You could ask for nothing more out of comic book store. I drive from the next town over for my books. Top notch service!

Great comic book and action figure selection. The customer service is great and very pleasing to conversant. They were very understanding of my 5yr daughter and her rambunctious nature. Pricing was on par or below average retail on all items.

Classic comic store layout. Friendly staff. Similar vibe as the old school comic store I used to frequent as a youth in the 90s - focus is clearly on comics. Large selection of both comics and figures. My kindergartner appreciated the well stocked kid-friendly section.

Super neat place, very informal. Didn't have what I was looking for, but they tried all options available to point me in the right direction.

I have only given a 1 star rating because I can not give a 0 star rating.If you are looking to sell your comics I would recommend going elsewhere. While my experience was with Ultimate Comics Cary I am leaving this review with all their stores as all locations share the same proprietors.I was an avid collector and enjoyer of comics prior to grad school, although my collection was not a curated as those of others. However, since graduating grad school last year I have not had as much time to enjoy the hobby as I would like and decided to part with my collection.While I realize I might not upon first glance look like one might expect a comic fan to look, my collection is bagged, boarded, and cataloged with current updated values, including the condition of the comics.I reached out to Ultimate Comics to sell my collection and was directed to the Cary location. I provided a list of my collection prior to my appointment to bring my collection onsite for review and was told that lists were not necessary, they would look at the comics when I arrived. I did certainly expect them to look through my collection to ensure the titles noted and the condition of the comics but was surprised they were not interested in the list.What they told me, after reviewing my comics and picking out a few to price in the back, was that it was their policy to only offer 20% MSRP in cash.After their offer we did not discuss what they would offer in store credit because they offered me $100 for the entire collection, 2 long boxes and 2.5 short boxes.My collection is currently valued at over $4000 retail value, including variant covers, editions, and condition of the comics. While they said they offered me 20% MSRP they, in fact, only offered me 2%.I do not blame the staff. They were pleasant and professional. The only other conclusion left available to me is that this is a policy created by the proprietors and pushed down to the staff who are forced to comply if they wish to keep their situation.Needless to say I will not be doing business with Ultimate Comics, either now or in the future. However, I wish them all the future success that the multiple local locations would lead me to conclude that this pricing policy has secured for them in the past.

Clean, well organized, family friendly comic store. If they don't have it, they'll find it for you!

Don't get me wrong, it's a business. Still felt welcoming though.Pros: I felt like I was in any other comic shop that has multiple locations in a metro. Good selection of current runs. The customer service was great and the atmosphere/music was right up my alley. Nice selection of collectibles.Cons: Pricey on the back issues for my liking, even though the selection was good. That was my primary reason for my visit, try to find another local-ish shop for back issues. Still in the process of getting back issues out on the sales floor, selection was limited. I know that will be remedied in time but I'd still give a 3/5 for the pricing on back issues. If they decide to tier the prices of back issues, (like most shops I've been in) I'll adjust to 4/5 stars.

Not ony is this spot beautiful, it's efficiently organized and staffed by people that know comics and understand the culture. Please support this comic book store if you're in the area. Their title selection is great and they have toys set at accessible prices as well as collectors pieces.

This is my local comic shop. They have a great selection and will order what isn’t in store. The staff is always great to interact with. They offer a deal on subscriptions which is great as well.

Great store and good selection, but rude employee tonight. No hi or thank you for our purchase. Zero interaction with my family. Pretty poor practice, and definitely doesnt make us want to drive an hour to come here next time.
