The Supernatural, Sci-Fi, Superhero Shop

The Comic Monstore is Rowan County’s premier destination for comic books, games and toys.  Since 2003, The Comic Monstore has catered to fans of super heroes, fantasy, science-fiction and horror.  While the store has a wide variety of collectibles for kids of all ages, it has also become a gathering place for gamers.  Weekly events usually include Magic: The Gathering, Dungeons & Dragons, Disney’s Lorcana TCG, Riftbound: League of Legends TCG, Star Wars Unlimited TCG, Pathfinder RPG, and a variety of other card games and board games.

The Comic Monstore opened in May of 2003.  Conveniently located near exit 75, off of I-85, the shop is easy to locate.  The store is owned by Ray & Karen Franks, and the store manager is Shane Peoples.  If you are hungry, we are near several locations for food including Massimo’s Sandwich Shop, Culver’s, Wendy’s, Casa Grande Mexican Restaurant, and Ichiban’s Japanese Steakhouse.


Danielle “Dani” Moonstar is a Native America mutant that first appeared in The New Mutants back in 1982 and she’s finally getting her own mini-series. When an ancient, soul-sucking weapon is set loose, it’s up to Dani to track it down! But the weapon’s deadly wielder won’t make it easy for her. After recent tragedies, can Dani trust herself to save those closest to her? Or will her self-doubts lead to even more bloodshed? Pick up the first issue of Moonstar this week at Comic Monstore or other fine comic book shops.

On Saturday, we’re offering a beginner’s sewing class. Learn to sew a fabric bowl that can be used as a bowl cozy, a dice tray, or a trinket bowl. No experience necessary. There will be geeky and non-geeky fabrics to choose from.  All materials will be provided. $25 per person. If $25 is too much of an inconvenience right now, come anyway. We’ll cover it for you.
