Great little shop, wall to wall and ceiling to floor, shelves and shelves of comics. All carefully organized and neat. Easy parking out front, and the owner is super knowledgeable about everything. Highly recommend + + for all your reading needs.

The store is so cramped and tiny. There is no variants no cgc graded books at all. When I asked why the man behind the counter he said because it cost $30 to get the books graded.I replied by saying if you sell the book for $75 doesnt it make it worth the $30 to get it graded and if customers are asking for it why not. Then I asked for a few Doctor Doom books the man said they are in storage in the back and would not get them unless I knew what issues. I was like just get the Doom books and let me look I got cash. He did not do it. Bad selection of books many are damaged no a/c and he rushes you. Worst comic store I ever visited. The other reviews for this store must be the owners family and friends. Go to earth world in albany its worth the trip

Electric City Comics is one of my favorite places in Schenectady. Bill and Jevon are the kindest, smartest, best people youll find, and I love stopping in to talk with them. Theyll gladly give great recommendations that are always spot on.

A comic shop that is easy to navigate. The owner has a ton of passion and knowledge towards comic books. This place isnt huge but you will find everything you need here. In the Capital region this is hands down the best LCS around.

I love Electric City Comics! It is the perfect neighborhood comic shop. The staff are always friendly and willing to help. For a smaller shop, it has an excellent selection. A wonderful blessing for local comic book fans.

Knew the owner from back in his days at Jerrys Trading Post. He turned me on to Daredevil (when Miller had a great run in the early 80s) and Ive been addicted ever since. Havent been back to the States in almost a decade, but it was great store run by Jevon and I miss my weekly trip there...

There are not very many options for comic fans in the area but Electric City is a nice, small shop with a knowledge owner. Prices are decent, its a better shop for new issues than back issues.
