This is by far the best comic book store in Pittsburgh, if not one of the best comic book stores in the country. I've been to shops from NYC to LA to San Fran to Phoenix to Tampa Bay to Nashville to Chicago... and beyond! Phantom has some of the most thoughtful and comprehensive customer service, not to mention an excellent selection and awesome layout (BTW, the 406 S Craig address here is now wrong -- they moved across the street to 411 S Craig (still on the second floor, though). Anyway, I read another review of Phantom here on judy's book, and absolutely can't believe it -- there's nothing creepy or strange about Phantom. There's nobody there pressuring you to buy anything, and the store clerks are very helpful if you don't know much about comics but still want to pick something up. Overall, the Phantom comics shopping experience can't be beat in Pittsburgh. This shop is the best of the best, whether you're a weekly Wednesday comics reader , a lapsed fan, or someone new to the medium.
