Now open 10-8 everyday so it's even better. TE is always keeping things interesting and they've really seemed to expand the japanese section as well as a large variety of snacks and drinks. Great place to pick up a gently used iPod, classic comics, original comic art and specialty toys. I have been shopping here for thirty+ years and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon. read more

Despite the fact that this place is cluttered and crowded, you won't blame them when you find everything you need and then some! This place is chock full of everything from used DVDs to PS2 items to comic books, at a very low price. If you don't like Internet shopping like on eBay, this is a good first start. Back before Doctor Who really blew up here in America as of late, it was really hard for me to find any Doctor Who merchandise, but of course That's E had it! The staff is extremely helpful and pleasant, you can tell they're really knowledgeable about the items they're selling in store. read more

Easily my favorite store in not just Worcester, but the entire state of Massachusetts. I love this store. I stop in every paycheck to pick up comics but its so difficult not to leave with more than that. As a comic book/movie/music/TV/sports/wrestling/toy/video game/soda nerd (did I miss anything?), this place is perfect for me. The staff is all very friendly and knowledgable. I love chatting with them and consider many of them to be my friends. Like the finest sitcoms, I cant think of a better group of people assembled together in one place. Always helpful and never annoyed with all my requests. Thanks guys! The warehouse aspect is also amazing. I always notice something that I've never noticed before. I love walking up and down the aisles trying to take everything in. Its nearly impossible and always exciting. I always remember something I forgot to look for after I leave because theres so much great stuff to look at. Its become a ritual for me to come here on my day off every week but if I could, I would come in every day. One of the finest hours of my week are when I drive over to Lois Lane and hear that bell ring as I open the door to That's Entertainment. I hope that never changes read more

Simply put, the largest comic book store in New England; if you like comics (new or old), you MUST come here. However, this store also has things to offer us other geeks, too. The new RPG section is mostly 4th Edition D&D, but they have a treasure trove of used RPG books at good prices. CCG players can find a good selection of Magic cards, including some premium individual cards. There's a decent used video game selection, as well as DVDs (including anime), and sports memorabilia. Out of all gamer types, (hobby) board gamers may come up a bit short here; there's a decent variety, but the section feels small compared to the rest of the store (though a few vintage ones, mostly comic/TV/movie/video-game related, can often be found throughout the store). Finally, there are a lot of comic, otaku, and gamer-related geekery, like action figures, anime statues, plushes, t-shirts, posters, Japanese snacks, etc. Basically, a Mecca for comic book fans, but definitely enough stuff to keep gamers and others interested as well. read more

If you are into comics, comic memorabilia, video game, and sports memorabilia there is more then enough here to keep you occupied for hours. There are vintage toys and puzzles, basically all those things you had as a kid you can find here too. Great place to spend a few hours on a rainy day or for the serious collector a chance to find those hidden treasures. read more

That's Entertainment - Comic Books Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

I've been shopping here since the 90s great place to sell stuff and get some new stuff for your collection... every time I go in there's something cool and new that I didn't know existed... prices are great. Love that they have expanded on gaming in recent years! read more

Expect the unexpected! This store is known to have a wide selection of comic books not only in Worcester but perhaps all of New England. You can find new and used comics at a very cheap and reasonable price. They are also known to have tons of "old school" video games and console such as Colleco, Atari, NES, SNES, Dreamcast, etc. at a very cheap price. If you're a video game fan like I am then this is the place where you can reminisce about games like NES Duck Tales, SNES Chrono Trigger, Pole Position for the Atari, etc. The store also sells other misc. items like Japanese blind boxes, Japanese toys, Trading card games like Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc. This is one of my favorite stores to visit when I'm back in Worcester and a definite stop to find something you're not even looking for. read more

This is pretty much the standard I measure any other retro-game stores on, and for good reason. Great selection of games from Atari to PS3, including imports, obscurities, and accessories/clone systems. Prices are reasonable. Expect to pay more for rare stuff, but you're not going to get gouged. Prices on common/obscure games are pretty consistently good. If you're into comics, vinyl, sports memorabilia or old kitschy toys, this store can easily suck up an afternoon of browsing. Don't come here if you're in a hurry, but do come here if you're looking for something cool. read more

Great comic book-themed store with a little mix of all things geeky/nerdy, ranging from models to video games to toys. Definitely a place you want to check out if any of the above interests you. read more

Only been there once, but whenever I find myself in the area, I WILL return. The selection is beyond compare. It's not my local comic store, so I didn't pay much attention to their selection of new titles or what they offer as far as "subscriptions". What I do know: the store is huge, they have a nice selection of markdown graphic novels (some really good stuff in there), a great selection of back issues (looking for obscure Vertigo miniseries from the early 90's by then-unknown, now-stars, that have never been collected in trade? They probably have it! and a sizeable assortment of used DVD's and video games as well (though the prices of the DVD's didn't impress). This place has a bit of everything that is geekdom (and more than just "a bit" in most areas!) read more

Very disappointed. Hall of comics in Southborough, is neater and better organized than That's Entertainment (T.E.). Most importantly Hall of Comics seems to value their customers, and That's Entertainment clearly does not. I have been going to Thats Entertainment with my teenage son for a while now. There is one employee there who is typically fairly rude (a black beard) which can make the experience fairly unpleasant. The final straw was that, one eve we called and told this employee that we had been customers for several years and had spent many hundreds of dollars there. We stated that we were on the way there - after driving for 1/2 hour - to get a particular book, but we were approximately 4 minutes away and they closed in 3 minutes (we were possibly going to be 60 - 90 seconds late!). We asked if he would please bring this book to the register and we could pay the exact amount In cash and be in and out in moments. This individual stated that he would lock the door EXACTLY at 8pm and would not wait 60 seconds for us because he "did not want to pay the staff overtime" (!) I again explained our multi-year relationship with the store and reminded him (very nicely/politely), that we were talking about one extra minute (literally). I had assumed he must have misunderstood me the first time. Didn't matter, he said he would "not wait one extra second". Sure enough, when we arrived 60 seconds after closing time, the doors were locked. They were, of course still inside, but would not even look up at us through the glass door! The store is sorta bearable for a few minutes anyway. The biggest problem is that they don't care about their customers at all. If this is how they treat (previously) loyal customers, can't imagine how they treat others. Save your time and go to Hall of Comics instead. read more

A true comic book store. Most of the store (its a large store too) is dedicated to comics from vintage to recent releases. (Including manga, graphic novels, and even local artists) Then of course there is the toys and collectables that litter the store everywhere. They have enough stock to rotate things in and out, so checking back is always different. Finally, they have a modest used video game, movies, and records sections. Frequent boardgame and heroclix meet-ups ensure constant activity at the place. The staff is very helpful and friendly. read more

Hands down my favorite store. I try to make it in every week or other week because they get new stuff in every day and you never know what they find. From movies to video games to comics to figures they have an amazing variety and everyone who works there is awesome and extremely nice. Decent prices. Some items can be on the pricier side but they're worth the money. And because of this store I found myself having a Funko pop problem. And I keep going back to buy more read more

That's Entertainment is such a funny name for this store....The name makes me think of old timey dance and music shows from the 40's, maybe because there is a PBS documentary on that subject by the same name, but regardless That's Entertainment the store is a fun place to browse around in. The entry has display cases with vintage toys on display. I went on a sunday (just by chance) and got to see a Magic the Gathering tournament right before my very eyes! Aisles and aisles of comic books, action figures (including KISS!), vintage magazines, movie stills, board games, video games, dvds, posters, the list goes on and on. I got an Iron Maiden poster for $10! Also a vintage metal magazine from the 80's called Metal Rendezvous for $3, too cool! I almost bought a signed photo of Dallas era Larry Hagman, just because I could. In addition to the tax free weekend, That's Entertainment threw an extra 15% off everything in the store! Now "That's Value!" read more

This store doesn't give you an estimate because they want to rip you off and waste your time , I waited over an hour and Lindsay wanted to give me less than half of what I paid in my merchandise. Don't go and sell here these people are a waste of time and just want to take advantage of customers . read more

Really cool place....huge comics collection, geeky/nerdy memorabilia (hell, I saw Star Trek DS9's Odo on a plate and in a good condition!), and lots of vintage games to take a look at. There are also vinyl records to check out, DVDs (anime included), old school board games, ...yes there's just a lot to look at! I spot some 8-track tapes existing too...who still uses that nowadays?! You could spend hours in there looking around for a while, and hemming and hawing on that item you want to buy. Of course you'll be hit by the funky odor from some items, but that's not an issue really. It's just how it is from things of old age! There's definitely a lot of things to look even for those who are not into the comic/sci-fi stuff. I recommend checking this place out! Who knew I would find something actually awesome in Worcester.. read more

I've been buying comics for over 25 years (yikes!), and this is by far my favorite shop. I could easily spend an entire day just browsing their massive collection. Whenever I'm looking for a rarer item, they are typically my first, last, and only stop. Part of me wishes they were a bit closer to where I live, although my wife (and wallet) are happy with the distance. read more

5 stars also, sure, its the holiday season and whatnot. speaking of which...do you have a nerd in your family or are you a nerd? do you find yourself wondering where all the nerds hang out when the sun goes down? can you name the entire class of the justice league? well then my nerds, you can find what youre looking for right here at thats entertainment. now i sure as hell should have been paid in zelda belt buckles for that last paragraph, but im not a paid endorser. in fact, i dont think they are going around telling their clientele that they are in fact nerds, but lets call a cardflopper what they really are, shall we? its very overwhelming once you come in, but the staff is friendly, the inventory is vast and the smell wasnt as pungent as it was only a monday morning and not a friday night magic tournament, so keep both those fun facts near and dear to yourself and i think youll have a grand old time here. sorry to see worcester is about 30 years behind the curve, but thats a good thing as this could have been a dunkin donuts if it had been a boston. w00t! oh and #420!!!!!! read more

One of my favorite places in the world. Once you walk in through the hallway, your eyes go crazy taking in all the great stuff that's in here. Great collections of new items and old, presented with affection for the subject matter. The people who work here are really what sets this place apart: funny, friendly, helpful, and professional. If you have any "nerdy" hobbies, especially if you're into comic books, action figures, and sports collectibles, you need to pay a visit! read more

The great part about this shop is that they buy used games, got rid of my PS2 games here and looking to unload my PS3 games soon. A great big comic book store compared to their Leominster location, take any selection of anything, multiply by 10, and that is the volume of this store. Luckily your close to my work.... where they think I'm an adult who doesn't read comic books :D read more

That's Entertainment - Comic Books Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

This place is amazing! From comics to video games to board games to anime to sports memorabilia...you name it, this place has something for everyone and their "nerdy" fan desires. I love That's Entertainment! Hands down my favorite store in Worcester read more

Wow..this place is packed with so much .Aisles and aisles of comic books new and back issues , graphic novels, toys, transformers, sports cards , music records and cds. So nostalgic seeing merchandise from your childhood .Really a cool place to check out .Kids will love this place , my daughter sure did. read more

One of Worcester's many hidden gems. That's E is a phenomenal place to browse, whether you're looking for comic books, video games, works by local artists, memorabilia, etc. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They also maintain a Facebook page featuring frequent updates to their stock, as well as Q&As from patrons. Their used and discount graphic novel selection is a perfect place for fleshing out a comic collection, whether you're new to the genre or a devoted fan. The used stock is continually replenished and always holds a nice find. Their discount nights are a nice touch--Military Mondays and Ladies' Night (guys can come in drag) on Tuesday. The one downside is that they have a no food/drinks/bags policy within the store, but they have a place you can leave them by the register. It is definitely an understandable policy when you consider how many collectors' items they have out in the store. read more

One of the few places registered with wizards of the coast for Friday Night Magic in Worcester. Looks small from the outside but is surprisingly large once you step in (which I recommend you do) read more

That's E is hands-down my favorite place to visit in Worcester. Admittedly, I'm an old-school nerd, but I have been going there for over 20 years and have taken a variety of people there, and it seems like everyone who goes in there finds something they are interested in. Probably the best selection of retro-game platforms and games in the whole state. Great comics section, pretty much all currently issues from the big publishers as expected, but also a really great selection of Indy, small publisher, local artist, alternative, vintage, and out-of-print comics and comic art books. The RPG and games selection has declined in recent years, but this is probably more due to lack of demand. Still a pretty decent selection of older RPG books there, and a fair (but not fantastic) selection of table-top games. I'm not into sports memorabilia, but they appear to have a pretty good collection also. Then there is just the random stuff, everywhere. Action figures, T-shirts, books, retro toys from the 70s/80s/90s, anime, and so on. I could spend hours there (and have!) read more

There is no store like it in the area. Comics, movies, video games, board games, albums, and more! The staff is large and has a wide knowledge base, and they are always willing to answer your questions. If by chance they don't have what you're looking for in stock they can most likely order it for you. In addition they run a wide variety of events in the store! This is one of my favorite spots in the city, check it out! read more

Fantastic store. I go here for board games and comics, but they have a bunch of other stuff that I would also affectionately qualify as "nerd culture." Great customer service and the cheapest prices you'll find outside of the Internet, too. read more

I love this place. Im a comic book freak and I absolutely love that I can just come here and find everything that im looking for. There store credit for game trades are good too. Staffs always real nice and open to help you with anything on point. Awesome hobby store. :) read more

That's Entertainment - Comic Books Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

See all

Overall this store has plenty of variety to offer many types of fans, from comics, toys, music, board games and much, much more. The outside is misleading, as the store itself is quite large and holds a multitude of stock. Although the amount of product is impressive, the organization and presentation is lacking. Unlike other comic stores I've visited, the gaming rooms are separate, which allows customers to browse while not disturbing ongoing events. One of the downfalls of this business is it's location on a busy street. The storefront facing the sidewalk is inviting, however, finding parking on a weekend is nearly impossible, as parking is limited to a small alleyway on the side of the store. The employees are extremely welcoming and friendly. They are all passionate about their respective fandoms and are very helpful in assisting customers. They certainly make it a pleasure to shop here. read more

This is one of my favorite places to go to when I'm in worcester. The whole store is like an organized warehouse full of comics, trading cards, action figures and so many other things I can't even think of right now. The staff are always friendly and helpful and you can find any thing here. If your looking for an out of print or rare comic they will most certainly have what your looking for. I in the past have asked for the most random things and surprisingly they have had what I was looking for many times. Also there is alot of sports memrobeleia and autographs. Even thought the autos are very expensive they are fun to just look at. So if your a trading card or a comic book person this is the absolute place for you. read more

This is place is dangerous! I'll go in with friends "just to browse" and leave after spending way too much money. There's just too many cool things in there; movies, video games, alt-comics, collectibles, vinyl, etc. Your inner child will lay down and thrash on the floor, kick it legs and throw a tantrum if you try to leave without buying something. Also if you ever feel the need to dole out justice, you can leave That's Entertainment armed with Captain America's Shield and Thor's hammer. read more

Wow! What a store! Whether it's new comics, back issues (into the 40s), or other pop culture collectables, this store cannot be beat. The manager and staff are knowledgeable, polite and most of all, helpful-they can't do enough for you. I travel a good deal around the country and have been in new comic shops and memorabilia stores but never one exactly like this-they have it all... In addition, the store has a nice section of sports cards, autographs and memorabilia esp. heavy on Boston teams. Can't say enough good things about That's Entertainment-it can't be beat! read more

I love this place, customer service is great and i can buy comic books and video games. They have everything here :)

Great place to pick up Magic cards and tabletop games! Role-playing books are regularly cheaper than Amazon.

I always come here first when I am looking for something out of the ordinary. So far I have been able to find most of things I am looking for. The staff are usually helpful and they have a huge selection of comic books, used role playing books, used DVD and Blu-ray. They also have a really good selection of table top games, the kind not made by milton bradly. All and all a good place to stop by if you are looking for that niche gift for that friend who has everything. read more

By far the best place with employees that care, listen, and happy to help you at all times...truly a pillar in the community...love coming to the store and bringing my kids...they always find 1-20 things that they want to bring home...been goin here since 1988 at the chandler at location...owner was always inviting and eager to help even if we were just looking. Goin in today to find something for my daughters birthday! read more

Awesome selection of used books. I found few amazing graphic novels for little money! Definitely coming back to scavenger more soon :D

It's a museum! Yiu literally need to set aside time to take a look around this gen. I'm out visiting from California and I found this awesome comic book shop. Extremely friendly staff, 80's toys, games, movies. It's sounds wierd but even the smell is amazing. Walking in almost feels like opening an old comic. I loved it. read more

While not too interested in comics, they Have a ton of used vintage consoles as well as modern-(ish) (Xbox 360, PS3). They also have a lot of used games that are organized alphabetically and are priced very well. read more

Biggest and best comic book shop in New England, perhaps the entire east coast. Nice enough staff, amazing back issue selection ( the main reason I go to comic book shops outside of the one I usually buy my books at), tons of random shit everywhere. Amazing! read more
