Only my second time in, today I came to drop off a couple items to the Omaha Autonomous (a volunteer collective working to create community well-being through mutual aid) winter coat drive as well as find a novel gift for my lore-loving 14-year-old. I, not knowing much about comics, picked up Spider-Gwen: Smash because the cover was interesting and it was a character I 've heard of before. I asked the person behind the counter if there were more of the comics from the series, and if they knew anything else about it. Oh yeah, it 's a fun and fresh take on the Spider-verse. Which is hard to do because they 've been making books and movies for over sixty years. Then the person proceeded to show me all of the various Spider-Gwen 's, and also very kindly explained what a variant edition is. The staff member 's genuine love for comics was infectious and extremely helpful in finding the perfect gift. Another thing: I was greeted by a different staff member wearing a face mask when I walked in, which was nice to see because I also wear a face mask. It is a sign of community care. Not only is Legends a sprawling space filled to the ceiling with shelves and drawers of comics; not only do they have a coffee shop and gaming room for sitting to stay a while; this place is actually doing the work that builds community. This local business is sharing space for mutual aid, comic nerds, non-comic fans, and a whole wall for LGBTQIA+ comics. Thank you, more please. At the checkout with the staff member that helped me find Spider-Gwen, I asked their name and said thank you. Dave he replied and gave me his business card. After I walked out I looked down, read the business card, and came to find out that Dave is the owner. Smh. Day made.
Love comics, love coffee, love this place! The pumpkin spice muffin is delicious, and I am currently enjoying a dirty chai. Great place for unique gifts if you’re looking for something for a comic lover in your life.
New in town, from the outside I was super excited like a little kid going to the candy shop. The place was very nice, clean and empty. Immediately when I walked in it was a total 360. Maybe it was just a off day but definitely did not feel welcomed . Grabbed a cup of coffee and exit immediately. I increase the Stars due to the cleanliness !!!
I absolutely love this comic shop! Mike, Champ, and the rest of the staff are always friendly and helpful. I've been visiting weekly at this point. The coffee is quite good as well, so I’d definitely recommend it if you’re a fan of comics. They also host various events, although I haven’t had the chance to attend one yet.
Great variety of options, a charming little coffee shop, and even a game room!
