OP Comics & Games

Longtime Santa Rosa shop (formerly Outer Planes) with a big gaming floor for Magic and Pokemon, plus comics, miniatures and a tight community scene.

With more than fifteen years in Santa Rosa under the names Outer Planes and MTG Lifestyle before becoming OP Comics & Games, this shop has the kind of staying power that builds a real community. The headline feature is space — a large gaming area with comfortable seating where tournaments, league nights and casual hangouts happen throughout the week.

The card focus is squarely on Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon, supported by singles, sealed product and supplies, with comics, board games, miniatures and role-playing games filling out the rest of the floor. It is a one-stop shop for a tabletop household: someone can pick up a Magic deck while someone else flips through new comics or a miniatures kit.

Longevity shows in the staff, who reviewers describe as knowledgeable and genuinely welcoming — the store carries a strong rating across a large review base, and the recurring theme is how easy it is to feel part of the scene whether you are a veteran grinder or brand new. The event calendar is a big reason people keep coming back.

Hours are wonderfully uncomplicated: open every single day from 12PM to 8PM, which suits the after-school and after-work crowd that fills the play tables. You will find it on Cleveland Ave with its own parking. Ring 707-546-2000 to confirm which events are running, since the gaming-area schedule shifts week to week. For a community-first Santa Rosa card shop, this is a dependable pick.
