Wow, awesome comic book selection and loads of vintage figs NIB and loose. They have lots of Star Wars as well as GI Joe, Transformers and TMNT. In the back they have cards and sports merch.This store is really fun to walk through and take in. It's overflowing with nostalgia.

Love this place! They literally have something for everyone. The staff is absolutely amazing, they are so helpful and really know their stuff! We also helped with free comic book day and had a wonderful time and got some good comics! If your looking for pops! They got them! Looking for baseball cards or other sports cards they got them too! Saw a Rick and Morty d&d book. The list goes on and on!

This is a wonderful long time Waco comic book store with an excellent staff! They are very good at recommendations, and can special order you almost anything that you're looking for. Everybody needs to support their local comic book store!

Nice shop with lots of knowledgeable associates to answer questions, and surprisingly, I sold a few cards and didn't leave feeling like I'd been hustled like most other shops that buy cards from collectors like myself. That in itself is saying alot. Good selection of single packs and boxes too of all sports.

Good selection on cards but I bought 2 booster boxes. I thought the shrink wrap on the box looked funny but I wasn’t sure, didn’t look factory sealed at all. Upon further review, the bottom of the packs were either half opened or they opened way too easy. So I know they were resealed and there wasn’t a single good card in 2 booster boxes (72 packs). $315 down the drain.

It's was amazing! Took my 6 and 10 year old to buy their first official comic book. There was a great selection. Very cool place to stop and look around. My youngest loved to Star Wars statues. He even had me take his pic with them!

Huge selection of sports cards but with the ridiculous high prices they should have a lot of cards. Probably the most overpriced shop I have visited. Not sure if they really want to sell singles.Decided to stop in and see if the prices had been adjusted since the market is no longer in “flux”. This place is still extremely overpriced. When you’re asking $400 for 2007 Topps black Kevin Durant ($17 on eBay)and $100 ($12 on eBay)for the same card in the white version you should probably just stop trying to sell cards. I’m sure I won’t be back.

I want more than anything to give this place 5 stars because it's the only LCS in Waco. The staff is friendly, the place is cool, but the prices are INSANE. All of the back issue comics are tagged with 2021 prices (which was a huge comic bubble that has burst), so you can't really hunt for anything in the store because you can get it for half the price online most of the time. If they could get the prices under control and up to date then I would be in there every single day. I hope it changes.

Really the only comic shop around Waco, but it's a really great one! Comics, collectables, gaming next door at kings landing and sports memorabilia and trading cards.

Very disappointed and very likely will not return for business. In the past great service, but when I asked and they maked me in their book to hold a simple booster box of scarlet and violet. I never recieved a call, so two weeks pass and I walk into the store and ask about it I get a blank stare and get told that "ya we really haven't gotten anything" as an answer. Not here let me look that I wrote you in, sorry I didn't call or anything to that nature. So I walked back yo my car and ordered a box on Amazon which will be here in four days. With attitudes and service like this, I see why shops are closing. I enjoy going to a shop and having items available but with no availability and attitudes, I would rather it be delivered to me.

always a very clean atmosphere with nice employees who are extremely helpful! If they happen to not have exactly what you're looking for, they offer multiple options of ordering it for you.

My wife and I visited today and it was a great experience! The store was laid out great and merchandised very nice. Large selection of vintage and modern. From comics to action figures to trading cards they had a bit of everything. Everyone was very friendly and the store was neat and clean. Highly recommended!

Been going there since I was young. And now I'm sharing that experience with my son. Love the atmosphere and the staff. It's the one place I truly can be a nerd and be comfortable, My secret identity is playing the cool & popular guy. There I'm just plain me. BANKSTON'S is my forever comic book store.
