The Comic Book Shop opened 1 July 1988 in a 640sf location two blocks from our current store. We moved 3 doors down in the same strip mall a couple of years later which increased our size to 1,400sf. In 2000 we moved a block away to a 3,600sf spot where we stayed for 4 years.
While the main store perculated along through the Batman movies and pogs and a brief stint in baseball cards, we had stores in North Spokane and in Spokane valley operating from 1989 through 1998. We also had a warehouse that was open to the public with a back issue selection that by its end had reached almost 500,000 back issue comics.
In 2006 we opened a small store in Northtown Mall to see how our version of a comic book store would work in a mall setting. It worked.
