A must see comic book store! The owner saw us waiting outside and opened up the store early. That was a nice touch. Great selection of comics books and collectables. They have unique t-shirts designed by local artists and a selection of Simpson sketches for those Bart fans.

Excellent shop for new comics and collectibles. Also some nice Silver and Bronze Age comics.

Great place. This is my local comic shop and should be supported against the corporate comic places. Friendly vibes, easy-going atmosphere. Good prices, new releases, hidden gems, cool toys too. Great customer service, noobs and veterans welcome alike. Last time I went, I was short like 2 bucks and the owner gave me a free comic anyway.

Really nice small shop. Not a gigantic selection but definitely enough to keep you occupied for a while hunting around. Lots of new stuff. And lots and lots of TPBs. Roomy and spacious. I don’t know if that’s their normal or if they spread things out due to the pandemic. But it’s nice. When in town next will definitely stop in again.

My first time ever going to a comic book store, the guy working there was so nice and extremely helpful. The other customers were pleasant and willing to give advice. Overall an amazing atmosphere and I definitely will be returning.

I have known Stephen socially for years and was thrilled when I heard that he was turning his passion into his business. I live in NYC and read DC occasionally and have a place that I like to go to browse and pick up new and back issues (I am currently collecting old Little Archies). Unfortunately, due to the pandemic laws, the shop was not allowed to ship to me nor was I able to go and pickup curbside. So, in April I reached out to Stephen to find out if hed ship. It seemed ridiculous to buy from a shop all the way on the other side of the country, but Im glad that I did. Not only could I help a friend, not only could I support a small owner run business, but I appreciated Stephens passion and work ethic. Let me tell you a brief story - the place I mention above thats here in NYC has a great selection and I really like the guy who runs it, but they fail at followup. Ive had to chase them multiple times to order things and simply respond to emails. With Stephen, not only has he been on top of every order/communication, but just a couple weeks ago reached out to me to ask if Id like to purchase new issues of X&&Z that I have been following. In two days they were in my hand. Now thats a good businessman and anyone who can follow up better than me has my respect and my business. Going forward, as long as it makes sense to continue buying from a store 3000 miles away, I will. BTW the issues showed up in pristine condition. I am truly grateful to Stephen for being able to provide a service during a difficult time. Getting a little package of goodies in the middle of this horror show has been a godsend. I highly recommend Interstellar!!

I really like this place, mainly because it is within walking distance from where I work. I do feel like that when it comes to new comic book releases they tend to only have a small amount ordered so it sells out fast.

Customer service Is lacking, would always stop by when in palm springs, my last time was not good, middle aged man working maybe the owner, not attending customers, just watching Big bang on TV . Will never go back.

This is a funky, fun offbeat sort of place. The perfect spot to get geeky. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly and extremely helpful. I was with a friend that wanted to check it out and he had a great experience. If you like comics and collectibles, stop in for a visit.

Well stocked for new issues from both majors and leading independents but thinly stocked for trades despite acres of shelving of trades. Clean, almost minimalist store display in a modern red/black design scheme.Friendly and amenable manager. Space has been added at the back for MTG players. Opening hours/days can be unpredictable - best to call the store before making a special trip down there. Good location.It doesnt have a sense of community yet, but theres a sense that the store is slowly evolving and gradually finding its way.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, but the selection was tiny. They only had two small shelves of comics in the entire store. One shelf Marvel, one shelf DC. Very limited selection with in those small book shelves. Hopefully they will add more shelves in the future; maybe it was like that because ot is newly opened.

I went there yesterday and the store was actually a lot smaller on the inside than what it looks like from the street. It does have a smallish collection of comic books, but that will change over time. It has a number of other collectibles, including a few Magic the Gathering packs of the recent sets.The owner has also taken the time to go to wizards and have the capacity to have sanctioned events for FNM. He seems genuinely willing to have an aside project just for magic by devoting the space for us. To this end I am extremely satisfied with what I saw and experienced there. I am going to do everything I can to make sure this place succeeds.

I was coming to this comic shop weekly along with my brother.We would both spend a minimum of 20-30 dollars each time. I thought I would set up a pull list to get some of the newer comics releasing before they sold out as I wouldnt be in the area until Friday.So I set up the list leave my name and number. Come back the following week Friday and ask the guy with glasses who I assume is the owner about my pull list he had my name down but did not pull one single comic I had asked for.He then went on to tell me that that some of the comics he had pulled for me were on the rack where anyone could have grabbed them....uhhh okay thats your pull list?I wonder if others got he same treatment.Owner then went to the back and pulled a copy DC rebirth which I had asked for and a captain America variant that I did not want.Wanted the original .But I guess this guy figured he could sell or keep the issues for himself and f*** the customer.You have truly lost mine and my brothers business, there was not much keeping me going here in the first place besides it being close.So I will now frequent desert oasis.

Visited from out of town. Great shop with very friendly customer service. Found a lot of issues to fill in gaps on some of our current, incomplete collections. Also have us tips on other places we should visit while in the area including the two shops in Palm Desert, and Frank and Sons up near LA. Wouldnt have been as cool of a vacation without his advice.

Worst place to go for Friday night magic and MTG Cards. Charges you 15$ for two booster packs and the place Im at only charges 5$ each. They also make you pay for Friday night magic when it should be free. You cant even bring your own cards!!! I AM NEVER GOING HERE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!
