There's a store called Midtown Comics on 40th Street and 7th Avenue. They have a decent selection of collectibles and comics. There are other stores in the area too, but I can't remember their names (I'm not a huge collector).
Hope you enjoy your trip to our great city grin

Midtown Comics is great. There is also Forbidden Planet down around 14th Street near Union Square. They have a good selection as well.

Bonjour!

I always loved New York for it's comic shops, there were plenty last time I went.
As above, Midtown Comics ( http://www.midtowncomics.com/ ) and Forbidden Planet ( http://www.fpnyc.com/ ) are the big two, but if you are at Union Square to visit FP anyways, you will be close to St Mark's Comics as well, which has comics, toys, figures etc.

St. Marks Comics
11 St. Mark’s Place in the East Village
http://www.stmarkscomics.com/

Below are some more comic places I have found, not visited them all tbh -

Cosmic Comics
10 E23rd St., New York City, NY 10010
http://www.cosmiccomics.com/v2/

Jim Hanley's Universe
4 W 33rd St, New York, NY 10001
http://www.jhuniverse.com/

Hope you enjoy NY! I love the place, and will get back there some time soon grin

Kris ... we had a meet at weekend and I said to those attending ... FF-UK North invades NYC? A few seem interested. We won't leave as much as mess as the Cloverfield monster, promise wink
If there aren't any Celebrations on next year, I'll definitely do NYC in 2009 with or without my FF buddies tho happy
