Kountry Komics started off as a snide comment made by my mother about the large numbers of comic book boxes I had in my bedroom. The comment was "Why don't you start a comic book store to sell all of these, you could do it in the barn and call it Country Comics." Well this stuck with me in the back of my head over the years.

In 1996 I joined the United States Air Force, and got stationed at the Minot Air Force Base near Minot, North Dakota. In 1998 I met my wife and her two children. When I got out of the military in 2000 we decided to make Minot our home. After working a number of miscellaneous jobs over the next few years it was decided that it was time for us to open our own business. With my mother's comment after all these years still running through my mind and Kountry Komics was started in 2003.

Thanks to Force of Habits owner Mark Rey we were able to get started. He sub-leased us a small space at a reasonable price, however my wife had a stroke 2006, which caused problems with who could run the store and who could take care of her. So it was decided to move the store closer to home and refocus our attention to the internet and mail order sales and providing a local delivery service.

We have found that over the last year this has worked well for us by enabling us to cut overhead , in turn it allows us to pass the savings on to you, our friends and customers. If you would like more information please contact us at: kountrykomics@min.midco.net
