Amazing Heroes

★★★★★

“We came to visit on a Sunday afternoon. The owner was very friendly and easy to talk to. As two women walking into a comic shop, he made us feel welcome and was very approachable. The store had everything we were looking for and had the best stock of any comic store we’ve been too recently. The shelves were organized well and the comics were good quality. They also had books, omnibuses, and figures. I highly recommend giving this store your patronage if you like comics. I will make the longer drive to support this store and will be coming back.”

“This is a top-tier comic shop. It has an excellent collection of new and old comics, one of the best collections of trade paperbacks in the area, figurines and more. The store is well organized, packed with stuff - and everything you would expect in a classic old school comic shop. Steve, the owner, knows comics well and can provide valuable guidance and information. Prices are reasonable, and the stock is high quality - and in some cases, unique. I picked up some things I was looking for that I hadn't seen in other shops. Check Amazing Heroes out if you are in NJ. It's worth the visit.”

“Walked in with the intention of reading some comics & leaving with a nice review after buying some that I liked (originally came with no intention of buying anything, but I saw a few figures & comics I liked; now I’m taking my business elsewhere). The heavy set white unc with glasses advises me while skimming through a comic that: “We frown upon it & consider it stealing. You can buy it, take it home, and read it” - in this economy, are you serious? I walked out, but this wasn’t my 1st time dealing with the owner along with my friend for the 2nd time this year. I walked out exactly like last time (2 months ago): upset. My only conclusion is that the owner has no sense of situational awareness as to why he now has a smaller shop & moved. With all your competition on RT. 22 alone like Barnes & Noble and online retailers with resellers on eBay, Amazon, etc., are you seriously giving sass & being condescending to all your customers instead of adding onto your sales? Are you allergic to money or building a community? You bragged about being banned in Pokemon Go while not hacking not too long ago, but it’s a kids game? Tells me a lot about the owner. I used to come to your comic book shop since I was a kid because of my middle school teacher - I’d bring friends there to this shop’s old & new locale… I used to play Yugioh & MTG there: it will never get better & has been downhill since moving to the new location. Take your business somewhere else instead of this LCS, especially if you count your losses: the business has outgrown its place in the community. You pay more here than online especially if you love comics or originally came from the MTG or other TCG scenes.”
