Had a horrible experience here a while back. Owner was extremely rude to not only me, but also some children that were in there with me. Would NEVER recommend. Go elsewhere.

I always support small business and what I mean by that is a Mom&Pop shop. Not a multimillion dollar family business. Berkeley has 2 genuine comic shops and this is one of them. Formerly on Shattuck they are now only a few blocks down from University on MLK in a nice small quaint spot that means business. What is that you ask? Well one word Comics! New books every week! Some back issues hidden away for a more than fair price and even some grade-able gems. If ya do mums the word. Beware its comics so ephemera is not the focus. But some $1 dolla holla deals are to be had.

Uel and his vast wisdom about all things comic books and beyond is what makes it truly Fantastic. Frankly it's impressive on any level the passion he has for his life's work and how lucky he is to be doing it well while sharing it with the community. If you've taken a long hiatus since the days he was a dour-faced youth at comic relief working under Rudy, or more recently the Jack-of-all trades Owner/worker/Entertainer at his shops previous location on Shattuck next to HPB. COME BACK and restore the fires of your imagination with all the great characters and stories we grew up on! Comic books are as awesome as ever if not better and Fantastic Comics is the Berkeley spot to get them!

If I could give less than one star, I would. Horrible extremely rude owner. Rude to some children in the store from the moment I stepped in. When I asked to see the basement section which was advertised as a section for back issues, I was refused to go down there after politely asking to check. He said: "Why would you go down stairs?" and as I tried to explain he cut me off and said "If you dont know, you dont KNOW". I immediately left after such a hostile attitude that made this store an uncomfortable environment to be in. Probably the worst comic book shop ever. I just wanted my boyfriend to have a nice time :( . We definitely did not choose to make any problems and the owner pictured here blind sighted us with his poor attitude

Store is tiny. Can only fit like 4 people. Not sure where these pictures came from, but it's not the same store.

If this is your local comic book shop and your collecting your monthly drop this is probably a much better store than a 3. However if you are from out of town save yourself the Uber fare and go somewhere else or call ahead and ask if they have what you need. The story is tiny and the photos are out of date. Check out Google street view.
