Writing on the behalf of my husband, who didn’t have the best experience in the store today. He is on the spectrum and has a huge passion for collecting comics. For some people on the spectrum, social situations can be anxiety inducing. As other reviews stated, the owner is not friendly and did not greet my husband when he came in. My husband found the comic he wanted, and the owner came up behind him in an accusatory manner and asked him a snarky question about where he found the comic. He found it in the B section for Batman and explained this and then the owner just walked away, making it seem like he did something wrong. Along with the fact that my husband was unaware of who was working because of his demeanor and the unresponsiveness in the shop. The owner was chatting with a close friend while my husband waited to check out and politely said that he found what he was looking for. The owner gave him attitude for mentioning that he was ready for check out, and interrupting his conversation. My husband didn’t know anything about the store, the checkout line, and was just confused. The owner has terrible customer service skills and made him feel awful about being in the store, like he was intruding. As he exchanged the funds, the owner gave zero response, no option for a receipt or bag and just walked away. I get people have bad days and customer service can be a really tough role. However, reading these reviews it seems like this guy doesn’t care. Just a heads up, if you know or are someone with a disability I wouldn’t recommend coming here. Check out Ash Ave comics, they are very friendly and have an inclusive/safe environment.

I just moved too Tempe on university drive & thought I'd give the comic shops a look in the area . Im pretty sure I spoke to the wife of Brandon and she didn't have a problem helping me out . Very good people and very good deals . It's one of those comics shops that will have you looking cause there's just so much to choose from and you might be surprised with some hidden gems . I recommend giving them a look if you are in the area

I went in to drop off a green lantern comic to be sent off for grading. The staff was polite and helpful. Excited to get my comic back!

What is not to like about Brandon's Comics. I am 54 years old, and been reading and collecting comic books since I was 5.Brandon's has it all.....great selection of back issues. The walls are plastered with many current and older comics, you could lose track of time just scanning the walls.And if you want your prized comics sent off to be graded by CGC.....Brandon's helps with all your needs. Great staff, Brandon makes you feel welcome and gets you excited just for sharing time at his store.

I enjoy the selection of Brandon's Comics but, the way the store looks inside was a complete mess. I haven't been there in over a year and came in this week and there was stacks of boxed everywhere of McFarlane DC Figures, Comics all over the tables, counters, I mean you just don't know where to begin. Then the small isle that only would fit 2 people at the most. I think it would be a much better shop if it was organized better than looking like a hoarder living there. Also heard a customer arguing at Brandon over the prices. There was some items marked at a price but Brandon tells the guy it's not that price anymore its higher because the book went up in value. I know books goes up and down but if you already have a price marked on it you have to go by it not tell someone No! the price change we just didn't change it? lol After I Checked out dude asked me if I wanted a bag and I had maybe 7 books and said yes and he said there are bags next you just help yourself? I mean that customer service sucks. I wouldn't go there again. Ill stick yo Collectors Choice.

I met Brandon through my cousin who played football with his son. He's a great guy who is really helpful with all your comic needs. He runs a cgc booth at Phoenix fan fusion. He can help you meet lots of artists, local and big time. He store is super cool with lots of comics ranging from DC to dark horse comics. Highly recommend for everything comic related! Five stars!

I was a family friend of Brandon’s and he offered me a job as a CGC witness at his comic con booth this year. It was a total blast and an amazing opportunity. This was my first ever con and thanks to Brandon it was one of the best experiences of my life. I got to meet William shatner, Jeremy renner, paul bettany, katee sackhoff, ashley eckstein, James Taylor, Jim lee, George’s jeanty, and many many more actors and artists. Brandon is one of the most helpful people in this industry and I recommend going to him for any of your comic book needs

If you are looking to do business at a legitimate comic book store this is not the one. I have heard several complaints from numerous customers regarding the owner (Brandon) and how he treats customers. I decided to give the comic book store a chance and this place sucked. Highly suggest going to other comic book stores in the valley.

Brandon's comics is an awesome store for all your comic needs, some awesome statues/figures, pokémon cards and funkpops and the odd rare find. Coupled with a cool website to find what you need, I'll definitely be stopping by again!
