One of my favorite places to go when I was young. Joe may not wear a cape but he is still a hero to me. I remember the store when it was on Broadway street and called "One Flight Up". If you want a great experience while having a great conversation and getting to read some awesome books? Get to this place, it's always worth a trip. Just go and enjoy.

If you find yourself in the Newark NJ area, do yourself a favor and stop by The Fortress of Solitude! So much awesomeness to look at, back issues and recent issues as far as the eye can see! Definately a sight to behold! Had the honor of meeting owner Jose as well and he was a class act guy! Hope to visit again soon! ♂️??❤

One of my favorite intimate comic shops. The young lady who works the opening shift is nice and welcoming. She isn't the biggest comic fan, she helps her dad out. She brings the balance to the store.The owner is amazing, really nice guy. This is a place you can build relationships with. The place is small, intimate, and vintage like.. it isn't your big box comic shop like midtown comics or forbidden plant. The new comics are laid out on a table and not on a shelf. It works for the place.If they don't have what you're looking for, the owner is willing to order it for you if he can. Because they take care of their customers.Only thing this place is missing is better organization with new and old comics. (A shelf system) and hard to find action figures/statues.

Great selection of current books and paperbacks to get you up to speed on any story. Really good sized shop too with lots of figures and things like that. Staff is friendly. Looking forward to going more.

Just as good as Midtown comics in NYC , they literally have any issue of any series you could be interested in. Action figures are at great prices for the hoarders and collectors of today. I can't wait to go back and start my Silver Surfer collection. Thank you FoS !!
