I have been a member of Mailordercomics on and off (as the wallet allows) for the last 2 years. Michael Robinson, who owns the joint, handles contacts personally and has worked tirelessly to better his service.
They offer pre-orders on comics and comic merchandise and their prices simply cannot be beat. They have a flexible shipping schedule and their website makes it easy to use “pick-lists” or customized orders side-by-side.
Michael has recently announced that March will be a relaunch of sorts for the service with all kinds of increased discounts and better services. Here’s a rundown of what we can look forward to, snipped from Michael’s email to the membership.
More Discounts - That’s right, our service is good, but we’ve been told we’re being outdone on some prices by a few of our competitors. So, here is what you can expect beginning in February.
DC Comics
- A minimum of 15 comics discounted at 50%
- A minimum of 10 NEW trade paperbacks discounted 50%
- At least 2 hard covers discounted 50%

Image Comics

Independents

- An assortment of indy comics discounted at 50%
Miscellaneous
- More discounts on statues, toys, apparel, and more
As you can see, the prices can’t be beat and March will see a price match guarantee that promises to beat any online price on comics by 5%.
As a very satisfied customer, I would implore any interested comics fans to check out the Mailordercomics.com service.
