What counts as a comic shop in Cincinnati

A shop built around comics: new issues, back issues, trades, usually with the games and collectibles alongside. What doesn't count: the graphic-novel shelf at the bookstore, and online-only sellers. The bar is a real shop where Wednesday means new comics.

Cincinnati sits about 39° north of the equator, so it gets proper seasons. Winter is peak comics season: dark evenings, the big event storylines running, and the Wednesday ritual at its cosiest.

When comic shops in Cincinnati get mapped, they appear here with addresses and hours where recorded. Mapped means listed — no paid placement, no favourites.

Comic smarts for Cincinnati

No mapped comic shops yet, but the comics habits work anywhere. Four worth knowing:

• Check the sale bins. The discount long boxes turn over constantly. A dollar a comic for reading copies is unbeatable.
• Pre-order the big events. Major storylines sell out. Pre-ordering through your shop guarantees your copy and helps them order right.
• Try digital for sampling. Digital issues are cheap for trying series. When you love one, buy the physical from your shop.
• Ask about complete runs. Shops often have full series in the back issues that aren't on display. Ask — the hunt is half the fun.
