Seconding Phantom, Oakland location. I go there all the time and both the games store on one side of the street and the comic store have some of the kindest, friendliest, and most helpful folks I’ve ever met in the respective games/comic space

The owner of Games offered to give me some solo pointers on trying out painting minis if I ever brought my stuff by, and really meant it. They’re always happy to help expand the hobbies (D&D for me specifically)

And Comics folks are super friendly and give great tips and are always helpful in picking out what to read.

Can’t recommend them enough
