  Great shop for comic books tshirts,games,etc. If you're into comics, you must come here. Staff is always knowledgeable. The space is actually a bit more roomy than the original space they had down the street. Gets crowded on weekends, but that's pretty common around union square.

  This place is pretty awesome, I just wish that they had more. I personally like getting the Gundam Model Kits which seem to have taken a back seat at this place. Definitely focusing more on comics.

  The biggest comic book and comic related figure and memorabilia store. What people don't know is that this is the cheapest place to buy any comic character-related t shirts. Two shirts of your choice for only $30 with plenty of design to choose from. Tends to get crowded in weekends so plan your visit accordingly. There is also another massive Forbidden Planet sister store by Covent Garden area on Shaftesbury street in central London.

  Great stuff, a shame there is no place to seat but still worth a visit. If you see a Funko you like, buy it immediately or else it will go fast! Look for the $1 comic stand, it's worth a visit.

  Fantastic comic shop for new books and merchandise. There doesn't seem to be a back-issue section however. Beyond that, the store is huge (for Manhattan) and the staff from my interactions are friendly and approachable. I work around the corner and stop in a few times a month. Make mine Forbidden Planet.
