History
HEROES AREN'T HARD TO FIND is one of the largest and most well-known comics retailers in the country. We carry a complete line of new comics, graphic novels, and manga; as well as back issues, Silver and Golden Age comics, statues, specialty items, and our own line of comics collecting supplies. Located in the heart of the historic Elizabeth neighborhood near uptown Charlotte, we work hard to foster a family-friendly atmosphere, while carrying an incredible diverse line of comics from every genre. Heroes was started in 1980 by a then 26-year-old Shelton Drum, who had been selling comics at area flea markets for the last several years. A comic collector since childhood, Shelton began aggressively hunting out his favorite issues during the mid-60's, after noticing that Amazing Spider-Man #1 was selling for the then-unbelievable price of ten dollars.
