Bizarro-Wuxtry Comics & Stuff

IF YOU CAN STAND THE DUST AND DIRT…
My husband and I love to go into comic stores and see what’s up. This store is decidely old school because of the old building and the way everything is organized. They have a huge collection of comics and unique items like those original plastic Halloween masks, action figures and copies of Mad Magazine. I loved the NPR podcast that was being broad cast. It was a nice touch. I prefer dialogue to music much of the time and this was probably the perfect choice for this store.
This probably would have been a better walk down «Memory Lane» had the place not been so dusty and just trashy in certain areas. I believe that areas accessed by the public should be neat and clean. If they are not for the public to see or access, keep the doors closed. I found myself coughing and just being distracted by dust and dirt which is just not my thing. For the avid collector this may be a non-​issue but for me it was a problem.
Cool store but definitely needs attention.

Piles of unorganized bric-​à-​brac lie among alphabetically sorted comics of all variety. This place is both an impressively broad and well stocked comic store and a bizarre graveyard for niche merchandise. There is a small selection of zines, but Bizarro-Wuxtry’s emphasis stands firmly in traditional comics and books.
That said, the store doesn’t have to look like an abandoned Pripyat library. If someone were to take two days and clean up all the heaps and mounds of flotsam, put doors over the staff-​only areas and maybe do some vacuuming… Is that too much of a task?

There is quite a selection here. Rummaging the rooms you can find your staples and indie comics.
I’m mostly impressed by the amount of mini comics and zines. I rarely ever see them in stores. Mostly full fledged stuff. I get that Fluke is located in Athens so that might have something to do with it. Really cool. :)
Primarily composed of comics, sketchbooks, and art books… they do have a small selection of figures and various other collectibles in a far back room. A lot of this place is really messy though. A good portion of the back is just boxes falling into the store seamlessly.
Clutter aside, it’s a great stop in for comics in Athens.
