Excellent selection of comics, board games, and off the beat path table top role playing game systems! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, but wont bug you if you just want to meander around the shop and peruse their goods. Their selection of plushies and collectibles (from mystery boxes to top shelf figures) is quiet impressive and well curated. Dont forget to check out their dice and enable pin inventory while looking through their comic/manga shelves. Great store, great staff, always leave a happy customer!
A great store with a little bit of everything for anyone, they have a wide variety of comics, miniatures, both board and card games, manga, books, graphic novels and more. The store has an open, accepting feel that could make anyone regardless of gender or age feel at home. I look forward to going again in the nearby future.
Our family loves Vault of Midnight. They keep a great variety of comics, graphic novels, Manga, and other fun readables. There is something fun for everyone and the staff is very helpful.
We dont live in AA anymore but make a point to visit everytime we go. Its got a great selection of games and they have descriptions of the game on the box so you can get a sense of what its about. They have comics and graphic novels that at great for all ages.
Excellent selection of books, manga, and figurine. The accessories they sell are well worth the visit. The true diamond is the basement filled with a wonderful variety of board games. If assistance is needed, the excellent staff will be there ready for you.
This is a cool shop on Main Street in Ann Arbor. They have an excellent selection of games in the basement which is the main reason I went there. Prices are a little high, but I guess that’s to be expected on main street. This is a great place to go for any type of board game, comic book, action figures and many more collectibles.
Great selection! Friendly and helpful staff!
My friends and i got a black mirror board/phone game from here, it was sweet!! The stuff they have is adorable, comics are 👍 well priced and check out the cute burrito plushies!!! Love it here 🌸
It was ok. It did not have every comic i was looking for but it was still nice
Great little store. Blots of comics upstairs and games downstairs. Always very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff.
Best comix store I have ever visited. Extensive, well curated selection. Helpful and kind staff. And board games too!
They make fully vaccinated people wear a face diaper in the store LOL. Girl at the front counter had an earloop mask and I asked her to put on an effective N95 mask since her mask was less than 1% effective. She said its not about the effectiveness, its about the compliance. Never coming back to this weirdo run place
This group of extremely knowledgeable and hardworking people who founded this store, continue to adapt it to the trends of about 1,000 different product cultures, and still manage to smile and happily explain anything and everything they carry. I saw one founder take the time to explain the comic book universes to a woman who didnt care at first, but was genuinely interested in the vast creative worlds on those shelves after the founders quick intro speech. This store is more like a museum, and also a symbol of Ann Arbors population of nerdy but undeniably intelligent, interesting and creative populace who worship Vault of Midnight as I do. Awesome business worth supporting at all times.
Love this game store, for an Ann Arbor storefront I was worried they wouldnt have the space for all the typical game store staples like mini paint, miniatures, board games, dice, plush animals, or other merch but they find a way to fit it all in! I highly recommend giving it a visit for any of your nerdy needs.
I love this place I even like the one in Detroit I got a really good deal on the Batwing and bat cave from the animated series from them they boxed it up real nice definitely will go back and buy more
A great store. They have lots of comic books and graphic novels, plus related games and paraphernalia. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful.
I love this store it has everything comic and manga, also all the board games in the basement are pretty fun to look around
Incredible staff, wonderful setting, parking is tricky but worth it for sure.
Coolest store in AA. So many games/comics and employees are super chill
Being a fan of anything nerdy absolutely drew me to go inside and check things out. This place is huge and is beautifully displayed. if you are into pop culture board games comic books and everything in between then this is definitely the place worth stopping and checking out. the staff here was very friendly and I was shown the basement which has a huge collection of board games and lots of back issues of comics. There are a ton of gifts here and different collector items of nearly everything you can think of. Definitely a must visit if you take a stroll down Main Street.
This place has so much incredible merchandise. Even if youre not into comics or board games its still cool to go in and look around.
Great store for finding highly thematic boardgames. Also a large comic selection. They also have dice and other rpg accessories but its not really their main thing.
Very rude staff there definitely is better collectible stores in the area
Was just told by an employee not to read the whole book while thumbing through a shonen jump. I typically do this before buying. Was trying to figure out where I was in the series. Have been coming here for years and will not return. Youve lost a customer.
Great local shop for a wealth of comics, graphic novels, manga, zines, artwork, collectibles, and tabletop games/supplies. Friendly and helpful staff, clean and well-organized, and thoughtfully curated. If you love a nerd, this is where you need to come to find a gift for them. If that nerd is you, treat yourself!
The perfect solution for all your nerdstuff needs. Comics, graphic novels, board games, T-shirts - you name it, they have it!Pro-tip: for a week, you can rent certain board games for $5 and pay the difference to keep it if it tickles your fancy, or return it, no questions asked. Finally, buying board games is no longer a shot in the dark :)
Need comics book?Need board game?Need fun?Well the best place EVER in all Ann Arbor.The staff is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G like Peter.They are wonderful like Diana!A super service at the level of Clark himself.They are never depress like Bruce... And definitely as fun as Wade!Any question, any request, they will find you the answer faster than Ed would do!You need more? Believe me, even Bruce wont turn green in those friends hands.With them, Tony wont look anymore fancy than you!!!!
Must go to for classic comics, eclectic board games, miniatures, colorful dice set, and foreign snacks. Lots of memories made over the dollar and 25¢ bin comic books!
Vault of Midnight is the epitome of comic book stores. Full stop. Inventory, organization, and incredibly great people make this place as good as it could possibly be.
Staff is friendly, well read and knowledgeable. If you havent ventured downstairs then you are missing out. Great graphic novel and table top game store.
This store is so cute and fun. They have a lot of really great figurines and the selection of dice was great. The downstairs is a great place to find new board games and older comics. And dont miss out on the adorable plushies and anime shirts. The staff was also super nice.
Best shop to get the perfect gift and cool comics and Pokémon Go gear. Love how open and friendly they are. Happy to answer questions and help you.Every single shopping experience there is great! Can’t wait to go back!
Best comics book, gaming store I have ever been in. Graphic novels, games, plush and figure collectables.
Two floors packed with everything you could want from a game or comic book store. Comics, books, stuffed toys, puzzles, mini figs, brushes, board games, rpg manuals, etc. Awesome!
The awesome staff helped us pick out our sons first Spiderman comic.
I want to like this place more than I do but the people working the registers are more often than not upset or dismissive. Its tough because they have a great selection of games and comics but the interactions at the register take away from the experience.
Every Vault of Midnight is great! This one is no exception!
This store is dangerous. I think it is legitimately impossible to leave there without spending money. Its like they know all the things I want to buy, and put all of them into one store at the same time.
Very fun and nice place! They didnt have everything we were looking for but thats to be expected of any in-person shop. Browsing was fun and the friendly staff made us feel welcome. Overall great experience, and Ill definitely be returning!
I’ve been coming here for over 20 years. The owners are lovely people, the staff is awesome, and the selection of comics and games is top notch. This is the best comic book shop in the state.
Great selection for board games and DND, little magic: the gathering and other tcg products
Friendly staff great selections and bought a game Ive never seen before. Definitely check them out. I sure will when I visit MI again.
I can always find the perfect birthday gift for my friends here and usually something for myself too. The shop is clean, well organized, and they carry a huge variety of stuff.
Love the store. Fantastic collection of board and card games, comics, graphic novels, and collectibles. I could spend hours here, and I have on several occasions!
Very cool place, welcoming atmosphere, great selection of comics, graphic novels, and tabletop games!
Great store, friendly service, and a huge variety of everything geeky-comics, board games, dice, collectibles, candy, and more! Very enjoyable experience.
Probably hands down my favorite local comic book store. They have a massive selection of comics, manga, plushies & collectibles to satisfy your inner geek lol. Im always finding something new here every time I come. Also its the only place nearby that seems to carry the sleeping Pokémon plushies that I love. And lastly, their location is perfect right in the heart of downtown Ann Arbor. I definitely highly recommend checking it out! ^_^
Awesome store!! Great selection of current issues, back issues, graphic novels, and a smattering of cool games and puzzles. And thats just the upstairs!! Venture down for more back issues and fun!
Beautiful store, great selection! Prices are what youd expect from a comic shop.
Great comic book shop, large amounts of trades and single issues, staff is always going out if their way to help you and make sure youre getting what you want and need when it comes to comics. Lots of cool statues and all kinds of table top gaming stuff, like dice and figures or just straight up games. Love this place I make a 45 minute drive just to come to this store.
Been going all my life and never had a problem! Very nice people work there and the store is super clean 👌🏻
Best selection of board games in the A2 area. Also comic books and graphic novels out the wazoo.
Such a cool place definitely recommend for anybody who is into comics, manga, board games, and DND
Visiting Ann Arbor and found the awesome comic book store. Lots of options, great layout, friendly staff. Bought a few novels.
Awesome comic storeGreat staffGreat selection10/10
This is the best place for Nerd and non-nerds alike! They have the best selection of board games that will get your family into an amazing family fun night! They also have the largest selection of comics for all ages. This place is truly a highlight of what Ann Arbor has to offer.
Awesome comic shop, with a great selection of games downstairs, super friendly staff !
I cant stop myself from buying something while I am visiting. Ultimate geek store!
Really awesome store. They have everything you could need for tabletop gaming and a large variety of comics. Staff is very friendly and helpful
Great store! Excellent selection of comics, and cool figures! Friendly staff and an all around cool environment! Definitely check it out if youre interested in Comics!!
I have been going to Vault of Midnight for 20 years. When my little boy asked if he could go to a comic store for the first time, there was no doubt in my mind where we would go. One of the staffers even picked out two new release SpiderHam comics when he overheard us talking about Peter Porker. My boy loved our visit, and hopefully he will have a love of comics for years to come, thanks to our friendly neighborhood Comic Staff!
A nerdy little paradise. Tabletop games, comics, manga, plushies, figures, collectables, D&D miniatures, and thats not even everything. The staff was super nice, offering help and answering questions, even making a comic recommendation because he heard us talking about Studio Ghibli. Their tabletop selection is MASSIVE. I dont know how it compares to other stores, but it took up most of the basement and they had things I hadnt heard of before.
VoM is my go to for board games. The staff is great, the selection is top notch. Prices are pretty solid for most items, come here every few weeks and spend too much $.
They have every comic you could possibly want, Cute plushies, candy, board games, and figures. The staff are amazing as well.
This is a great place to let your inner need run free. My daughter would live here if she could.
Great place with lots of awesome games and comics. One of my favorite places to go in Ann Arbor.
Phenomenal store, I had such a great experience. I found 3 key books I’ve been looking for, the staff were all super friendly, and although I didn’t buy any, they have tons of awesome high end action figures
This is a great place. I want to buy everything.
Everything...this store just has everything! Staff is super friendly and helpful!
Great place for comics! I love shopping there.
Pretty expensive, most products 40% over MSRP, but have a good selection of things.
Great selection! Questionable customer service...
This is one of my favorite comic book shops. They have a great selection and the people that work there are fun and knowledgeable. I like the one in Detroit as well, this one is just my personal favorite.
So much variety and a great layout. Its great to see all the things i love in one place.
Fantastic game shop. Best Ive ever seen. Enormous selection of games, CCGs, comics. Very knowledgeable staff.
Such a great store and they seem to be doing a great job following Covid safety protocols! Did curbside pickup and am very grateful that it was an option! Excellent selection of board games on their site!
Lots of great choices of games, books, comics, and more! I usually go here without a specific item in mind but can always find something that fits my needs. Great place for Christmas gifts.
Been going here for years. Knowledgeable staff.
One of the great bookstores of America ... Specific to sci fi comics fantasy and the like. Best part is that the staff are like the bygone movie nerds who knew every film in the store, except here its even better because its like the books are all part of this big family and the staff know all their best and worst secrets and theyre generous in sharing. We only occasionally go in for a specific book - usually it is for something nerdy and science-based but not too scary and NO kissing kind of requests and they ALWAYS know the perfect book to fit. We love them so much.
Its just the place to be. What more can anyone say?
Comics, games, collectibles... This place has everything! Dont forget to check out the lower level while youre there.
I absolutely love this store! Theres so much different stuff to choose from and theres such a vast collection of comics that can appease any fan.
Wonderful comic book and board game shop. The owner/operators are passionate and knowledgeable about all things comics and games.
Cool place and tons of collectables/comics
Super friendly. Always knowledgeable and accommodating
Great stock and variety of books and collectables.
Great selection, friendly and helpful staff.
Good as it always is, be prepared to wait because theyre popular
A gem in Downtown Ann Arbor. Great collection of comics, graphic novels, puzzles and games for all ages! My fiancé and I found several mangas, as the manga section was fully stocked with a wide variety to browse and choose from. The employee working the front register was very helpful and recommended we also look downstairs for some unique and older comics and more rare editions as well as more games. We ended up finding a great collection of Wonder Woman comics to browse and I picked out a few to add to my collection. When we checked out, the employee gave us a loyalty punch card to use towards our next visit. This was a very fun and pleasant experience and we will definitely be back!
Huge selection, very helpful and kind staff!
Amazing people work here! They will help you find exactly what you are looking for.
Everyone at Vault of Midnight is super friendly and helpful.... Specifically Caleb (hope I got the right spelling) and Justin, who both answered every question I had, and then some. I was greeted warmly as soon as I walked in and genuinely enjoyed my conversations with the staff. Their prices for back issues are good as well. With the world a little on edge these days, customer service experiences like this go a long way.
Never a disappointment. They have tons of cool graphic novels for kids, board games galore, gorgeous figurines and dice, card games... its truly amazing.
Loved it will be comming back for more
Michigan has many great comics stores, and Vault is consistently excellent in terms of selection (esp. graphic novels) and service.
Always the best in comics,I couldnt find my series Tales of the Crypt horror stories.I have to order online
