where they are bent over.That being said I did find a variant I was looking for after asking .
I had a wonderful experience today shopping for a birthday gift at Comics Etc. The whole staff was very friendly and helpful. They helped me to find the book I was looking for right away and then gift-wrapped it for me at no extra charge. Support this local gem!
Small place with a nice varied selection. Kinda homey feel like it used to be a club meetup spot which I enjoy. Better than the vibe of shop owners hovering over your shoulder to see if you are going to buy a book and then shoo you along if you are just browsing ( has happened before ). The staff are also super chill and are easy to talk to whether its a question on comics or on local tips.
Best comics store in the Greater Rochester area!
I love this comic store. There is just not enough time in a day to look at everything. Its great! I was looking for He-man MOTU comics, they had several. They have tons of old trading cards, they have discount comics, new comics, and everything in between.
Not bad honestly. First time there. A lot of stuff. As a new person into comics, felt a little overwhelming but a very nice place. Definitely will come back again
Its a Great Place to visit.
Lots of comic items they have in there. And I need to catch up years of not buying comics book.
One of my most frequented LCS. Week after week there are sportscards available at a good price which is highly appreciated considering the issues with locating retail packs and having to overpay on Ebay. Thanks again to all the comics staff!!!
Nice store.. Plenty of comic books
Buy your comics local!!!! This is a great place to do it!!!
The guys here are great. If youre like me and cant make it in every week they can hold comics for you until you can pick them up. Everybody there is very knowledgeable and can answer all your comic book needs.
Nice place to go
Small dark unorganized i felt lost
Great place. Staff was very helpful and knowledgeable.
Best nerd store ever.
New to comics or gaming? Neck-deep in one or the other or both and need to round out your collection and/or keep up with new releases from publishers large and small? This is your place. Walk in and mention what your looking for and youll never be met with blank stares, these guys know their stuff and WILL be able to point you in the right direction. Simple as that.
Staff was very rude. I will not be coming back.
The place is great, the staff is very knowledgeable and always helpful, the selection is wonderful, in the prices are really good. The owner is usually in the store and hes a great guy. Ive been going here for years and will continue to.
Visited this location in late June while in town with my husband. I loved the whole experience! The store is very large and packed wall to wall with all things GEEK. Comics old and current, action figures new and old as well. I picked up several at a great price! They allow you to freely roam around to the back as well where there is more to see and buy! Since I live in Orlando, Fl I asked cashier if the do Ship from Store since this is the 21st century and he was not sure. I plan on contacting them again to purchase more figures hopefully they can mail them to me. 5 stars!
Nice folks and I they always help me find what Im looking for.
Nice little shop with a great selection of comics.
I used to buy my comic books online, until I found this Hidden Gem of Rochester. Dont forget to check out the back room where they have hundreds of comics at discounted prices. What an amazing selection. The staff that works there is very knowledgeable, and they make great recommendations based off of your likes. Unlike other places they dont make you feel stupid for asking questions and take the time to explain in detail their answers.
Always fun and very friendly, they are the last of a dying breed and I hope we can help them stick around!!! I literally use them strictly for Marvel / black series for custom pieces and they have an amazing selection of stuff
This is my favorite comic book shop, hands down. The staff is so freaking friendly and chatty. They have great taste too, and are always down to help you find a comic that youll fall in love with
Staff was rude and vein to my family. Felt like I failed the cool guy test and was shunned by employees. Also prices were high and store smelled like urine. I will never go there again.
Great place for all your comic needs. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They have my saved comics always ready to go when I show up. Prices are great as well.
Solid comics-buying experience. The friendly staff will offer advice by request, or let you browse the mix of new releases, back issues, and non-comic collectibles.
These guys are amazing! Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Wide variety of major labels and indies. They give discounts on subscriptions. If youre getting current release issues, you should be doing it here.
The place is phenomenal great prices and discounts on stuff for gamers Ive been going there for years
Absolutely 1st class service from knowledgeable folks! Not to mention great deals and items in stock you might not find elsewhere.
Comics Etc in Rochester, NY has a wide selection and always has a comfortable atmosphere. Today we went in to grab a comic that was just recently printed and expected that it possibly be sold out. Went up to person working there to ask, just in case. He said they were sold out, but gave us the last copy that he was planning on buying himself!!!! Awesome!
Very cool atmosphere and very friendly staff. Everyone is very happy there. Its a fun experience every time Im there! They are at Main/Goodman now, so its very easy to find and to park!
Best comic store in the city. Very helpful and knowledge staff coupled with a great selection. Awesome experience and I will quickly become a regular!!!!👍
Comics Etc. orders many issues every week so if you cant find a single issue of a recent publication then consult their inventory. They also have a pretty extensive TPB collection that hits all the touchstones and many recent books.
Been going here for years. One of the best experiences Ive had going to a comic book store. Awesome service and they have just about anything you need.
Finally, I found a clean, organized, friendly spot to purchase sport cards and supplies. They have a nice selection of sports cards, comics, action figures as well as a number of supplies needed to store your collections. I will be visiting here frequently as the staff is helpful, not pushy and the atmosphere is great. Thank you!!
Great local comic shop. Friendly staff will help you find what youre looking for. They have a variety of role playing game books in addition to their extensive comic inventory.
Amazing place for comics! Staff is awesome and super knowledgeable in all comics and have great suggestions for reading if you dont know what to pick up 10/10 would recommend
The location is a tad hard to find. It is located deep in the Village gate shops which has a design similar to a college student center. The store is filled to the brim with comics, offering the weekly releases and lots of back issues and trade paperbacks. Particular to this store is an ethereal quality as a place positioned outside of space and time. Once you step in, time and the outside world lose meaning and you find yourself before artifacts of eons past that have waited endlessly for someone to find them.
Im not a comics guy, but I came here to buy some manga for a friend who enjoys such things. Though the main business of Comics Etc isnt manga, they do have some. The employees helped me find just what I wanted with no delay, thanks guys!
Friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff.Good selection of games, figures, and other merchandise in addition to current comics and back issues. Good location, plenty of parking.
Stopped in on a whim and loved it! The store looks great and has a great selection..the staff was very helpful and friendly! A definite stop next time Im in the area!
Always helpful and friendly for the past 20+ years. Plus a great selection of Marvel, DC, and Indie titles from past to present.
Cant stress how impressed I was going into this store yesterday. Amazingly friendly and knowledgeable staff in a nicely stocked and well organized store. I will definitely be returning.
Helpful friendly and knowledgeable
Great shop with lots to offer in comics, collectible cards. Laid back atmosphere.
This place is the bomb! Ive been coming here my entire adult life. It always has what I want, the owner is great, I love it. Truly a Rochester institution.
Tons of comics, very diverse, some niche stuff. cool extras.graphic novel selection is limited
I love a comic book store. We make a trip all the way from Buffalo to Rochester to go to different stores for a change. I like Comics Etc but i cant stand the fact that the comics are so bent inside the racks.Im not super picky about condition most of the time but really there are a lot of books bent forwards in the racks and have cracked spines.I dont mind when a store is a mess. I like to dig through piles to find a gem. What I hate is finding that one Spider-Man comic I need and it looks like it was folded in half. Disappointing.
A cool collection of comic related items!
Love this store and all the workers love comics just as much as the customers do which is nice to see
Love this place, good customer service and a great inventory.
My go to comic shop... need I say more?🤙🤙
Hey if you love comics good place to visit. Andy the owner is a really cool guy he will talk your ear off about sports and anything comic movie related. Nice staff helpful. The have free comic day once a year its BIG there get there early there will be a line out the door because they bring in local comic artist and book makers around town . And yes free comics !! . Hes got back stock .ask and they will see if they have it . If they dont have it ask and they will look for you .i called and and asked him to save me something special for my self and he got it . Really went out of his way for his costumer . He loves kids but remember that kids at a certain age ready to be collectors are readers because this is a serious collectors store . But I do bring my little girl in but shes careful . I stop in every once in a wile because I live 45 mins away . But he remembers me and my little girls name . I have been going there for years now I will keep going there because of how friendly they are . Just a great place to go . You should definitely check them out if you want to get in to comics or your son or daughter. Or if you are just looking for a comic shop and your new in town or just visiting . So stop in its worth the drive I do ever time in in the area. By the way tell them Scott Brooks sent you 😉
Theyve got a great location with plenty of safe parking, a nice big selection of new stuff with a separate room of back issues and 50 cent books, and you can browse around without feeling like your being watched... Awesome prices and some great finds if you have the time to dig.
Probably the best comic book store Ive ever been to. Staff is insanely helpful and knowledgable, especially if youre unsure as to what to buy. I live almost 6 hours from Rochester and Im going to make it a point to buy from here every time Im in town. This place knows how to bring customers back.
Great selection, prices and helpful staff
If you love comic books, they have them!!... AWESOME!
Decent selection, helpful staff. A tad disorganised, but that isnt bad. Makes you feel good when you find the right things.
Great little shop, pleasant staff. Lots to look through!
One or two staff members are monotonous in tone but the others are friendly and helpful. Not all comics come with protective backs and sleeves. Selection for main stream comics is great while lesser known series might have a few missing issues.
Huge selection of comics, new, old, and trade form. Staff is helpful when needed.
Great selection of comics and other cool stuff, keeps my 8 year old son reading.
Great selection, friendly and engaging staff. Awesome parking too!
Grew up at a local comic book store in Alaska, where I got my comic education, and now I can continue it here. All my questions are answered, advice given on getting new titles, and can BS about everything comic related.
Great shop. Super huge selection of new books and graphic novels.
Never read a comic before. Over the phone they answered questions I had on comics I wanted to read and if they had them. The store offers a wide variety of items, such as comics, figures, etc. In addition, the staff is very friendly. Will defiantly return.
Amazing place! They have a huge array of comics from a bunch of different creators, hell I never would have figured out about some of the series I love without this store.
Great selection, a little pricey. Parking is atrocious and the lot is filled with the ghosts of cars owned by the artists that reside in the surrounding buildings.
Great selection of recent books and huge back stock.
Tons of comics with a small manga collectio, great staff and great selection of comic related goods.
Best comic shop around, always have the latest titles, plus an amazing selection of back issues, staff is knowledgeable and awesome, kid friendly, Ive been getting all my comics here for years, plus Pokemon, MTG, sports cards non sport cards, toys, adult literature, all around 1 stop shopping for your collectable needs, stop in you wont regret it!!!!
