The comic book store owners will focus on a newer location in Tempe, with hints of plans to expand beyond the Valley of the Sun…
Strange Adventures, an Arizona comic shop that opened in late 2021 at SanTan Village in Gilbert as a resurrected Atomic Comics before rebranding last year, is turning another page.
In 2023, a second, larger store with event space and a cafe opened at Tempe Marketplace. This will be the focus of Strange Adventures, at least for now:
“We are merging our Gilbert location with our Tempe location,” the store posted on social media. “We decided that focusing on a core ‘flagship’ location was the best way for us to truly serve the Valley’s geek community.
“We have a lot of great plans for the Tempe store and some great events lined up through 2025 … Stay tuned for more exciting expansion announcements outside of the Valley!”
The post added that Gilbert’s store will host a moving sale in November, as well as a coming out party.
From Atomic Comics to Weird Adventures…
