I don't know of any good shops there for what you are looking for, though I am sure there is someone here who would disagree with me. You can hop on the metro in D.C. to the Wheaton stop and head on to Barbarian Books. They have Golden - modern there though I am not sure how the prices are. I always remembered them to be fair. The DC area is the worst area in the country for back issue comics. The only real store in the entire DC metro area that will have what you're looking for is Victory Comics in Falls Church. If you want to take a ride up to the Baltimore area, go to Cards, Comics, and Collectibles in Reisterstown, MD, which will have everything you're looking for. Of course, you could just come to my house - I have more comics than 75% of all comic stores in the country. When will you be in the DC area?

1Cool Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I’ve been to both several times and there is literally nothing better about Detroit compared to Chicago. A couple things about Detroit May be cooler then Cleveland but that is not saying much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The west coast is going to be a trip on its own. The original plan was to drive from Los Angeles to Seattle, then a train across to Chicago. But that meant losing days in the east. Cheers!

You have to see their Vault. Cosmic Comics - largest store in the city, good selection - prices also a bit high Alternate Reality - closest to the strip, not a large selection of back issues, but, some decent deals can be found there Any chance of finding Bronze Age mags in any of these places?

The Beach Boys are my favorite band and I've always loved the part from the song "California Girls": "I been all around this great big worldAnd I seen all kinds of girlsYeah, but I couldn't wait to get back in the StatesBack to the cutest girls in the world" That said, I've never seen such a stunning array of beautiful women as when I go to Vegas pool parties. It gets expensive though (the cover and drinks I mean). My small town of about 20,000 residents is completely overrun with Instagram models right now due to Coachella. Like infrastructure problems because of the sheer number of hot women. oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
