Bergen Street Comics: Your Friendly Neighborhood Comic Shop in Brooklyn

Posted on March 21, 2009 by

Bergenstcomics
Swifty and I stopped by a new comic book shop in the 'hood — Bergen Street Comics on Bergen Street near Flatbush Avenue.  We're pretty excited about having a comic shop within walking distance of our apartment.  But beyond the convenience, it's seems like a cool local business run by a couple that clearly just loves comics. 

The store has a boutique-y feel with polished dark wood, lots of space to browse the shelves, and a few latest issues on a big table in the middle of the floor.  The proprietors are super-friendly and have clearly put a lot of thought into how to organize their somewhat limited stock (as of now.)  I like seeing graphic novels by genre, not publisher, which is almost meaningless to me.  And there are almost no toys, tee-shirts or DVDs to distract you from the pure comic goodness.  Reminds me of Rocket Ship in Cobble Hill, but more spacious.

You can follow their adventures in running a comic shop on their Twitter feed.
