The first dedicated comic store in Singapore was the Comic Shop, in
Delfi Orchard c. 1983. I say dedicated because Leisurecraft was still
a games shop that incidentally sold comics. The one at Delfi didn't
last very long - couple of years at most, before Comics Mart came to
prominence.

There's an interesting thread ongoing in the Facebook group "Singapore Comics Kaki" reminiscing on the the Singapore comic shops, past and present.

Check it out here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ComicBookSGKaki/289885727877758

Incidentally, Adrian Boon who owned the first comic shop at Delfi is now a pilot with SIA.
