Classic Comic book shop. If you go in with kids please check to make sure they aren't staring at stuff you don't want them to stare at. Everything is either too sexy, too creepy or too weird. Whatever happened to safe and fun comics? That's not Bob's fault though. They regulated the FREE COMIC BOOK DAY again restricted us to only 2 per person. Big bummer! I go there to Bob's pretty much every year for FREE COMIC BOOK DAY!

My son just came of age and very interested in comics with in the past 6 months. We live in Westfield and there isn’t a Comic book store in our community, so we have sampled many in the surrounding area. (30 min drive radius) Overall Bob’s is our favorite. Carl the owner is always very patient, professional, friendly and helpful. He doesn’t just talk to me, as he knows I’m the one holding the purse strings. He engages in conversation with my 8 year old son, shares insights and perspective but within boundaries, whereby my son is neither influenced positively nor negatively in his judgement and exploration of comic brands, writers, artist or characters. Selfishly, I’d like to keep this place a secret, my own private hidden gem. Respecting the community and this solid business owner, I highly recommend this business for any newbie, amateur, intermediate or avid comic enthusiast/collector. Bonus- I love the old school comic shop look and feel, very nostalgic.

Very average. Nothing really wrong with it, but probably won't go back. Pretty decent selection, but Enfield has 2 places that are noticeably and significantly better in all regards. Most Excellent and Matt's.

Back in the 90s when I was collecting comics there were several choices in the area: Altered Earth (being my favorite), Dragons Lair, Same Bat Channel, and Bobs Hobbies. It’s great that Bob’s is still around and I stopped in for the first time in 30 years recently. Had a great chat with the new owner Carl. I moved to CT so other stores are closer and easier to get to, but Bobs will definitely be on my list of stores to get to once in a while.

Love this shop. I don't get to stop in as often as I'd like but when I do the owner is always nice to talk to and helps me find any book I'm looking for. No hype pricing, everything is reasonable. If you're a true collector/reader I'd urge you to stop by. Speculators are better off going somewhere else. Looking forward to my next adventure here.

I will always come here to get comics. Newbury Comics has nothing on this place, plus it's so much closer! Super knowledgeable about comics and has a lot to choose from. If there is something you need or would like, he does an excellent job of keeping an eye out for you. I love going and chatting with the owner and others who stop by.

Clay the new owner is so accommodating and willing to answer any questions and go above and beyond. I wish that he could get some reliable help so he’s not always stuck it’s a lot of work filling orders responding to calls and this truly is a hidden gem in not just the greater Springfield area, but the entire Comics and collectibles community. They will special order anything you want and they have over 100 years of back stock and pop culture history in these hallowed halls of geekdom. Completely welcoming and inviting place, not a gatekeeper atmosphere or a get your stuff and leave. They really truly love the art the stories and the community that loves this incredible form of storytelling. Tell you friends tell your family tell everyone you know, make this a historical landmark and tell Clay and staff when they are healthy how much they are appreciated and grateful for passing their love to the next generations. God bless y’all keep up the great work.
