Fantom Comics

Such a great store! I love that they have so many comics and my favorite manga by Junji Ito. Their collection of blind box figures is also awesome. I really love this place!

I come here all the time and I am always met with warm welcomes and suggestions for comics and manga to try. There's always such a wide variety of series, comics, and manga to read. Truly such a kind vibe and atmosphere. The decorations and artwork around the store is just exquisite! Thank you for being the best comic store in DC. (in my opinion)

A bit overly hip indy comic shop, definitely geared toward college students and alt-outsiders. A decent new release wall and a good selection of indy and small press fare with the requesite Manga and LBGTQ+ inventory. I found no back issues, and tattoos being done in a corner. Lots of adorable in-group tweens hanging out, but I found the palpable sense that outsiders were not welcome off-putting. No greeting, no acknowledgement, and the only words spoken to me were "Is that everything?" at checkout. Not a bad shop, but maybe not the first pick for a middle-aged comic book fan.

went here back in 2020. was an amazing experience witnessing a bonafide comic book store, since my country (Republic of Moldova) didn't have any at that time or book stores that sold comic books (things have changed since then). I understand I was probably being a bother, yapping to the shopkeep about how excited I am to be here and where I'm from and such, I know you guys are there to help people find and buy comics, not entertain tourists witnessing something that's all too familiar to you, but this is still a core memory of mine from my trip to DC.

Nice shop with a great selection of current comics and graphic novels. Some nice displays and thoughtful art on the walls. Not a back issue store, per se, they had recent issues, and a solar box, but ample to enjoy and find, excellent selection for kids. Friendly staff for sure.
