Roots Run Deep

Tardy's Collectors Corner first opened its doors in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in 1979, under the watchful eyes of Kirby and Deb Tardy. Their passion for comics and community built a legacy that spanned decades and multiple locations.

More than Comics

For 36 years, Kirby and Deb weren't just selling comics – they were fostering a love for the entire pop culture universe. They inspired generations of fans, sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm with every customer who walked through the door.

Passing the Torch

In 2015, we (Gavin and DeAnna) were honored to take the reins at Tardy's. We're committed to preserving the old-school comic shop vibe while expanding the collection to include even more treasures. From vintage action figures to the latest Funko Pops, we've got something for every fandom.
