Great shop, recently visited for May 5th free comic book day with my kid. Had so much fun we came back the next day and spent a lot here. The staff is awesome, and they have a plethora of comics! If you get the bug to collect make this place your first stop! Good prices and great products. They are a wealth of knowledge!
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. They have such a huge collection of everything its where I go for all my nerd stuff
I have been coming to A-1 Comics since I was a kid, at all the different locations.The walls are covered in all sorts of cool stuff, and you can buy just about anything you can think of here!The staff is friendly and helpful if youre looking for something specific.They also have pretty great deals and sales from time to time.
They were more honest with the value of my magic cards then most of the other shops in the area.
Very nice and clean place, I go here a lot to look around a lot, kind of sucks how some of their anime figurines are damaged because they came like that which is a bummer, always have some nice stickers and very friendly staff. Also they rarely restock on manga which is kind of sad but they still have a huge selection, also lots of high quality marvel stuff in there. I have been coming here for 5+ months and they never disappoint. I definitely recommend going here!!!
Comics, collectibles, toys, and role-playing games. These are the things a growing child needs in their lives.Also, a huge section of graphic novels and manga.Its a local business, not some weirdo popup chain store. Support them.
An institution in itself. Their compound boasts a vast variety of comics, collectibles, and statues alike. This is a go to place especially for free comic book day
A-1 comics is the best shop in our area. You can find your books your looking for and in most cases the grade you want.
Quality comic shop ! I highly recommend
I believe this is their main location and boy o boy it shows. Lots of statues, even more trade paperbacks, and back issues. Some retro toys and a whole lot of DnD supplies. Workers are great are happy to answer any and all questions. 5/5
I have been a customer of this store since I moved back here in October of 2018.I cannot possibly say enough good. things about the owner and staff. If you are looking for current comics. or back issues this is definately the place to start.Since they have three stores in close proximity to this area, they have a large stock to check. I know if you are a casual or especially a serious collector as I am you will not be disappointed.!As I continue to get my comics at A1, the service and the friendly atmosphere continue to be all that any true comics collector would ever want.!
Not the same place I went to as a kid almost 30 years ago. Tried to sell comics but lady was dry, under valued comics and offered me 30 percent of that. Telling me they barely paid anything would have saved us both time but conversation seemed to bother her. So I didnt sell my comics to the place I bought most of them from. Maybe ill try again in another 30.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff, love popping in to see what new books dropped on Wednesdays
Fantastic selection of everything nerdy and stellar customer service. The employees there answered all of my boys questions and even hunted down the specific comics they were searching for. This by far the best comic book store weve ever been to. They also hold live auctions through their social media which they recommended we use to buy the two missing comics we couldnt get in the store at the time. I highly recommend this store!!!
Really friendly staff and a massive store. Never spent so long in a store as I did then. Yugioh is limited to one glass case and a massive box to rummage through, unlike others, but in rest its very organized.
Absolutely LOVE A-1! The staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. This is definitely my go to comic store...they usually have whatever it may be that im searching for, and if not, usually I can just ask and theyll order or try to. The employees are awesome
Pretty cool comic book shop. They carry a wide array of games, pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, you name it, in addition to the latest to vintage comic books. It was a bit overwhelming to go through back issues because there were just so much goodness in each row. I had the kids with me and didnt expect to want to stay for the amount of time I did to find specific issues Ive been looking for. Ill probably come back without my little ones and have a list/plan before digging. Ill definitely be back.
I go to this place all the time. Usually each weekend. With recent events they have proven to be some of the coolest people to deal with! The whole staff is friendly, helpful and rad. Cant give them enough praise. I usually go for magic cards but I recommend them for all nerd needs!
A lot of new and used comics here. They also have Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, magic, and other cards.They have collectable figures and board games as well. The staff is helpful with questions.They also buy comics and cards here.
The lady there wasn’t very friendly at all probably won’t go back!This place and the employees rude and not helpful whatsoever
Fantastic place to go get comics. They also sell cards like pokemon and etc. Star Wars, GI Joe, Marvel collectables, game dice, posters, can also be found at this location. The store is also big inside and plenty of walking space between aisles. I would highly recommend this location to visit.
This is truly my neighborhood game store. They are always very helpful, genuinely warm and friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. I recently had a conversation with one of their staff members regarding getting started with painting miniatures. He took so much time assisting me not only with what I needed to buy, and how to use it, but also let me know what I neednt bother purchasing until I know if Im really going to get serious about the hobby. By the time I left the store, I felt like he had imparted the equivalent of an Associates degree worth of information to me. Thats what they do though at A-1 Comics. They go above and beyond to help, and make you feel at home.
Lmao this place is a joke horrible customer service I came in with 300 worth of Pokémon cards I get they have to make a profit but come on 35% is trash they offered me 100 dollars that’s not even 35 perfect can’t even do math horrible horrible place go to comic conmand in natomas they have 65 % way bettter customer service as well
Wide selection of cards and good inventory for rare and common products!
I like the store but wish they would update it a little bit.
Me and my dad went there to get Pokemon cards, everytime we opened Pokemon packets, we got really good cards and the chance of getting good cards was a 7/10 which is pretty good. It may be more money than we anticipate but its so worth it! So far its better than the comic store near my house so overall I give this store a 5 stars!
Had a great selection of comics, posters, and tcg cards. I was looking for gunpla but they only had a Penelope and one other kit. Worth checking out if you are around the area and wanting to kill some time.
One of the best comic book stores in Northern California. Great staff willing to go out of their way to help you. always friendly if youre a beginner are a veteran collector this is the place for you
Great comic shop with ALL of your needs. From comics to supplies to cards to posters ... Staff is extremely helpful and catering. Wish the had dollar bins but still a great shop. Lots of parking
This is a comic store at at heart. While comics are not a large passion of mine they do fullfil other passions. That have trading card games like pokemon and magic, table top games, and a above average selection of Funko pop and collectable statues. The staff were all masked and friendly, most of the staff were sincere with help and seemed to enjoy themselves at work. The environment was clean and very tidy. Its simply a clean open comic store. Recommend for the nerd in us all.
Its a small store, but they pack in the stuff. Knowledgeable and mostly friendly staff. Clean, well laid out, and fair prices for a small shop. Support your local comic/card/boardgame shop.
A-1 was my first comic shop and continues to be my go to. They have a big selection of back issues and trades and can usually order anything not in stock with an extra 20% off. Everyone here is really nice, very knowledgeable, and always ready to reccomend great new reads. There have been plenty of time where Im not sure where to start with a character or story arc and theyve help me sort it out. A-1 also does a lot of cool extra curricular stuff like annual blood drives and Instagram live sales.
This is a early nice comic book store, they have a big selection of comics and stuff for DnD and all kinds of magic cards
Very clean and friendly people. Lots and lots of goodies to look through
This place has the worst prices on Pokémon product and also some of the employees there don’t know jack about what they’re selling one guy was just sitting behind one of the desk not doing anything didn’t even offer to help grab cards or anything especially on release days there prices are jacked up when a lot of other places have stuff at msrp
A very large store, open and airy. Enough things that filled the store but not enough to make it look cluttered and messy. With a large selection of comics and a secondary selection of toys, cards, statutes its a true comic store. I was amazed of how organized this place is. I cannot recommend this store highly. It should be the standard of what comics stores should be
Before you begin saying, Why only 3 stars? Isnt the selection here good? It is. But the customer service is almost abysmal. I came in looking for cards and some help but everyone was either busy or conversing with other employees; not a single one was ready to assist me. I was crowding the display case of cards and none of them asked if I needed help. But theres other collective/comic/card shops in the area that do want your business.
Really great store, really helpful staff. Great variety of stock!
Took my 9 year old daughter here and she had her first experience paying for something on her own and was so stoked finding digimon mini plushies! She wants to visit all your stores
Top shelf comic and memorabilia dealer. Professional and courteous whether buying or selling. Aside from a private curator, this is the only place you want to be doing business in high profile trades.
Very friendly staff. Tons of choices for new comics, older comics, graphic novels, toys, games, statues. This is the place to go if you just cant find that comic youre looking for. Also they have very nice to hear mint/mint copies of all the books youre looking for. They even sell vintage toys. Awesome place!
Love this shop. Great selection of current and back issues. Staff is super helpful and its great to see staff of both genders working here. Its a usual stop when passing through Sac area.
Family owned shop that treats you like family! Love the service and the team at all 3 locations, highly recommend. If they dont have what you are looking for they will find it and their prices almost always beat the market value.
Amazing! Its been 6 years since Ive been able to go. It was like coming home. Theres a ton of new stuff, but still the familiar. Staff is always helpful and willing to look up any book for you. 😎👍👍👍👍
Manager wasnt wearing his mask properly and threatened to kick me out when I told him to pull it over his nose. Theres better game stores in Sac that actually care about their customers safety. I for one wont be back.
Has a good variety of comic books and figures. Yet the pokemon section is limited and overpriced! The employees are knowledgeable and helpful. But it sucks that a Snom was priced at 15.00 dollars when after checking tcg it was 1 to 2 dollars. Deffinately wouldnt come here for a bargain. Inflation way to hi.
This store is huge, they have an extensive collection of cards for magic pokemon and yu-gi-oh, as well as one of the largest DND sections I have ever seen, and as the name suggests an astronomical number of all kinds of comics, and even manga, this is a wonderful place to shop
Best comic and gaming store ever. I say that due to the friendly staff, extensive selections there. If you cant find what your looking for or have any questions I found the staff extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. It was even a good experience for my kids and the owner gave my 10 year old son a deal on an action figure he wanted to buy with his allowance. Cant say enough about this place except what are you waiting for go check it out!
A-1 comics what can I say the staff is great and Friendly and Knowledgeable. My cousin and I enjoy their online sale. Its been a year seen we started watching there online sales.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff with a good selection of new games. The used game selection is the best in Sacramento. There is a wide range of comics and collectibles. The one downside is a small gaming area. The upside to a small gaming area is the parking lot always has spaces available.If youre looking for a comic, collectible, or out of print used game then shop at this location.
This store is AWESOME. They got a great selection of issues, back issues, trades and other cool stuff like pictures, statues and figures. The people are also really nice and friendly. I say check it out!
Really nice local comic and gaming store, this is their main location. This place seems to be more centered around comics than other locations, but they still do carry some table top and rpg stuff as well as some things like MTG. Really nice, friendly staff.The only downside of this location is that there isnt a lot of room for gaming and such. If you are looking for more of that, check out the Citrus Heights location!
Their staff is friendly, attentive and helpful. The variety of comics, cards and collectables is vast. I recommend taking your friends and family because its a fun experience shopping at A1 Comics.
Out of all the comic books shops that I’ve been to in the U.S., A-1 Comics does it the best!! No one beats them! They are literally America’s #1 comic book shop!! They’re always so helpful & nice. They have a multi store wide selection of just about anything that you can think of. Whenever I come back from traveling I always make sure I stop by! They’re that good!!
The staff are very welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, and sociable. I enjoyed their witty banter in the background as I browsed. The parking lot was a little confusing to get into. I was astonished by the place! Tons of comic books, graphic novels, figurines and statues, board games, card games, and so much more.
There are only a handful of comic shops in Sacramento, but this one is by far the best. Big Brother comes close in second, but A-1 is my absolute favorite.The staff is friendly, and knowledgeable. The owner is very hands on and contributes to the everyday workings of the shop. Never had a bad experience.
Good selection, friendly staff, can tend to be crowded
Very nice comics store.
A-1 has been very accommodating, and Sylvan students enjoy acquiring comic books as a token prize for their hard work. By providing a variety of options, students get very excited whenever a new edition comes out, and it enhances their reading skills. I encourage Parents to provide comic books as an outlet, as it is the way for a young child to get interested, as it seems that electronics has taken over and reading is a lost art form.Every time I go to A-1, I have received nothing but best service and they are very informative. Highly recommended!
A-1 Comics has such a huge selection of comics and fun nerdy things! The staff is friendly and professional and knowledgeable about their inventory. Great shop!
I would give them 0-stars if I could. In my opinion this is a horrible comic store with horrible customer service and a disrespectful attitude on behalf of their employees. They are hypersensitive people and if your personality doesnt click with theirs then they will automatically block your eBay account from purchasing comics. Thats what they did to me. Very childish and immature behavior from a bunch of children who never matured into adulthood. I have read some of their other negative reviews here and apparently there is a pattern with regards to their poor customer treatment and bad attitude. They definitely need to brush up on their manners and develop some people skills.
This is hard, because I used to really like A-1 comics. But their customer service has really gone down hill and they really have no care for their customers.
Its ok as far as comic and game shops go. Some of the staff is great some are horrible yet continue to be employed by the company. They are decent on the comic side and can order anything (but so can everyone else). The gaming selection is only new or current edition which which they push hard but doesnt work for a true gamers that know older editions of some games are far better. Finally the mtg crowd here is every unfriendly and the clientele of a business is by far the most telling.
A-1 has all the new stuff and the best selection of back issues at a good price. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Found exactly what I was looking for.
Of the 5 local comic book stores I took my grandkids to the two A-1 stores (Auburn Blvd & Roseville) are the nicest. Clean. Organized. Employees look professional. I used to take my son to A-1 when he was a kid. Now, the next generation is learning to love comics! And, read, read, read!
It is a great place it has just about every comic, collectable or game you need. The employees are great and knowledgeable. If you are looking for something specific or maybe Ill print you will have to pay more than other places but still worth it definitely come in thats the last place to check if you havent found it around they probably will have it.
Knowledgeable staff, nice selection of action figures, tons of comics and RPG supplies. Top notch comic book store in our area (and there are two locations, both equally good, in my opinion). I came here for action figures not carried by the mainstream stores like WalMart and Target.
This place is great. Friendly staff, fair prices, just what I would expect from a comic book store. They have all types of stuff too from MTG, to Pokemon to DBS for card games, allllllll kinds of comics, a great selection of statues and collectibles of the like, as well as posters and manga. If you need it they probably have it. Ambiance is exactly what I picture a comic book store to be: boxes of stuff coming in, the staff having a conversation about the Guilds in MTG and how they relate, no music, smells like books. I love this place.
Ive been a customer of this store and its multiple locations for around 16 years now. The first time I ever played Magic was in their old location. The staff here is above and beyond. They are super friendly and helpful and will do small talk with you. They have a great knowledge of cards and collectibles. This is one of my go to places for anything related to cards or Nerd culture. If for some reason youve had a bad experience here then I feel sorry for you because you must have been a terrible customer.
Better then their other two branches by a mile. I wouldnt trade my comics or cards here but thats kind of common sense. They have a good section of gunpla, marvel legends, and comics.
Overpriced comics and the staff isnt knowledgeable about why they are so overpriced. Went in to browse a few times and they are selling graded comics $40+ higher than their actual graded worth. They even sell ungraded comics for far more than they are worth.The staff is also unresponsive and rude at times. If your shop is pretty much empty an hour before closing you should put more effort into helping customers. You should also not allow customers to leave their trade binders on the counter. This started an argument between myself and another customer who accused me of stealing when I didnt even touch their binder. The employee sided with the other customer because they were a regular and asked me to leave. The employee watched the the whole time and I was no where near the guys abandoned binder.This store is a joke.
Big place but they only helped you when you go there and asked. And when I asked owner was upset cause it was in the middle of his friends conversation. Customer service and customers is 2nd, but hanging out and killing time is definitely their #1 priority. Pretty expensive and the game card room is much smaller. I’m not impressed. You wont find a diamond comic her unless your interested in paying 3x the market value, crazy!If you live far, dont take the trip; its not worth the hassle unless you want to just hang out with the owners. Local comic store is recommended.
Been going here since 1988 always treated me with respect and very friendly
So much to choose from! Pokemon, MTG, yugioh, comics, figures, posters, and much much more! Have not been disappointed when I visited, and the occasional sale on certain items.If youre into this type of stuff, A-1 is definitely worth a visit.
Good wall comics, lots a comics to choose from. Friendly and knowledgeable help. All kinds of cards, merch and action figures. Delightful surprises on every aisle. Parking can be a bit scarce when things are busy, but getting in and out is pretty easy.
Used to love this place, unfortunately there seems to have been a huge shift in staffing here and we no longer shop here, ever.Around Christmas time we came in looking for a specific Board Game and got horrible, horrible service. I get it, its the Holiday season. Youre stressed. But literally telling my boyfriend Oh well maybe this game just isnt for you in a condescending tone is NOT okay.We used to frequent this place 1-2 times a week. Now we will go literally anywhere else.They need a serious overhaul of staff or a serious attitude change. Its unfortunate that I used to love this place and now never want to step foot in it.
Super friendly customer service with a great selection of fair priced goods. The employees made note to make personal connections and never seem annoyed about questions.
I love this place to death! i come every comic book day. JW, Jared, and Aly are the ones i tend to see and talk to the most. The store is always clean and full of back issues as well as new releases. They do have 3 locations, this however is not only close to me but I feel the best. This is the best place to buy comics in the city of sacramento hands down.
Amazing selection! Horrible, cramped play space. Browsing the board games is really awkward because you have to push in where the people are playing and put your butt in their face. Prices are a little on the high side, especially on Magic cards. I wish the sales would start on Friday instead of being one day sales so I could make it to one.
Love love LOVE this place. Great selection, great people and if they dont have what youre looking for, theyre happy to order it for you. The best comic shop in Sac.
Cool little spot to geek out at. They have comics,DND/Pathfinder, magic cards and a LOT of them! Great spot to find a new board game, A lot of figurines (no anime 😒) Gundam models, Pop figures. And thats just the stuff that I know of. Definitely a cool place to just look in and see whats in there. They change the layout from time to time so its not the same old thing. Over all ready cool place!
The people working everything I stop by are helpful and passionate about comics. Yes, a lot of options on the shelf.
I go here whenever the one in Roseville is low on their stock. The choice is better here when it comes to Gundam models but not as good for Pokemon cards when compared to Roseville. I rate it 11/10 would Gundam here again as well!
I have been really happy with the online sales. A bit far from where I live, so sadly not on weekly pull list. A must go spot for back issues. Love the selection and happy with every experience. Thank You.
The best comic shop of all time. The people always know what they areclking about and will do anything they can to help you get what you are after.
Good gaming store. 4 stars instead of 5 because I bought an item from them that after looking closely at it looks warn and previously used. I cant consciously cant give a lower rating because I didnt fully inspect until I got home. I bought a caring case for card and when I got home noticed one of the zipper pulls missing and obvious ware on the zipper and other parts of the bag.
Been shopping with A1 since 1993 when they were at their old location. Comics, toys, collectables, accessories, rpg components, decent trading card inventory thats usually priced on point with other online retailer prices, they host social and competitive gaming events, and more often than not youll get prompt and courteous service. Easy to spend a lot of money here. They buy stuff everyday so their inventory is usually fresh. They can get busy and the staff can get spread thin so you may have to do a lot of the searching solo if youre a back issue collector. Still one of the best comic and collectable shops in the Sacramento area.
This has to be the cleanest, most shopper friendly comic shop I have ever been in. Great selection, fair prices, and friendly staff (who helped me dig through boxes to find what I was looking for).
A-1 hes a huge assortment of comic books, manga, collectible statues, board games, and card games. Staff is super friendly. They help with what your looking for, new releases, or buy stuff from you. Everything is also easily accessible.
Nice place, large selection of comics and collectibles. The location was a little hard to get to. There were tables set up for board and card games, and the store was one of the largest Ive seen of its kind.
Very tight and cluttered. No game workshop stock other than citadel paints. Lots of dnd miniatures if you are looking. Tons of older figures if you dont mind paying a bit a premium.
This place seems to run out of magic the gathering stock on release dates. Thinking specifically of commander 2016. Game space is cramped compared to great Escape games or big brother comics. But, unlike those establishments it is walking distance. Its just okay.
Cool place. not as knowledgeable as other locations. Clean and easy to find stuff.
Really good store, big & roomy. Very nice selection on comics. Staff is very helpful & seems pretty knowledgeable. Im not into gaming, but seems to have a very nice gaming area. Very nice selection of collectables & miscellaneous stuff.
Great selection and prices and helpful staff
Amazing comic book store!! Great staff, the owner Brian is a friendly, great man and family friend. Been going there nearly as long as theyve existed, wouldnt go anywhere else.
Went in with my family, first time, looking for board games and some knowledge on the games they carried. Staff was awesome. Had no problem answering a lot of my questions and didnt make me feel weird for being new to this scene. Ill be back for sure.
Very attentive workers, all abiding to the new normal COVID-19 guidelines.Plethora of options for your comic books, collectibles, and TCGs. I will be returning to support our local game stores!
My husband loves the store he loves to get his comic books to inspire him because hes an artist and he likes to read the comic books and learn how to draw different characters which is pretty awesome to me hes an amazing artist and the store cell a lot of comics and great customer service as well
Highest priced shop in town. Charging $5 more on most variants vs other LCS and wall inventory is way off FMV. Will hold hot ticket books and claim no inventory and place those on eBay.If you dont know the value of your comics or collectables, dont sell them here. You will be sorely disappointed.
My son has been going to this place for years and never gets tired of it! He lives in Roseville now and closer to another comic book store, but he prefers to come over to this place again and again.
Amazing staff! Showed me where the stuff was, a lot of good comics with the first issue. Modeling kits were fun, just everything was pure happiness.
We need more places like this where people of nerd and pop culture can intermingle, hang out, play tabletop, and also possibly meet new friends in the process. Stellar service, amazing knowledgeable staff, and a wide selection of comics, cards, and pop decor. A-1 gets an A+ from this nerd! ^ w^b
I was able to find just the right gift for my grandson! Helpful staff, great service.
Lots of inventory, however did not have the items I had dropped in for. Endless casses with Magic the Gathering cards seems to be massively overstocked. Consolidate the Magic cards floor space inventory down a bit and bring in alternative trading collector cards like Marvel Masterpiece sets. Lots of cool stuff but still drove to Rocklin to Kens Comics where I found two complete 1993 Marvel trading card sets.
I love this place. Obviously they have the newest issues, but they also have a decent amount of old issues to choose from, as well as book volumes if you fall behind. There are lots of great action figures. The staff is friendly too.
Both the Roseville and Auburn Blvd. stores are great. Always pretty nice workers there and they have a lot of comics, trade paperbacks, and collectibles (that while fun to look at are too rich for my blood). Seems like everything is reasonably priced. Bonus: The Auburn Blvd. store has an old bank vault that now houses old back issues and stuff. Cool.
Art books, Frazzetta, Vallejo merch, lovely ladies, and nerd stuff. Its a good store for dorks like you. ;p
Its Christmas time and you dont stock Stan Lee anything? And your vault is locked in which you store your original artwork but you cant access it without a manager.....and the manager isnt there but he might be tomorrow on Christmas Eve. Dissapointed to say the least but on a positive note, there is wide selection of comics, figurines of all sizes, books and theme-related toys.
Unprofessional staff. Called and the phone rang 6 times before I got an answer. A little overpriced as not many shop here but still good prices. The employees here are the most fair when you trade in cards, they are sure to get you a great deal. Good selection of cards.
Good customer service and somewhat fair prices. But they all wear fake masks, mainly the foot ball owner. Treated us pretty badly.
Great selection of comics, new and old. Decent figurine and gunpla kits. Staff was friendly and attentive.
Ive been shopping here for years. Brian has always been a great guy to work with and has a staff that does out of its way to take care of the customers.
Everyone is great. Store is always clean and air conditioned, and everyone has personable friendly customer service. Im never disappointed coming here or to any A-1 location, especially during sales. :)
Great selection! New, old, artbooks, compilations, etc, they also have cards, models, and toys. really friendly employees, that give good advice. Cant really ask for more than that!
They have a vast collection of comics, past and present. The staff are very knowledgeable and courteous. Im definitely gonna continue to shop there.
This is a fantastic store! Quality product and owner and staff are incredibly nice and helpful. They also hold live auctions on Facebook, Friday nights and on Instagram on Wednesday nights.
Best place to go for all.collectibles, new shops in Roseville and Folsom. Staff and owners are the best, so hopeful to this disabled patron. Been an A-1 customer since mid 1992 and no plan to change.
I found the selection of comics on hand on par with every great comic shop I have ever visited. They had a great assortment of toys/statues/figurines as well as card gaming tables.
This store has a large selection of Mangas, TCGs, vintage toys, books, comics, statues and more.
Great Owner, who really goes out of the way for community events, like their recent free BBQ. This store has something a comic book, toy and memorabilia collector would want and for every family member of every age
Great staff, very friendly. Clean store. Well stocked. Variety of items. Something for everyone there!!
This place is big and they seem they have everything when it comes to comics and games. The staff is very helpful in helping you find what you need.
Huge selection of comics. Good-sixed collection of Table top RPG items and books. They participate in Free Cookbook day. And Best of all, the staff ate friendly and knowlegable.
Everyone is super friendly and they know exactly what theyre talking about. It was my first experience getting into competitive card playing and they made it very easy for me to join. Really good spot
I’m 15 and I’ve been going to this comic store when I was 5 months old and it hasn’t changed since, I love going here even if I don’t have money I will just browse and see what I want once I get my allowance. 5/5 stars Love this place
Nerds everywhere, look no further. This place has it all, except video games. They have tons of board games, d&d supplies, comic books, graphic novels, manga, magic the gathering yugioh, and more. This is my go-to location for board games, so it is definitely worth checking out.
For decades the A-1 Comics stores have been the best stores in the Sacramento area. Huge selection of comics, trades, back issues, cards & games.Sacramento location especially good for gold/silver age comics if thats your thing.
Good people, tons of figures and a wide variety of games available.
I came on a very busy day for this location on a Saturday. Once inside I realized that the Current Pokemon Go craze already was Alive or Resurged the Gaming Crowds as this Place truly Specializing in the Gaming community. Yes Comic books are Main business but thru the 25 years Ive shopped here (and the Madison/Manzanita previous location)the Role Playing Games and more Popular the Card Gamers [Majic,POKEMON, etc] have Switched interest of most CBook fans. If you Need, enjoy and Into Gaming this Is Your Store for most of your Gaming Needs.
I go there for Ron Lim variants. Never disappointed. Clean store and friendly staff.
Its pretty much my one stop shop for anything comics...the staff are very professional and friendly too.
Nice place and knowledgeable staff. Great place for comics, cards and collectables!
Big shop with a huge variety of both new and classic comic books and graphic novels. The display of the books and the collectables, together with the friendly atmosphere make the experience even better.
Cool store. Not my vibe but was fun to wander around.
Hella cool store to take your kids if there into comics or anima or if you yourself likes comics
So many comics. Great selection of new and rare books. Reduced priced sets section is super awesome. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.
Good magic selection but their other store seems to have more things in stock. Customer service outstanding though! Definitely the better of the two in the area!
Staff is friendly and helpful. The guy with the glasses Im not positive his name but he always looks out for me an lets me know when something I collect comes in. Great location.
Over priced cards and comics. The staff was not helpful at all. They will turn back on customers. I bought a manga book there along with 3 mtg cards. Costing me over 40 bucks and I didnt receive a thank you have a nice day.
A fun little comic book store. Mostly new comics. Lots of graphic novels. Not a lot of interesting back issues. If youre looking for contemporary comics, this is a great place. If youre looking for vintage, look elsewhere.
Organized, wide variety, attentive and friendly staff! They helped us ease the pain of a Comic Con-less summer.
It was top notch the owner was very nice and friendly. Prices were very low
Love this place. Cant wait to go back. Endless back issues. Had everything I was looking for. Thanks!
Very clean, spacious store. Plenty of selection for comics. Some figures and statues as well as an entire area dedicated to cards.
The girl there was super helpful as usual. Was looking for a birthday present for my brother and she helped me find their eBay page and told me how to figure out prior pricing for comics
Love this place good place for comics and a decent supply of Magic.
The best comic book stores in the Greater Sacramento area. Anything they dont have, theyll order, if its available. Great customer service!
It’s a great place to go and visit even if your just trying to look around and the people there seem like they love their job very good environment
Great staff and from what I see host community events.I wish they had more new manga on shelf. ;-;Maybe some A rated ones.
The staff here seem off in a world of there own . very distant from reality at this place. I would love to be able to say otherwise. It is all in your attitude and I do not contribute to negative behavior. Ill try back again one day (maybe).Once an avid reader of the comics .Derick E. Jaeggi
Its a great place to shop and play cards at, I recently started playing mtg there and its a very laid back environment and the employees and players are always so nice to be around
These guys are Amazing. Knowledgeable, funny and great personalities. Willing to help you with anything you need, and always active in the tcg market with drafts and things. Good times!
My son loves the variety comic books, posters, trading cards, games, and collectible statues.
Amazing customer service, had a bad book binding issue with my new book. One of the team members helped me get the same book asap in just 3 days, and he even called me to tell me it was in. Most retailers would have forgotten in my past experiences.
Very helpful knowledgeable staff there. Nice clean store. I would recommend this place
I love going there but money is funny. I went for the first time since maybe January of this year and was bothered not to see any of the regular employees who have been there for years
Friendly, detail oriented and very knowledgeable, great staff, great business, my go-to for cards and comics
Great store! Best service! Love this place. Good new and older products! Great variety.
My weekly comic book shop for the last few years with visits dating back to the Manzanita store. Friendly staff with an amazing amount of back issues.
I have been hearing about this place for months and finally stopped in. Great selection. The organization is good. Helpful staff and good prices. Totally going again.
Great selection of magic and other cards very helpful staff,, just a good shop
Best comic/tabletop gaming store in town. We drive all the way across town to go there, because theyll actually have what you need.
Nice place, they have funko pop. Comics. also they have dc, marvel, and anime figures. Pokemon, yugio and other cards. Plus more. 😂😂😂 I will be back for more Naruto figures and funko pop.
Very friendly staff, lots of cool stuff to look around at, tons of comics to sort threw
One of the best stores in Sacramento with huge selection of back issues and wall books at great prices.
More than 1000 comics at least 50 of what kind of comics you are looking for there is toys collectables
Great selection of board games, card games, and of course comics. Even if you arent sure exactly what you are after the staff are always able to recommend great stuff.
Said they pay cash, had to pay 10 dollar fee at the bank they gave me the check for, I asked to be rembursed and they refused. Thank you.
The store is awesome and the people are very friendly and helpful i would recommend buying from them
Friendly staff, quick to help or have a friendly conversation!
Ripped me good. I needed gas money to get home and the guy gave me $10 for $140at least worth of comics. Ill never go back.
Very friendly staff. Very excellent selection. Normally I prefer smaller stores but this A-1 was A-#1. Lol. The other one is ok. This one is better.
Best comic store ever !!
Been going here longer than the Roseville location. It is more cramped, but still has a great selection. Both locations are great with great staff running them.
Love it here! Great finds and all employees are very helpful! My sons & I love coming here
Great affordable new and used tires, also very cheap and quick tire patching. I was in and out in about 15 minutes!
Well located and love how they buy as much as well comics.
Always a helpful staff and a wide variety of old and new comics. Almost always a patio sale on most weekends with great deals
Great for comics and figures not so much table top games like DnD still worth going to
For your inner kid, or if you just love comics! They have other stuff as well like trying get cards and what have you... if you have never been check them out.
Takes forever to get waited on. I was in line yesterday and a person that the magazine buyer knew came in and he started waiting on him. Unbelievable!!
Great service. Huge stock. Lots and lots of treasures here!
Love this place!! The miniature selection is amazing and the staff is awesome.
Great selection of comic books new and old. Staff know there stuff and are more than willing to help you.
Excellent selection of comics and associated merchandise. Friendly and knowledgeable staff!!
Great stock of games and MTG in addition to comics. Usually have holiday sales that save quite a lot of money.
My favorite A-1 location! Staff is always helpful and friendly. Great selection of new issues and old favorites.
Awesome selection of comics and friendly staff.y favorite place to find new comics and check out new board games

2022-03-31I have not walked inside a comic book store in over 20 years so it was very nostalgic too take a few minutes to visit this one. The staff was very friendly and kept the books I was looking for up at the front counter. He also took extra time putting out a few different series to me on the shelves. The books were extremely well organized and he knew where everything was like an expert. I did have a good experience and I plan on returning. I also noticed that there was a designated area with tables to play card or table games.

2022-07-28Great place for all ages to come an see what they have, from comic books, action figures, to board games like Dungeons and Dragons to Pokemon. Helpful staff who are knowledgeable to help you. Plus you never know at times who will stop an greet you as I got to meet the original Hulk himself. Live aution about comic books an such are done from all over the world to bet livestream so come on down or call them, they may have the answers to your questions.

2022-09-16A-1 is simply the best comic shop in the area, they have something for everyone. From card games and figures to new comics and high priced keys; they have the greatest selection. The staff at A-1 is also top notch, extremely friendly and genuine people, I truly feel welcomed and appreciated every time I visit.

2022-06-28Not sure what it is about the employees at this location, but NOBODY ever greets me or acknowledges my presence whenever I come in. Nobody ever asks if I need help or asks what I’m looking for. There’s always like 6 to 9 employees standing around, too. I normally have to look around for 10-15 minutes, not find what I’m looking for, and then walk up to the counter and ask the person at the counter for help. And it’s funny because THAT PERSON who does end up helping me turns out to be super helpful and super friendly. In a time where people can easily download their comics online or order everything from amazon you’d think an old school comic book store would be appreciative to their customers that are supporting them and keeping them in business. I’d advise management to take a better approach to customer service and try to make customers feel welcomed and taken care of. If I wanted a “self service” experience I’d just download and order everything online.

2022-07-28Has a lot of cards and comics but not as many manga or figures as other stores. Employees are nice and the store feels very cozy and nice. Main entrance is not on Auburn and they close the gate on that side most days so entering is a hassle but the nearby light is kind.

2022-07-07Im sure the owner pays for fake reviews. I went there for the first time and they told me theyd only offer 40-50% of market value, even with store credit, they would only offer 50% of market value max. The worker said We have to pay our employees. I counted 9 employees (just standing around). Why do they need 9 employees here, is it a joke? They are scamming customers in order to pay unnecessary employees.

2022-03-19Always love walking into this place. You get greeted right away and there is lots of unique collectibles here besides comics. We come here twice a month and our son always finds something he loves. The staff are knowledgeable and history gurus of them all.

2022-04-20This location is the main Comic branch of the A1s, go to the others for more card game related things.Their Magic and Pokemon selections are great but the Yu-Gi-Oh is severely lacking compared to before the COVID times. I met Daryl there recently, hes working really hard to bring back yugioh into shape for this location!There is definitely something to look forward to in the coming times for all 3 main card games at this store location.
