Toy or Comic Book Stores In Virginia Beach

[Monsterama2000]

My wife and I will be vacationing in Virginia Beach next week and I was wondering if anyone could recommend any toy or comic book stores. I am mainly looking for cheap older comics and toys (especially Hulk) and trading cards would be a plus. My wife says I'm allowed to visit three stores, so I have to choose wisely.

I've been vacationing in Virginia Beach for 25 years, but in my opinion the best place is actually in Hampton, Va (I-64 will take you through there on your way to the tunnels into Va Beach).

Benders - located off the last exit before you hit the tunnels
This place is kind of a mess, but is stuffed full of comics, toys, books, etc. Things aren't organized very well, but it's a lot of fun just sifting through piles of stuff. I haven't been in there in a few years, so I'd check it out online first to make sure it is still open. The guy who runs it is older, but the hours are great (open early 7 days a week as they have a large newspaper and magazine selection. The store space is pretty big. I'd hit it either on the way to the beach or on the way home, since you won't want to waste time in the tunnel traffic during your stay.

There are many other shops in the area, Trilogy, Comic Kings, Atomic Comics, etc, but this is the one I'd be sure not to miss.

*edited to add: Benders is the shop where I purchased a complete MIB set of Mego Kiss dolls in 1990 for $300!

Thank you warlock664! I love digging through stuff. I may have to check it out.

Anyone else have any suggestions?
