Comic book store
"Best comic store around! Great selection of back issues, toys, games, cards, posters, statues, heroclix, etc"
"Looks like all these good reviews must be from the owners themselves because when I walked in there they did not welcome me all I noticed was the owners spying on me like I was going to steal while they played with their pup around the store"
"One of the cool places in Mississauga"
"I have been in and out of here, as life comes and goes, and Doug & Dave have always kept it real"
"I had to do curbside pick-up"
Best comic store around! Great selection of back issues, toys, games, cards, posters, statues, heroclix, etc. They always get ample amounts of new issues every wednesday. The owners are great and a pleasure to buy from. Pricing is very reasonable, unlike most comic shops I've been to. Best place around to get your comics! Excelsior!
Looks like all these good reviews must be from the owners themselves because when I walked in there they did not welcome me all I noticed was the owners spying on me like I was going to steal while they played with their pup around the store. It is either that they have no manners or are simply racist.
One of the cool places in Mississauga. From comics to action figures to anime they got em here. Staff are very nice and friendly wont let you feel like your pressured or eyes on you when your inside the shop. They will let you look around for free. But due to COVID they only do curb side pick up only.
I have been in and out of here, as life comes and goes, and Doug & Dave have always kept it real. They keep me coming back for the gems they hold and the appropriate prices they offer. If you want to let your inner child geek out a little, you have to check out this gem of a hidden treasure.
I had to do curbside pick-up. The owner of the store was very nice and accomadating. I purchased a Wolverine action figure. I am sure there is lots to see in the store. Hopefully when the lockdown is over customers will flock there and the vibrant comic book store energy will return :-)
Best comic shop around. Great layout, selection and staff. Tons of back issues and rarities to sort through. Give yourself at least a half hour to an hour to go through this treasure trove. Afterwards check out Kravingz across the street for the best burger you'll ever have.
Was with a couple of friends and we decided to stop by at this comic store to look and potentially purchase some comics. I was browsing though some comics and accidentally dropped one and the store owner comes says, “If you damage it, you’re buying it” like tf.
Though its moved locations a few times, this place has been around for more than thirty years, no small feat for a small business comic shop. Lots of great memories of playing Double Dragon in the Eighties, then getting my MtG fixes in the mid Nineties.
I live out of town and only get to go to Altered States once or twice a year. That being said I have never been disappointed. They have a good selection of comics and action figures. I can always find something that I'm looking to add to my
Was here and bought a couple things. They have a sizeable selection comics, action figures etc. Some of the complaints seem to be far fetched or exaggerated I think. The owner has a reading chair set up in the new comics section. If he was
This is a great comic book store in the area. Each of the staff member is very helpful and calm and composed. They have a great knowledge of the books and stock and never try to give a cold shoulder to anyone they really try to help if you
Dave and Doug are longtime comic book guys who know their trade and run what I would call a traditional comic shop. They have a huge selection of current titles, a massive trove of back issues, and they have all the extras one would expect
As I am new to comic collecting I love walking in and asking about new comics to collect. The owners always goes out of his way to make sure he answers all my questions. If he has a guest at his counter he will come back and see if I need
I grew up in the neighborhood and used to go to this shop all the time for comics when I was a kid. I don't live there anymore but still return to visit from time to time because Dave and Doug continue to be the best with their knowledge,
Great store. It looks a bit old and stuffy on the inside, they could use a bit of renovating. Otherwise, their comic inventory is huge. They have a large selection of comics, TPBs and Hardcovers from a wide array of publishers. They have
Lots of comics is an understatement.. they have a ton of movie and comic related models/statues and "toys" .. no matter who is behind the counter they are always friendly and leave you to look around and always happy to answer questions.
If your looking for sports cards this is the place to be!!! They had a magnificent selection of different sports (e.g. Hockey, Baseball, Football, BasketBall, Wrestleing) and that includes different packs (tops Chrome, tops, opeache,
The only negative or downside is that they throw none of their own events. They merely participate in FCBD, which ubiquitously goes without saying, plus Batman Day, Halloween observed earlier, and perhaps Father's Day - that's all.
The selection is vast, and who I believe is the owner, is very friendly, and has everything very well organized! I ask him for a series and the issue, he goes over to the cabinet and quickly finds the issue you're looking for.
This comic shop has the largest and longest new arrivals rack I have ever seen. It stretches the length of the store. They also have a decent back catalog. Store sign is a little hard to see as it is inside the store window.
My kid calls this top mortgages, hilarious. You would think someone comes in they would be happy for a potential sale, not this place they really make you feel like you are interrupting their day. What we do for our kids
The amount of times I have been to this place... it is a lot. Maybe my fave comic book store in the GTA. The staff are super friendly, I've found books that aren't readily available here. Big collection of comics,
So happy with finding the comic books I was looking for all over Toronto! Service was awesome! The guy working there was very nice and helpful! Everytime I cme to Toronto I will from now on stop by!
A fine comic store that has graphic novels, weekly releases, figures and toys as well as enormous drawers that contain back issues (not much manga though). A really great place to visit and shop.
Place has the largest collection of comics and collectibles. The state of comics as well as the collectibles are top notch. The store also has a huge array of Funko pops and trading cards.
Low key, quiet location. Excellent selection of back issues, trades and collectibles. Didn't see a lot of high price back issues, but didn't ask either. The boys know their stuff.
Moved into the area and thought about getting back into comics. Very warm and accommodating store atmosphere. Great selection, great owners, happy to support local businesses.
These guys are great people, offer excellent service. They are honest as you could hope for and are willing to help you get the comic, card, or collectibles you are seeking.
I have been buying items from Altered States since they opened! The two owners (brothers) are super nice and super knowledgeable about their products! Hockey cards too!
I live in Oakville and I've been coming here for over 3 years at this point now. It's what I consider my main LCS. I preorder all my books through Altered State.
I have been buying from here since 1987, great shop! owners are amazing and always fun hanging out their and making friends. Highly recommend checking it out!
Very friendly and awsome owners!! Huge selection and such an amazing old school vibe. I will definitely be picking up all my goodies from them.
Love this place! My son gets all his marvel comics here, the guy is super nice and very helpful. Their selection of comics is huge.
Comic and card place with lots of other stuff.... They have been around a long time and offer great customer service
No hello as I walked in with no customers around so it's not like store owner was busy with other customers.
The store has so much to offer, especially hard to find Toys and figures. Great selection of back issues.
Accompanied my son who was looking for a comic I toured their figurines and models. Very cool place
Awesome selection of comics there. The guy working there is very helpful also. Super nice.
My home town comic book store. Very organized, great staff, great location.
great store, always feel welcomed going their!
