I cannot imagine there are many comic stores like they were when I was a kid around. You know, the cluttered stores with long boxes everywhere, the new comics racks where the only part of the store that had any organization; statues, figures, cards, and back issues everywhere. Run by some guy that comparing them to Comic Book Guy would actually be disservice to the Simpsons character.

I seem to find them everywhere.

Except for the Comic Book Guy -like owner, I've had good luck with having nothing but nice people sell me stuff.

But I don't understand that store layout, where the back issue longboxes are in the middle of the store, and the current issues and TPBs are pushed to the walls. That's a lot of valuable space for something that (I assume) only a minority of the hobby cares for. Yet I still see it all the time.
