If you love comic books, have a hobby, or need a family-friendly environment to enjoy those passions, come on over to Mesa Comics, where Michael Girard has created a fun and relaxing store for all ages.
Whether you want to sort cards, play games, read comic books, or find the latest items in the comic book world, Mesa Comics is the place for you. “This store is a safe environment for anyone to practice their hobby,” Michael said.
His sister introduced him to the world of comics and games back in 1996, when she taught him how to play Magic: The Gathering. This game still is going strong, with Mesa Comics carrying what you need to play.
Michael’s expertise runs the gamut, from game design, sales and manufacturing, to now owning Mesa Comics. “I want to pair comic book readers and fans with the stuff they want to read,” he said. Michael enjoys seeing that aha moment when he is teaching a game to people in the store.
Some of the happenings at Mesa Comics include workshops on Thursdays for Warhammer and sorting cards. On Wednesdays, its old and new comic releases, and comic stories are featured once a month. You also can create a subscription box at no charge. A total of three titles are complimentary. You then will receive a 15 percent discount when a credit card is used.
In addition, there are tournaments for Magic: The Gathering, with prizes and a minimum cost of just $5 to play. All ages are welcome. As a matter of fact, a father and 4-year-old son recently visited Mesa Comics to get an Avengers comic book after seeing the movie that morning.
If you are looking for a wonderful place to practice your hobby, getting started in the world of comic books, or just wishing to meet new people with similar interests, come to Mesa Comics. See what is being offered. You won’t be disappointed.
Located on the northwest corner of Power and Brown roads, Mesa Comics is open Tuesday through Sunday, from noon to 9 p.m. The store is closed on Monday.
