Superheroes Store This is the place to go when your inner Batman takes over. The store is jam-packed with really great comic book stuff for the collector as well as the casual fan. I dropped in recently to just browse and ended up walking out with some really terrific Wonder Woman and Spiderman banks.
Best comic store! I heart the huge selection and total lack of attitude. So many events and sales and the staff is super knowledgeable.
SCAMMERS – Tried to buy the latest issue of FM #252, looking specifically for an incentive cover by Stout. Was told they had one in their staten Island store & they could send it to nyc. Great. I called SI store, described cover. they confirmed they had it & would send it to NYC by 10/29 (this is on 10/27) I get to nyc store only to find regular issue in the bag. Obviously someone in store got wind of the potential value of this issue & retained it (or sold it or will sell it later) claimed ignorance of cover difference. Thi... read more
Great Selection – I just want to say that whoever said that nothing in life is free is wrong. I've sat for hours and hours on end reading books at this store. I realize that I'll buy a coffee or a danish but they don't make me and this store has prime seating and the place is always so clean and the service is incredible. I would recommend going here just to lose yourself in a good book and a quite atmosphere. I know QUITE, its a word heard very rarely in this city. Go ahead and give it a try you'll love it.
An exhaustive comics store for almost everyone, from superhero groupies to independent 'zine addicts. – In Short Despite its odd location, the store houses a huge selection of comics for just about everyone. Readers can find comprehensive collections of all the major superhero publishers, along with a thorough selection of imports, independents, undergounds, adult comics, art-house comics, graphic novels and historical anthologies. More importantly, the store is spacious, well-lit, open late, and everything is neatly alphabe... read more
Yay TinTin comics – I used to work a block away from the midtown comic store last year & I was sorta dissapointed when they told me they didn't have any Tin Tin Comics. Some of the staffs had no idea who Tin Tin was. Today, when my boyfriend & I were walking to MACY's, I noticed Sally from Nightmare before Christmas in one of the store's window. That's how we discovered Jim Hanley's Universe, Where Art and Literature Meet. They had more than 15 Tin Tin comics. I bought "cigars of pharaoh" & "the castafiore emerald". I know I... read more
Jim Hanley's Universe -- Welcome To A Strange New Place Jim Hanley's Universe in New York, NY is close to Madison Square Garden, and from the looks of the place, it definitely caters more towards the tourists that frequent the area. That would explain the lack of back issues which is the first thing I noticed. Fortunately, this store is looking to remedy this situation as they are willing to buy old comic books from those willing to part with their precious collections.
great selection of new comics These guys are the best! They have all of the newest comics and a lot of the independent rare to find comic book publishers as well. They also carry manga and DVDs of the better known anime out there. The store is large and they they have a so-so inventory of older comics. I'd definitely check them out! They sometimes have special signings as well!
Jim Hanley's Universe Jim Hanley's Universe is a great comic store located down the block from Madison Square Garden. They have hundreds if not thousands of different graphic novels as well as tens of thousands of comic books. THe service could be a little better but this is a tremendous place to shop for comic related material.
