Our Story This comic shop was started about 15 years ago by Dick Swan and was under the name "Big Guys Comics". May 30th 2002 Joe Levine and Phil Schlaefer approached Dick to purchase the store. The offer was taken and the shop now renamed to Comic Collector Shop in honor of the old Comic Collector Shop owned by Bob Sidebottom in San Jose, California. Sidebottom's was one of the earliest comic shops in the country established in 1967. Joe Levine has always been a comics enthusiast and worked for Phil Schlaefer when Phil still owned Heroes Comics in Campbell, California. Phil Schlaefer established Heroes Comics in Campbell in 1985 selling it to Alan Bahr in 1995. Among his comics interest, Joe Levine is an active member of the gaming community. His specialties are Magic: the Gathering, Warhammer 40k, and LARPs.
