Built by collectors, for collectors.
From a 1,600-square-foot shop to two regional destinations.
The Inner Geek began in 2014 as a way for Jarrod Greer to help fund his and his sons' Transformers and Power Rangers collecting addiction. The original small mall comic shop grew quickly because the people behind it genuinely loved the same things their customers loved.
Today, The Inner Geek operates two substantial retail stores serving readers, families and serious collectors across the Tri-State. The stores are supported by a team of longtime employees who know the inventory, understand the hobby and enjoy helping people discover something memorable.
Catrina—The Inner Geek's first employee and now CFO—has been invaluable from the beginning and remains one of the familiar faces customers know and trust. Amanda and Lucas now help serve as prominent public faces of the stores, while the broader team keeps both locations running and constantly evolving.
Many people help The Inner Geek continue to bring amazing collections of goodies to market! Our employees are everything to us!
We actually collect.
The store began with a collecting habit, not a business-school plan. That enthusiasm still shapes what we buy and sell.
We welcome everyone.
From first-time readers to advanced collectors, our goal is to make the stores approachable and fun to explore.
Inventory never stands still.
New releases, daily collection purchases and major estate acquisitions mean there is always something different to discover.
