A new comic book store opened this holiday weekend in College Park.

Located at 4744 Cherry Hill Rd. in the Best Buy shopping plaza, Third Eye Comics is taking over the business from Big Planet Comics, which closed its College Park location.

All subscriptions and reward points from Big Planet will carry over to the new store.

“The history of comics in College Park is a rich one, and we remember ourselves personally convincing our parents to drive us as kids out to Closet of Comics to hunt down books,” owner Steve Anderson wrote.

Big Planet Comics has been at the same location in College Park, on the same block as Cornerstone Grill, for more than three decades.

This is the seventh location for Third Eye, which has its largest location in Annapolis.
