About me: BCT is your complete comic and gaming resource headquarters. We stock a huge selection of both current and back issue comic books, trade paperback graphic novels, action figures, collectible statues, miniature war games, roleplaying games, collectible card games, family board games, trading card games, constructible strategy games, and miniatures of all types.
Books, Comics & Things is a second generation family-owned and run business located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It was originally established in 1981 as a used book store under the name Book Traders next to the Georgetown shopping center. Within two years the decision was made to expand into carrying comic books, sports cards, and games along with gently used books. Additionally, the name of the business was changed to Books, Comics & Things to reflect its new purpose and focus towards comic books and games rather than used books and sports cards, which were eventually phased out shortly thereafter.
In 1987, a second location was opened on Fort Wayne's western side in the Westland Mall. Both stores continued to thrive and soon became the leading retail stores in the area that specialized in collectible comics and games. By 1990, the Westland Mall location had outgrown its limited store capacity and moved across the street to the Time Corners shopping center where it resides today.
Currently, the company employs 10 people. Tracy Scott is the owner/manager of the Georgetown location while Judy Scott oversees the Time Corners store. Both locations passionately promote the hobbies of collecting comics and gaming and have earned a very loyal customer base throughout their twenty-five year history because of their dedicated customer service and way of doing business.
Books, Comics & Things offers the following services to our customers:

Books, Comics & Things frequently holds special events, gatherings, classes, and tounaments. Twice every year, we host free classes ..ing miniatures. We also have "mini conventions" at each store once a year to showcase our products and allow people to come in and demonstrate a wide selction of games.
Gaming tournaments are a regular part of our gaming schedule for both collectible card games and miniature games. Consult the gaming schedules for each store to see if there is a scheduled tournament this month.
We wish to thank comic book artist Don Kramer for taking time in his busy schedule to stop by for a book signing on October 7th. We had a good turnout of almost 50 people. Watch for more special appearances in the near future.
