JHU Comic Books (Formerly of Jim Hanley's Universe) 299 New Dorp Lane, Staten Island, NY 10306

"I was walking around the area the Manhattan Store was once in only to see that the place was closed down and condemned. Sad stuff to see honestly. This store had two down to earth people whenever I went there . An older guy named Nick and a younger guy also Named Nick, and they were both very cool down to earth individuals who were always down to have a conversation about the culture and had great inventory and stock. I used to go to their comic signings right before the pandemic hit, and when things started reopening went there once and twice before things got busier for me. As a Brooklynite I wished I ventured out into Manhattan to see these guys more. I’m sure the Staten Island store is just as good if not better and will definitely visit if I’m ever online Staten Island again . Rip to the Manhattan store, long live Indy comic shops"

"Since moving to Staten Island and returning to comic collecting, JHU Comics has become my new home for comics. The whole crew has been super cool and friendly, knowledgeable, and great to even just chat with. They have definitely made me feel welcomed and I am so happy to be back into this universe. If you love all things comics, come check this place out!"

"My favorite shop in Staten Island! I don't live in Staten Island anymore but always go out of my way to stop by and pick something up when I'm home. Always a blast talking with Gore who’s very helpful and knowledgable. Happy to go out of their way to find any item and ship books if needed. Store isn't very big and product can feel a bit all over the place at times, but they make the most of their space still offering a variety of TCG’s, toys, and older key books."

"Walking in I instantaneously transform to my 10 yrs old self. The aroma of storytelling and art emanate from every crevice. You can smell the adventures on every wall. Step into a world of imagination and wonder. I'm thankful there exists an environment like JHU Comics. Thank me later!"

"Been coming here since I could read. 30 something years, 3 locations on New Dorp Ln. I’ve had an on/off relationship with comics and collectibles, but this store kind of set the standard for comic shops for me in terms of selection and service. Now I bring my 8 year old son here and the staff has always been friendly and patient with him, and we feel comfortable browsing around. This is an ideal example of a comic shop, and a staple on Staten Island. Thanks for sticking around and keep up the great work JHU!"
