So many amazing and unique books for fans of comics, manga, and art. Great gallery in the back that hosts cool local art shows. I love coming into the store and walking out with a stack of stuff to read.

What a great store! Chock full of indie/alternative comics from the world over. When I came in looking for a specific item which was unfortunately sold out, the proprietor offered me an even-cooler exclusive from the same artist, which was so nice. Highly recommended for the discerning comics art fan.

Awesome comic shop! With tons of indie, local and European titles most shops won't carry! Awesome artwork and a gallery tucked away in the back

Yesterday, I was fortunate to visit Howling Pages for the first time after hearing so many good things about the store for years. Upon entering, I was overwhelmed by the wall to wall selection of trade paperbacks, hardcovers, indie comics, and other fantastic reading materials that are available there. Alain was a delight to chat with and has impressive knowledge about comics across the various genres that encompass the industry. I walked away from my experience with the excitement of knowing that I've got reading materials that will keep me busy for a while and will continue to enjoy again and again. It goes without saying that I will be swinging by again the next time I'm in the area.

I recently discovered this place and it is awesome! I love the varity and more focus on indie comics! I mostly look for outsider comics and manga, so this place is perfect for someone like me! I love that they have some sections catagorized by author as well! Made it very easy for me to find the tezuka works that they had easily! I also like the art on the wall and the atmosphere in the store. I will be back and happy to support this business again! Ill have to come in when the art gallery is open as well! Thanks guys!
