In July 2024, I visited every comic book store around Pittsburgh. I developed a 37 point rating system designed to help comic book fans find the perfect comic book store(s) when they visit this great city. 
 
After weeks of research, I believe Pittsburgh is the greatest comic book city in the Western hemisphere. This guide details all of the stores in and around Pittsburgh. It also provides some history of the comic book culture that these stores created and continue to build. This guide includes maps, infographics, photos, ratings, and reviews.
