None of the 1 has opening hours in the map data, so treat this as a browse-and-discover trip. Wednesday is new-comic day everywhere, so midweek visits are the safe bet.
Comic shop tips for St. Catharines
The Wednesday ritual, St. Catharines edition:
- Pre-order the big events at Big B Comics. Major storylines sell out. Pre-ordering through your shop guarantees your copy and helps them order right.
- Visit on Free Comic Book Day. First Saturday in May. Free comics, creators, costumes — the best day to discover a new shop.
- Don't be embarrassed to start. Everyone starts somewhere. 'I've never read comics, where do I begin?' is a question staff hear happily every week.
- 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.
