![]() This, however, is down from twenty-four stores when I opened in 1989, so comics in San Francisco are not once they once were. At least two of those are only open half-hours, or are not open to walk-in customers while COVID still rages. The stores are, well us and Outpost, as well as Amazing Fantasy, Cards & Comics Central, Isotope, Jeffrey’s Toys, Mission: Comics. ![]() San Francisco is currently home to now seven comic book stores.

There was a moment where it looked like Outpost was going to flat out close, but at the last moment we found a buyer in the form of James Teal. However, in 2021, both staff members at Outpost announced they had to permanently leave the store at the exact same time for personal reasons, and I simply didn’t have the will or the bandwidth to effectively “have to start over again” there. I opened the original store more than 32 years ago on April 1st, 1989, when I was merely twenty-one years old, and I purchased Outpost on, in order to stop it from closing overnight. My name is Brian Hibbs and for most of the year, I owned two comic book stores in San Francisco: Comix Experience at 305 Divisadero St, and Comix Experience Outpost at 2381 Ocean Ave. Just in case this is your first time reading a sales report from us, let me give you a little background and a longer look at my CV.
