Only complaint is the the lack of parking, other than that great store. Patrick runs a great shop there. Way to go. :)

I only come here for one thing, so I can't feel good giving it 5 stars without adequate knowledge about other products, but! That said, I love coming here.
When I come, it's to buy magic cards. It's worth making my way out here rather than just stopping in at walmart because I can save lots of money. Their prices are much cheaper than the big box stores, so I can get a lot more bang for my buck. But, it is inconvenient for me to head out here, so it's not some place I come often.
The real reason I'd like to give it five stars is the service. I've only ever been helped out by two people (maybe they only have two regulars employees, who knows), but they are both amazing. Super friendly, very helpful. They talk to you like you're a person, not a customer, and it's all very relaxed feeling.
I can't wait to come here again; I have a newfound love for tabletop gaming, and this is where I'm gonna spend my dough. -

I frequent this comic shop probably a little too often... I have always been able to find what I'm looking for with help from the staff who are always superb!

Quantum Frontier Games & Comics is a Fantastic Store! Opened in 2008, and even has parking at the rear of the building on Robie St.
First impressions are lasting here! When I first walked in, I was not sure what to expect, but staring me in the face was this HUGE replica of the Starship Enterprise, it lights up, I am sure Spock is in there somewhere.
The owner, Patrick McMerty, goes above and beyond for his customers.
While I was there, the customers that came in were all greeted by first names by him. He has a loyal customer base, and for good reason.
If you are a comic buff, Patrick will collect your comics as they come in, put them aside, so you just walk in, and presto, your comics are there for you. With this account, you can get a discount on all books (10%). You can pre-order items as well.
This store is filled with Games, board games, posters, action figures, card games, roleplaying games, books (Zombies seem to be big this year). You name it, he has it!
Now, I would think that a store like this is just for kids. Not So! The people walking in were adults, buying for themselves. It seems we are all still kids at heart.
There is a variety in the store, so there would be something for all age groups.
He also holds Magic Nights, D&D Tournaments, Munchkin Demo Day, and is even having a Special New Years Eve Event.
It is clear that this business has the heart and sole of Patrick in it. There are not too many of these stores around. Visit him, you will find something to peak your interest. Our Christmas list just got longer! -

Yesterday was my first time in the Quantum Frontier Games & Comics store as I took my niece and nephew up to a free comic day that I guess thappens on May 1st of each year nationally, good to know. Free comics for all to enjoy. Well yes of course there are limits but wow what a great idea to prompt your business and get your name out there.
Quantum is not a big store inside but wow does it have a lot of stuff. And when I mean stuff I mean comics of course that line the walls and games, cloths mostly T Shirts and game cards just to mention a few things. I never really imagined bigger people going to these stores but yesterday proved me wrong, there is a market for this stuff.
Anything from Superman to Batman to even my hero Wonderwoman it was there. What a neat store with friendly staff that know their customers.
