icp004 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I’m traveling to Charlotte, NC for the weekend. Any recommendations on shops that have a good selection of back issues from the 70’s and 80’s? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadripoorNights Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I used to travel to NC for work, and my favorite shop nearby was actually Dave's Comics in SC on the border, but I believe it's closed now. Heroes Aren't Hard to Find is a good, larger shop in Charlotte with a lot of older keys. They ask top dollar for most of them so you're unlikely to find a steal on the wall, though I've been able to buy some out of the back issue bins. They put on HeroesCon. Rebel Base is a smaller shop in a dumpy little shopping center with a lot of toys and more esoteric variety. A. Pennyworth's was a shop that was always on my list to visit, but I don't think I was ever able to. icp004 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Professor Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 If you have time hit these two shops http://www.pbkwcomics.com/ North of Charlotte, great selection of books. His prices are super fair. Matt is a great guy. https://www.nikelspot.com/ South of Charlotte in Fort Mill South Carolina. Again good selection and very fair prices. icp004 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icp004 Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 I made it to two of the three suggested. Heroes Aren’t Hard to Find was a cool shop and very close to where I stayed. Nickel Spot was about a 20 minute drive but well worth it. I really liked their selection and prices were reasonable. Picked up a few items. Thanks for the suggestions!
