3878 Oak Lawn AveNOT CLOSED!!!!!
They've just moved from their Oak Lawn location to new digs on Lemmon near Wycliff and the Tollway. They are next to the McDonald's...actually they are in the building that used to be Club Sparx--a mini all aged Stark Club in the 80's....un cha un cha un cha.
Sooooo...my daughter likes Manga. I like a little. OKAY, enough torture, I will tell the truth. I READ A LOT OF MANGA. I'm like a housewife on boxed wine watching the soaps. Yes, it's very soap operay with cute kitty cats. And while Zeus hasn't got them all back in yet, they usually have a nice selection.
But they have the best selection of fun toys EVER. Need a bobble head, except for Mr. T, they have most of them. Need the Reservoir Dogs Kubrick figures, well, they might still have some.
What's neat is they have a new release list online so you can make a weekly pull list ant they will put it aside for you.
Oh my inner-geek sings....

Zeus Comics stands apart from most comic book stores as a place that not only caters to the dedicated pop culture geeks, but also offers a hip and comfortable atmosphere for the casual shopper. The store has a wide selection of mainstream and independent comics with a sizable graphic novel and manga area. Everything is nicely displayed on stylish wood shelves with overhead track lighting. The employees are friendly and knowledgeable. For the regular customer, they do a good job of remembering the kinds of titles you enjoy -- and offer suggestions for books you may have missed. If you don't live near Oaklawn, their website features a very user-friendly online order option. Get comics mailed to your house each week! Zeus hosts numerous signing and events throughout the year. The highlight is in early May with CAPE, the Comic Arts and Pop Culture Expo. Multiple tents set in the parking lot, and comic book professionals from around country come to meet with fans.
