We’re talking to the team behind Final Boss Comics, a shop that’s been quietly building something special for nearly two decades.
Owner Floyd and manager Griffin join us to talk about their upcoming expansion into a second-floor space, how they’ve turned their shop into a true community hub, and what it actually takes to run a successful comic store in 2026.
We get into what’s selling right now, why creator-focused recommendations still matter, how events and book clubs keep readers engaged, and why they’ve chosen to prioritize in-person connection over chasing online sales.
If you’ve ever wondered what makes a comic shop work, or why some continue to grow while others struggle, this is a great conversation to dig into.
