Your A-List: Best Comics Store

You don’t have to be a comics nerd to recognize that Capstone Comics is doing a good job of keeping Austin entertained, as evidenced by their second consecutive win in the Your A-List poll.

Whether you’re looking for Marvel, DC, Image, Capstone, which got 69 percent of the votes, has it all. And not just the new stuff. Capstone, located on Parmer Lane, has a nice collection of Silver Age comics, in addition to more recent stuff such as bobbleheads, posters and apparel.

The store also features a nice back-issue selection, and they care about their graphic novels, as all new issues come bagged and boarded. And apparently, despite these tough economic times, Capstone is doing something right to stay afloat, as you can even spot the occasional Capstone TV commercial.

Capstone Comics [site] 2121 W. Parmer Lane, Suite 107 339-4251
