The characters portrayed in Marvel and DC are among the best known fictional characters in the world. Its impossible in a single store to do justice to the all characters and all the stories created by these companies over the years but Retro Rare certainly tries. This is by far my favorite comic book store in Mississauga and one of our regular haunts every Saturday afternoon. To be fair RetroRare isn't just a comic store it's much much more. Weather your a fan of Comics, Music, Sport Memorabilia, Statues, or Action figures this store definitely has something for you. There also an impressive collection of new and vintage toys to choose as well a wide variety of collector cards including Hockey, Baseball and Magic the Gathering to name just a few.... If you are in the Toronto area, you need to check out this store.
Retro Rare not only nice an extensive collection of Marvel and DC titles, but also carries a great assortment of independent titles as well.
Many of the recent back issue titles remain at cover price long after the new issue has come and gone which is really convenient for those that don't have a chance to make it to the comic story every week.
A large portion of the back half of the story is dedicated to Sport and Music memorabilia, so if comics aren't your thing there are plenty of other collectables to choose from. A few months ago we picked up a vintage 1960s Woodstock concert ticket form a friend of our, a real treasure for any music fan.
Retro Rare has an excellent selection of graphic novels and really great prices for not only Marvel and DC but the independents as well.
The selection of both new and back catalog toys as well as vintage toys is very impressive. Hard to find items can often be found at Retro Rare.
The selection of marvel and DC toys is off the charts, but if you don't see what your looking for, ask. Often it can be ordered in for you.
Definitely a great placed to shop if your a Beatles fan, many rare and unique items to choose from.
If Gold, Silver and Bronze Age books are your thing then this is the store for you and the prices are excellent.
Retro Rare is also a great place to get storage boxes and binders for you Hockey, Baseball and other collectable cards, Top Loaders for you Comics and Magazines. Acid Free bags both polypropylene and Mylar. I myself like the E. Gerber Mylites 2 protective sleeves which they always seem to have in stock.
