Question:
Can anyone make any recommendations on an excellent online Comic book
store that has current issues for sale as well as back issues? I've done a
Google search but most of the sites that appear seem kinda amatuerish.
Answer:
-I highly recommend www.mycomicshop.com, based in Texas. Free shipping if you
buy more than $50, which is a number (to my wife's dismay) I reach with
ease. I've never had a problem with shipping, and the books are always
packed securely.
-I have been using Westfield Comics (http://westfieldcompany.net/) for
almost twenty years now. Not saying that they have the best deal but I
never had any problem with them.
-Other good online sources include
bestcomics.com
grahamcrackers.com
bedrockcity.com
http://www.the-master-list.com/
http://dmoz.org/Arts/Comics/Retailers/
The last two links are for directories of comics shops.
Also, Comics Buyers' Guide has a plentiful number of ads and and a
directory of online retailers.
Finally, CBG periodically publishes a a little booklet called
'Collecting Comics on the Web.'
I have a couple of extra copies and will happily mail one to you.
If you're interested, e-mail me directly your street addy and I'll send
off!
