That's Rentertainment

That's Rentertainment has been a fixture near the University of Illinois campus since 1993, offering students and townies alike a browsing experience that spans used books, comics, graphic novels, vinyl records, and vintage media. The store's eclectic inventory reflects the wide-ranging curiosities of a major university community, where a physics PhD student and an art history major might browse side by side. The used book selection is deep and constantly rotating, fed by the natural turnover of a college town where people are always arriving and departing. The comics and graphic novels section is comprehensive, from mainstream superhero titles to indie and alternative works that push the medium forward. The science fiction section benefits from the university's strong tradition in the genre, and the store has become a cultural landmark for Illini students who discover it as freshmen and mourn leaving it at graduation.
