OMG, I love this place. Everyone working there, everyone playing there, everyone just hanging out there is an absolute DELIGHT! Its exactly what a local comic shop should be. Everyone participated in searching for our game, making it a fun community experience. They had the expansion packs we wanted, and pretty dice, AND they gave us a discount because its game night! YAY, AVALON!

Always been a big fan of the place, and the owner Jon is a great guy. Always gets my comics on time and in perfect condition, super professional people. Also has some great tables for running board games or D&D night!

Great conversation with the owner. Exceptional knowledge of different genres of comics as well as the state of the industry.Location is hard to see as they dont have an signage above the retail location. Worth the trip if you know what you are looking for.

Awesome place to get comics. Staff is superb and knows their stuff. Its a quiet, kind atmosphere in there. They also got whatever comic you need that is currently available or they can order it for you.

I wanted to learn to play MTG. I have a store located near me, but was very much out of place with all the expert players, even with an open house event designed to learn the game. I reached out to a friend who suggested Avalon Comics & Games. I sent an email and put in a request for a green deck to learn. The owner responded and even offered the open house deck too, so that I could get familiar with all the types of cards. I placed my order and was very happy to find the fastest shipping from any place Ive ordered in the past. I expected it to be a few days at least. I fully recommend giving them a call/order online or even stop by if you are in the area. Thank you again!

Positive experience! Cover prices even though from past issues (usually higher). Knowledgeable and helpful staff (John). Highly recommended!

Great, friendly place. They host weekly events (tabletop role-playing on Fridays, board game nights on Saturdays) and are always happy to let people use their space and tables, either formally or informally. Good selection, with vintage finds coming in pretty regularly, and very easy to work with to order anything they might not have in stock.

I always get personalized service there. Jon understands my taste in comics and routinely suggests new titles that I always end up falling in love with. 10/10 Would buy again. And again. And again.

Best comic book store ever! Nearly nonexistent markups, amazing selection, and just the best staff and clientele! Be sure to go to the d&d nights!

This comic store Ive found to be one of the best in the area and has a large selection of comics to chose from and can always order the ones you would want. They have open tables to place games at and have quite a few game nights to hang out with fellow people that enjoy playing pen and paper games or board games.

Customer service was mediocre at best. The lady at the counter was rude and obviously didnt want to be there. Participated in dominaria prerelease, anyone below 4th place got 0 packs, even if they finished 3-1. Yet they clearly had enough product because i saw customers picking up booster boxes. Wont be returning any time soon.
