Galaxy Collectibles (Park Slope)
Galaxy Collectibles is an unpolished gem with a neighborhood feel. There’s a huge assortment of comic– and movie-related toys and collectibles, including lots of delightfully kitschy items from the movies, TV shows, and comics of your youth. Most of the walls, of course, are covered with books and comics. Keep an eye out for their great sales to pick up comics on the cheap.
