The best comic shop around. Been going here since I was 12. Great service, great selection. Everything you want from an LCS.

The first time I walked into Captain Blue Hen was my first day of attending UD. I've been back (almost) monthly since to get my books. Joe has made this place one of the best comic book stores in the country. Over the decade+ that I've been a customer I've never had a negative experience in Captain Blue Hen. Between the Free Comic Book Day parties and the various holiday flea markets they are always on the look out to make comics an event. The selection of pop culture related odds and ends is always being added to, and the creator signings are always fun. They're always reaching out or letting me know about upcoming books I might be interested in. Cannot recommend this place enough.

We do if it something we need. Call or email the store for details on what we are looking for and how to bring them in. If you just stop by with a collection, the buyer may not be in. Thanks!

We mostly buy comics but there may be interest in something like that. You would need to see Paul who is there Sundays 12-5, Mondays 12-6, and Thursdays 2-8. You can call on one of those days to inquire. If he is interested, you of course would have to bring him in to the store to review condition.

Do you carry something called jawbreaker? My son requested a copy (?) for a present, I know nothing about comics, never been inside a store or read/bought them as a kid. (Sorry, that's just the way I was ....)

If they don't have it on hand they usually do their best to order it for you, but you may have a wait depending on how hard it is to find.
