We were in Vegas for a mini vacation and went to Alternate Reality Comics because of the rave reviews here on yelp. We were not disappointed.
This is one of the coolest comic book stores I have been to. Talk about lots of independent comics. I picked up a true gem of a comic called "The Pro" (Ennis, Conner, Palmiotti, Mounts) and what a funny, funny comic (not for the politically correct).
I could not believe the selection of odd ball, off the wall stuff. Right up our alley. We purchased lotsa stuff.
The guy we spoke to (I think he was the owner) was an oddball himself and very charming. We talked about San Diego Comic Con and the difficulty in finding good comic book stores or comic book stores with staying power. He was a fountain of information and willing to order any comic book you wanted if he didn't have it in stock. Very nice and accommodating as well.
If we lived closer to Las Vegas this would be one of our regular stops. Very warm and hospitable atmosphere.
