Since ‘79
Tardy’s Collectors Corner first opened in Grand Rapids, Michigan under Kirby and Deb Tardy. Through the years, the Tardys expanded to multiple store locations in the greater Grand Rapids area, but ultimately found home at the current location on Eastern Ave.
A West Michigan Staple
For 36 years, Kirby and Deb served the West Michigan community and inspired a generation of comic lovers by introducing them to the expansive genre and culture.
Continuing the Legacy
In 2015, Gavin and Deanna Willard took the reins at Tardy’s and have committed to continuing the important legacy of Tardy’s Collectors corner as a first-class comic, toy and collectible shop. The Willards have stayed true to Tardy’s roots while introducing a more expansive stock of toys and pop culture collectibles.
