this is my business

Comics & More is a great place to get your comics, cards, action figures, and general pop culture fix. Open since 1992, we pride ourselves on being a family friendly environment with a diverse clientele. We host gaming nights for the kids, as well as adults. Friday nights you can come on out and play some Magic the Gathering, or Star Wars miniatures. Saturdays we have open play for Dungeons & Dragons miniatures. And Wednesdays (new comic day) are always a blast here as you never know who you will run into or what the topic of conversation will be. You might run into Rob Worley, comic creator (Advent Rising, Young ancient one, Brian Yuzna's Horrorama) and writer of young reader series Heir to Fire; Or Mike Ortiz, creative director for film distributor Anchor Bay; How about Ryan Kalusney, author of the novel, & Guest. Wait, who's that excitable fellow near the front door, feverishly flipping the pages of this week's books, pointing out the cover of the week and asking the serious questions about who would win in a fight between Superman in the new suit or in the 1930s suit? Well, that's our store mascot, Chuck. Don't forget to say hello.

There is no comic book shop in Michigan that makes you feel more at home than Comics and More in Madison Heights. For 15 years previous owner Tom Schriver ran a comic shop that provided a perfect balance of not only providing its club members with the best in comics and graphic novels, but also running Magic, Yugi-oh, and other gaming tournaments for all age groups. Last year Tom turned over the shop to current owner Chris Brown, who continues to provide club members, gamers and walk-in customers with outstanding products and services. If you find an unusual toy or collectible in the pages of Previews, Chris will order it for you. If you need an obscure Indie title, Chris will make sure it's in your membership box waiting for you. Need an example of great customer service that you won't see at other shops? When a recent issue of Wolverine was released with a special variant cover celebrating the classic EC Horror Comics of the 1950's, most shops were selling this variant edition for $10-20. When Chris had an opportunity to snag a stack of extra copies from his distributor, he made them available to any customer who wanted one, not for $10 or even $5, but at cover price !

With Chris Brown's background in marketing and advertising, he has done an incredible job of increasing his customer base over the past year through tv commercials, internet presence, in-store promotions, and even a recent store review in the pages of Comics Buyer's Guide.

In addition, Chris has expanded the scope of Comics and More with his many movie and entertainment connections, providing customers with "extras" such as raffles for free movie tickets to blockbusters like the Dark Knight, or freebies from major comic conventions. During this year's Free Comic Book Day celebration, no shop in the area was more packed with people, as Chris featured local artists, free comics, buttons, posters and even an appearance by Supergirl. My 4 year old son even received an Iron Man Mask and Repulsor Ray toy set just for being the first kid to show up in costume.

If you're looking for a comic shop that has the product you need, that places the customer first, and provides a haven for great comic, gaming and movie discussions with fellow collectors, then Comics and More is the place for you!
