Leave a Review Midtown Comics
Nice App But
I would give it a lot higher rating if it were compatible with the IPad as all he tp’ed is squeezed in on my iPhone making it harder to read.
The menu organization also leaves a lot to be desired. Rather than constantly having to surf through menus it would be a lot easier if all new issues were already sorted by type and character along with the scrolling menus.
Also recently there has been a constant error message every time I attempt to place an order stating some issue ( unspecified) is out of stock. Having to start all over not knowing where the problem is has become a nightmare. Please fix this!
All that being noted please do understand that I love MidTown Comics and I would not shop anywhere else for my comic collections!Show lessJohnD7778
Ordering Experience
Ordering books from them has been nothing but a great experience. Packages have been banged up but the comic inside is well secured and the package travels to Los Angeles. Another key factor that I really enjoy is I add a book that I’m looking for with the grade/condition and they send me a email when it’s available.Show lessErnie Esp
What the...
App is great, for the most part. I haven’t been able to order any books through it, and I’m using an iPhone. I keep getting an error message saying my card has been declined, and I have tried two other cards just out of curiosity, and it still says the same thing. My card is charged for my pull-list, but yet I can’t use the same card, or any card for that matter to make a random purchase outside of my scheduled pull. What’s even stranger, is that I’m forced to pay using PayPal when I use my desktop PC (Win 10) Yeah, what the....Anyone with similar issues?
I used to be able to make purchases before, but it’s been like this for a good year or so now. Ditto with PC.Show lessNuwaver74
Midtown comics review
Honestly I much prefer getting things from my local shop however sometimes they can’t order things I want and that’s where midtown comes in. They always have really good and cool collections of trades and singles. Love that singles come with bag and board and are always very neatly sent. My only complaint is the tracking system is semi strange and sometimes packages take a little longer than I like processing but honestly I’m always looking forward to looking at their variants and library overall.Show lessKhonshuKid
The app search function is terrible
It simply does not allow you to search for comics, you search for a particular title and it takes you to another screen where it breaks down how many results there are in each category, once you select the category you want it then shows 0 results even though the previous screen stated there were multiple results
Also the app seems to be optimized for an iPhone 5 or something, it has the small screen and looks very outdated
Has made my experience very unpleasant so far, as I am still waiting for a tracking number for a purchase I made a full 7 days ago
Most likely, will not ever shop with them again, may cancel my order if no information is received soonShow lessGiullianoPo
It Finally Works!!!
I’ve been a Midtown Comics patron for decades. I’ve had the app for years now and all of the bugs are gone! I find myself using this app regularly now. It’s especially useful during the coronavirus quarantine! I haven’t been in the store for a couple of weeks but I’m still getting my comics! Great app!Show lesschasgo3
Pull list option
Would love an option that shows my pulled titles for a given week! Otherwise, excellent app, just like the stores.Midtown Fan 4 life
Very useful tool
Although I moved from NYC to Portland, Maine (shout out to Coast City Comics and Casablanca Comics), I still use this app weekly as a quick way to preview what I want to look for. My only “constructive feedback” is that it seems to shift to next week’s comics at about Noon on NCBD and I have to manually revert it to the current week’s
books (and repeat that each time I look at another publisher’s lineup) when I head to my LCS after work. Not a huge deal but...Show lessMattSMaine
Great App!
Having just got back into collection comics this app makes it easy to know what’s doing out each week and stay on top of the titles I
like. Also great to get your pull list ready for pick up at the Manhattan locations on the way to/from work. I use this as much as I use my seamless and doordash appsShow lessReallymadchimp
Helpful but some bugs
I order a ton from Midtown so the app is super useful. But I wish I could get a fix for two main bugs. First is that I can’t set notifications on on my iPhone X with latest iOS version. I am pretty sure I could before at some point. Second is that comic book thumbnails don’t load sometimes, maybe a slow pull from the image database, but I check the website and the pics are there. Also a slight annoyance is that when my iPhone switches to night mode, the app doesn’t support it well. The notifications are blacked out.Show lessNYSpeeds
