akqjofspds I don't care about old tea kettles and lamps, Im a comic book nerd and this is my pawn stars. The guys are funny and knowledgeable. They have a lot of neat stuff that comes through the front doors and some of the stuff on the show feels scripted but who cares as long as its entertaining, i mean who really wants "reality" any way. Then they do this podcast thing every episode thats really fun, just a bunch of friends hanging out. and they start every episode with some really funny topic that usually gets a good laugh or two.. like "what superhero chick would you want to have sex with?" lol. Im so glad kevin decided to make this show. hopefully there's a season 2.

killer1h I'm a big fan of comic stuff, like old superhero's, movies, obviously comics. To me this show actually goes above and beyond I mean, it's literally like clerks but in a comic store. Probably because its directed by Kevin smith but still.When I first heard about this show my thoughts were "it's just going to be a boring comic book show", but it's not! This show is hilarious and the stuff they talk about is something you can really see yourself doing when you sit around and just joke with friends.I give it a 10/10 because its just got every element that you expect in a comic book store show and more.

Danny Blankenship Sure I'm 34 but I have to say that AMC's new series "Comic Book Men" brings back memories and the child in me as I remember the days when I enjoyed the thrill of buying and collecting comic books and the many action figures that I played with that had me in escape. This series is a pop culture showcase for any comic, toy or superhero film geek. As creator and known filmmaker Kevin Smith showcases his old Jersey roots of Red Bank as each week he shows his buddies Walt Flanagan, Mike Zapcic, Bryan Johnson, and Ming Chen as they run "Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash" and seeing the insides of this place this is a pop culture dream for a fan! Kevin conducts on air radio interviews with each and clips are shown of customers coming in the shop buying trading and selling comics. And it's hard to believe the value of some these especially the older comics! It's nice to see the guys go to conventions, and shoot commercials, and chat with customers and make deals as Walt really knows his comics and culture of toys it's nice to see the many treasures brought into the shop I for one like seeing the old Mego dolls!(now a world wanted valued toy item). Plus these fine gentlemen give talk on their favorite films, superhero picks and they talk about horror films. All in the process these guys have fun doing so. Sure this may not be everyone's cup of tea but if your a comic book or toy doll or action figure collector fan this series is a nice joy! Even as an adult it will bring back childhood memories, yet still yet your never to old to be a fan of Batman, Star Wars, horror films, or Mego dolls!

poe426 I tried for years to get one of the local comic shop owners- in two different cities, in two different states- to do just such a show for Public Access; none of them were interested (despite the fact that it would've amounted to free advertising), and I finally quit asking. It's all moot, now, I guess, because the local Public Access channel was dropped from the local cable system (despite protests, although I read somewhere just recently that a local religious faction is clamoring for air time, so it may be resurrected). Public Access was- and still is, in cities where it's available- the perfect venue for a talk show about comic books. And it's about time, too: comic books are Big Business these days in Hollywoodland. COMIC BOOK MEN is the perfect companion piece to THE BIG BANG THEORY.
