Online Store !About Chicago ComicsChicago Comics was founded in 1991 with the hope of bringing a large and comprehensive comic book selection to the Chicagoland area. Specilizing in small press and hard to find indie comics titles, we also carry almost all available superhero titles and merchandise. With our sister store Quimby's ( located at 1854 W. North Ave. and on the web at www.quimbys.com ), we have kept our focus simple. The best comics on Earth can be found here, from the finest in mainstream press to the best new talent from up-and-comers!Behind the counter is our wall of highly collectible key issue comic books. If you're looking for more expensive Golden and Silver Age backstock, and you can't find it in our backstock bins, chances are we may have it behind the counter. Ask and yee shall receive!We also have a HUGE backstock collection. Yes, those are drawers filled to the brim with backstock. Don't see something you're looking for? Ask!

Hand's down greatest city comic store ever

as an old timer - well 45 anyway - and originally from NY, Chicago Comics feels like an ORGANIZED Forbidden Planet back in the day.... The CC help is awesome - they know all their subscribers by name; my books are pulled out and waiting by the time I walk from the front door to the checkout counter. Love these guys.

A decent selection of comic books and related paraphernalia, but I agree with the other reviewers, the staff totally give off that condescending hipster vibe, and they'll just talk to each other throughout the whole transaction without even saying 'hi' to you. Maybe it's coincidence, but I've noticed in record, book, and comic stores, that the ones with the rudest staff are also the ones where the area behind the counter is 2 or 3 feet above the section where the customer stands, so that they can literally look down on you, and you have to strain and stretch your arm to put your money up on the counter.

If you like trendy...

I stopped by this comic store recently and the word that comes to mind is ��Trendy��. It has a great selection of everything, new comics, trades, mags, toys, etc. but it felt like a used record store, do you know what I mean? It had that ��we are too cool for you�� feel. The employees look like they should definitely work in a used record store and there snobby attitude also fit that scenario. I felt as though I was intruding upon there space when I walked in and the feeling didn��t change while I walked through the store. So, if you don��t care about feeling comfortable in your comic store, this is the one for you. Otherwise I��d keep looking.
