CHALLENGERS Comics + Conversation is a comic book store. Not a "pop culture" store. Not a "cards and comics" store. Not a "collectibles" store. A comic book store. And we wouldn't have it any other way. Started in March 2008 by Patrick Brower and W. Dal Bush, Challengers Comics + Conversation strives to live up to their name by not just providing a solid selection of comics to Chicago, but by providing a little bit of conversation as well. Whether that's info on the current Avengers storyline, where you should go after finishing Watchmen, or if Frank Miller's still got it, we're here to not only sell comics, but talk comics.
