Best Comic book store in Canada

J	Jonathan Welsh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great selection of books and a friendly owner. My only gripe is that overpaid big time for some books. Some of his prices are kinda absurd. Fresh into the comic scene, and by not doing my research, I paid $60 for a Venom: Lethal Protector #1. The next day at my other shop, I got the book for $20 and realized my ignorance. Just make sure you look into the price of the book before you purchase it.
D	David Dorward on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great back issues destination! At 67, very soon to be 68, I am not interested in the new stuff. The owner has a great knowledge of old issues & pop culture. The owner is very personable. Support this shop or it will disappear with the disappearance of new comics with Diamond Distributors going into "lockdown".
m	mrwasi99 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's a comic book store! Has a big selection of back issues, my only gripe is that the back issues are overpriced. Items that I can find in the $2 bin at Big B Comics are selling for $9+ here. It's fine I guess if you're looking for that 1 issue to finish off a collection but don't go expecting to save a few bucks if you buy a bundle of comics.
B	Brent Wilde on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2nd time visiting. Slowly becoming one of my favorite shops west of GTA. Always something to buy and the owner is great to talk with about comic books.
M	Matt S on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this place because of the closet-like feel it has; jam-packed with all kinds of gems, new and old. Aardvark has a great overall selection of mostly silver to modern-age stuff, however the books are very overpriced. Comic books, like other collectibles, hold value when people are seeking them and when availability is limited. Much of the inventory at aardvark is by no means rare or unattainable, with the exception of an arm-full of graded comics, autographed books and prints, and other random oddities. That said, the pricing and the expectations of the consumer to pay these prices, especially during current economic times, is unrealistic. Although the place is a small indie shop that needs the business, you still have to consider other people’s wallets. The fact that comics are, again, only worth what people are willing to pay should allow for more Flexibility on pricing and a more accurate target price to begin with. I’ll definitely be returning, but only when I’m looking for something really special when money is not an option. Good luck and take care!
B	Bar S on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good location to get older comics, original art and also an introduction into grading and comic history. Update: in addition to a great selection, the owner is friendly and knowledgeable along with his family.
D	Danielle on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Found amazing classics here ! The owner was very knowledgeable and you can tell he loves what he does. Very nice store.
A	Antonio Cimino on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This store has a huge collection of old and new back issues even though from the outside it looks deceiving. Main downside is the prices for most issues are overpriced. Some comics that I own I was able to find for cheaper elsewhere. But for issues you've been searching for you might get lucky here. Still worth a trip if you get the chance!
