Austin's ONLY Discount Comics Super-Store! is OPEN five days a week!!
If you've been to the main store, you can appreciate that when we say we have a lot of stuff - we mean TONS. Toss in the facts that we're always buying collections and trying out new product lines, and even 6,000 square feet doesn't feel like enough space. So September 2010, we opened the Austin Books Discount Store just down the street. We started calling it the Sidekick Store, and artist Paul Maybury even designed a Sidekick Girl to go along with it!
After a couple of moves, we're now located at 5000 N. Lamar in the Austin Fandom Center - the same complex as Austin Books & Comics, Guzu Gallery, and Outlaw Moon Games & Toys!
At the Sidekick, you'll find thousands of graphic novels and collections for HALF-OFF. Marvel, DC, Indie... lots of great books that we ordered heavily on. We also have hundreds of complete comic series, story-arcs and sets priced to save!
Also discounted is an assortment of action figures, plushes, T-shirts, statues, and merchandise.
But our favorite part is the rows and rows of long boxes full of DOLLAR COMICS! We refresh the boxes every week or so with comics from the 1960s to the present!
We've also added boxes of flat-rate priced Bronze Age and Silver Age Comics, and boxes upon boxes of Modern Age variant covers.
Stop in any (or every!) week (Wed - Sun) for ridiculously cheap and awesome comics! Complete your collection or get a great start on a new one!
