While it would appear that Newbury Comics' online presence focuses on their other merchandise, they still (mostly through their brick & mortar fronts -of which there are almost 30 locations) deal comicbooks.

History

Newbury Comics was established in 1978 by two college kids (Mike Dreese and John Brusger). Their school was M.I.T. and their first location was on Newbury street in Boston. They started with comics and worked their way into vinyl. By 1995 they had multiple locations and a significant online presence. Now, in addition to comics, they deal action figures, t-shirts, alternative music, and Doc Martens -to name just a few of the many.
