What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Cosmic Comics is widely praised for its exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable staff, creating a welcoming atmosphere for all visitors. Customers love the great prices and the wide variety of comics, manga, and pop culture merchandise, especially the exciting blind boxes. However, a few reviews have noted disappointment with the quality of some T-shirts.
"Fantastic experience today :) The store clerk (I'm sorry I didn't think to ask his name) was one of the friendliest I've ever met. I was in there for at least an hour, and he didn't forget about me. He also gave me a recommendation based on my tastes. Give that man a raise. (Will add a Pic so he knows who I am)"

"I just wanted to express how disappointed I am with the quality of their T-Shirts. I had so much faith in their merch and went to their shop at Northgate Shopping Centre and bought 8 of them(My bad after the bad experience).
When I was buying, I asked the shop attendants if the Tees would bleed when being washed (the colour coming out) and I was told the quality was impeccable. Boy was I let down :(
Even the quality is really bad…they are all see-through and the material is really cheap. Please do not practice false advertising saying your T-Shirts have good quality, because they don't. I wish I could go and get a refund. Very disappointing indeed :("
