When I found out a comic book store had opened in my neighbourhood, I immediately put my down my gourmet doughnut and introduced myself to the owner. First impression, Kirk is a super nice guy and a good dude.
When I downsized my action figure collection for store credit, Kirk was diligent and meticulous in researching their market value. When it came time for a counter-​offer, he was transparent, fair and considerate unlike my dealings with The Silver Snail.
Sure, the store sells more collectibles than actual comic books but who cares? Two words: ComiXology and iPad. Boom. More importantly, my New 52 Justice League and super-​sized Darkseid action figures look amazing in my office!

Key Features: many, many, unique toys and delightful nerd things.
So, you may not know that West End Comics exists, and that would be understandable, because the sign above the door reads «Chiropractor.» There are a few action figures in the window and that may catch you attention.
It caught mine, anyway.
Walking in, I saw a bunch of boxes of comics on the ground, but not many. As far as comic book stores go, this is less focused on comic books, and more on other toys. Like robots. Many robots. So many robots. Some robots existed on the walls, others walked around, opened their chest and shot light lasers.
And then there were the cuff-​links. United Federation of Planet cuff-​links, TIE fighter cuff-​links, R2D2 (4GB USB key) cuff links.
The prices are a little bit high, but the merch is top notch.
