Synopsis

A show for Fanboys by Fanboys. Set in uber-geek Kevin Smith's iconic comic shop Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash, the show explores every nook and cranny of Fanboy culture from A to Z. Endless circular debates about the technical accuracy of the USS Enterprise's warp-core schematics? Snarky comic aficionados with an encyclopedic knowledge of every Marvel back issue? You bet.

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Icarus Alexander That's what this should be called. A fun look at all things nerdy. Walt's and Mike's knowledge of comic books is impressive. Ming's passion and Bryan's wit makes this a great foursome. The guests are a blast and surprised to see all the raps stars into comic books like Method Man and Run DMC. When will Kevin Smith write and direct a comic book movie?
Joe Spencer Let me start out by saying that I know the buyers/sellers are set up in advance, and that's part of the show. That being said, the interaction between employees and customers is pretty spot on for a Jersey comic book store.As a teenager growing up in central NJ, I worked at a comic book store named "That Hobby Place" (South Amboy, NJ). It was a teen boy's dream job. During the summer months, I spent all day reading comic books, playing games, and discussing my favorite movies (i.e. Star Wars) with almost every customer who walked through the door! On weekends, the boss Gary would take me and a buddy to comic/sci-fi conventions so we could make some extra cash for the store and get autographs (to sell at the store, of course!) from our favorite stars.When I watch Comic Book Men, it gives me warm fuzzies as I see these guys doing EXACTLY the kind of stuff we did...pranking each other, the banter, and almost getting into arguments over what super hero would kick who's butt.This show is good fun for anyone who grew up reading comic books, watching Star Wars, or otherwise entertained by the fan side of pop culture. Kudos to Kevin Smith and team for creating a show that brings me back to my teenage years, and allowing me to look at the perplexed look on my wife's face and say, "See??? Told you I'm not the only person who does/thinks that!!!!"
Julia Rosendahl For sure I am a true Kevin Smith fan, and I think that his genius shows through even in this media. He has made some great movies, an awesome pod-cast so why not kick ass in the TV media? and I must say he and the other cast does it very well.References are flying left to right and the all speak from the heart. They get all hot and bothered when they speak about comics/heroes/toys, they relay the feeling all we nerds across the world has felt many times over when sifting through this weeks comic book releases or when we finally got our hands on that collectible to we lost or never got somewhere in our childhood.I love that they use clips from "The Stash" with real customers, everything from the nut-case- geek to the politically correct mom that despise everyone that can give their little child a cat woman doll. And the spontaneous conversations that just nerds get, like which Spiderman costume did you think was best? etc. etc.So, to sum up. If you love comics, heroes, collectibles, sci-fi you should definitely check this show out. I'm a computer programmer by trade and I would give up my job in a heartbeat to get to work in Comic book store like that. So this is the next best thing.
Cult-Stitch I'm a nerd. Used to read comics every day, still love hearing about the characters and the stuff out there. Who the heck thought this was a good format? I didn't come here to see Kevin Smith and whoever the heck is talking on a radio show breaking in every 45 seconds when something interesting comes up. I want to see the crap they find, the crap people bring in and not this The View dork sewing circle crap. Just because Kevin Smith knows about comics and has a comic shop does it justify a format like this. If Smith needs to have a show like this so badly, go and run the store if he needs to justify being on camera. I stopped 20 minutes in and won't come back, it's not worth the time.
