About Us

Secret Headquarters is a family-owned comic book and collectables shop based in Melbourne, Victoria — built on a love of stories, creativity, and community.

Our journey began in 2012 at Berwick’s Akoonah Park Market, where we spent every Sunday sharing comics and collectables with fellow fans. In 2015, that passion grew into our very own brick-and-mortar store in Beaconsfield, where we welcomed new faces, lifelong readers, and built what quickly became our extended comic book family.

Community has always been at the heart of Secret HQ. Over the years, we’ve proudly hosted and supported countless events celebrating pop culture and local creativity — including Free Comic Book Day, Halloween ComicFest, movie premiere nights, and many more. We’re passionate about uplifting local creators and fostering a space where everyone feels welcome.

We’re an inclusive, love-driven community that celebrates reading, imagination, and all things nerdy. Whether you’re into Comic Books, Graphic Novels, Manga, Young Adult reads, pop culture collectibles, statues, toys, comic supplies, or a touch of vintage goodness — there’s something here for you.

While we had to say goodbye to our Beaconsfield storefront in May 2024, our story has come full circle. We’re back where it all began at Berwick’s Akoonah Park Market every Sunday, and we couldn’t be happier to continue serving the incredible local comic community for many years to come.

Welcome to Secret Headquarters — come for the comics, stay for the community. 💛
