“Great store filled with pop culture merchandise. Staff are incredibly helpful. Would have been nice to pick up a Candycon controller but they haven’t received inventory yet. No matter I can order online and pick up in-store. They even have home décor available online.”
“The shop is excellent, well stocked an the owner very hands on an helpful. I must really like this shop because a round trip for me is 128 miles, but it's well worth it.”

“Title: The Unbelievable Comic Emporium in Palm DesertImagine a place in Palm Desert where superheroes chill, anime characters host meet-and-greets, and T-shirts cooler than your fridge's insides. That's Comics and Anime. This store is like if your favorite comic book exploded and the pieces landed perfectly on shelves. The owners? Legends. They treat you like you're the long-lost ruler of Asgard. Brought my kiddos and they went nuts—found rockstar gear that made them look like mini Mick Jaggers, vintage comics that smell like history, and anime merch that's fresher than a new episode. Even snagged Hello Kitty swag for the toddler, who's now the cutest fan in the galaxy. This place doesn't just sell stuff; it sells experiences wrapped in awesome sauce. Miss out, and it's like skipping pizza at a birthday party. Who does that?”
“My kids absolutely love coming here. They love seeing the huge collector FunkPops and comic books.
Love how they have a variety of different vintage items.”

77622 Country Club Dr STE J, Palm Desert“This is a great trading store. They regularly get new items and trading cards, making it a fun weekly stop for pokemon fans of all ages. Charlie was awesome! I explained that my husband and I are both trying to learn how to play, and he took the time to show us basic gameplay. He also told us that people come in to play every Saturday at 3 pm. I am sure we will be back!They have way more than just pokemon too. All sorts of cards. Everything from sports cards and memorabilia to Magic and SO much more. Pretty much if it's a card based trading game... they have it.Charlie has taken time with us each time we have come in and even showed us his personal battle deck.”

Palm Desert“I love bookstores, and this one even has its own restroom. The latest bestsellers were displayed in a way that beckoned you to check them out. This store is light and bright with plenty of space to navigate around the displays and has a full selection of magazines. Prices are reasonable, and there was only a short line to check out.”
