Old enough to know better, and yet, I don’t.

What about this comic shop stands out to you as unique? Please share a positive experience or further detail to help us get to know the store's impact! I have never left OK Comics without a smile on my face. They're as happy as many truly relevant and thoughtful recommendations as you want as they are to let you browse in isolation. They highlight books, titles and themes which are thought-provoking and challenging over commercially known. I love that the floor you enter on is entirely indie (Image is as you walk in!) and especially nonfiction leaning. They're a lovely team of people who are the blueprint for comic shops in my humble opinion.
