    Since my first interaction with the shop owner Chris I have always been impressed by Crestline Comics. Chris is always willing to make deals on items and is super knowledgeable about comics, pokemon, and other TCG. It's always awesome to chat with him about the latest items and to see the vast selection of various hobby items in the shops. Compared to many places, Crestline comics pricing is quite reasonable (and Chris is willing to negotiate!). It's been wonderful to have a hobby shop in my small town and after becoming a shop regular, i am so grateful to Crestline comics for allowing us to help with hosting the weekly Pokemon league. The league has allowed my family and I to find an awesome sense of community in a place where we can learn more about Pokemon and build our skills among other Pokemon fans for free/low cost. Thank you Chris & crestline comics the local Pokemon community greatly appreciates you!

    Beautiful shop, on a beautiful mountain! Spectacular customer service! The bookshelves and curio cabinets were filled with an amazing selection of comics and collectibles. The value of your visit will be found in the passion that these new small business owners have for not only comics but their community and the future of our little mountain town! Can't wait to go visit again!

    Im a local up here. This place is epic! I usually have to go down the mountain only to find nothing. My wife was even surprised i actually bought something. This place just opened up and i found the coolest stuff for prices we need up here. Walked out with one piece, spawn, and the crow. Tom and Chris were the nicest dudes and helped me with all my absurd wants. They just kept pulling out banger after banger and versions of things i didnt know existed like spider punk. The cover was so awesome i had to throw it on the stack. The shop is much bigger than i thought too with a huge selection to choose from. I had to slow myself down because i wasnt prepared to finally find stuff. Im happy and HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone local or out of town.

    I love it!!! The owners are so nice! They have an amazing selection of comics, graphic novels and even super cool statues. I'm a huge nerd and I'm soooooo glad that there's a fantastic comic book shop now right here in town. Everything is very well priced too! I bought some toys (a really cool Iron Giant toy!), comics and graphic novels and everything is very fairly priced! I'll be sure to come in every chance I get! My only negative which isn't even really much of a negative, is that I usually always work until 6PM and I wish that they were open from 12 to 7 instead of 11 to 6, that way I could stop by after work. Nonetheless, please make sure to support this shop! I'll be bringing friends and family here for sure!!

    Family fun!

The guy working talked to a couple patrons before they left, but as I was looking around, he didn't bother asking if I needed help finding anything. The staff at the comic book store in Claremont - A Shop Called Quest -are way better at helping, asking if you need anything, and like to talk about comics. Value: 0. Overpriced. I just checked my transaction history, and it was $43.53 out the door. Amazon has it for $19.

    Hello, I've been to…read morethis comic book shop a few times. I like the selection and the layout is really user friendly. I'm rather new to comic collecting and I've been trying to keep my collection growing, but because I'm new to the hobby I don't always know how things work so I try to ask questions to the workers at the stores I visit. The store has one person who is honestly kind of rude. He is an older bald white guy. I've interacted with him a few times in the past briefly but I always felt he was kinda short and rude with me in comparison to how he interacts with other guests . I thought maybe I am overthinking the interaction so I always just let it slide and kept coming back. I told my partner briefly about this and he even agreed that maybe it could be me over thinking. I went in with my partner and this time I asked a question to the cashier about comic releases and the rude guy interjected and made condescending comments about me not knowing how releases work and overall made me feel really stupid. His whole energy just makes me feel like I'm not welcome and that I'm less than because I'm new to the comic hobby. When we left the store my partner immediately was like "is that the guy that is always rude to you?" I don't think I will come back to this store again because of how rude and unprofessional that guy is. He just really lacks customer service skills.

    I have been coming here regularly for about a year now, and still stand by everything I said…read morepreviously. Very fair prices that are in line with industry standards. Good selection of the big name newer stuff, and lots of up and coming indies. Great atmosphere and just a pleasant place to look around and decide what you want to read next. I decided to bump this up to 5 stars though because the employees are so great. Mal, Miguel, Cy, and Logan are always super pleasant and friendly. They give good recommendations and are extremely helpful. I still wish they had a dollar bin. However I feel lucky to have such a nice shop near by full of great people.

We got a quick greeting at the door and then were left to fend for ourselves in the Marvel wilderness. The store is super organized and visually on point. My son made a beeline for the Spider‑Man section like it was calling his name. My daughter, who has zero interest in comics, appreciated that they also sell books, tees, Funko Pops, and other merch so she didn't have to pretend to care about Peter Parker's problems. Checkout was smooth, and the cashier immediately pitched their membership program. Totally fine, it's a one‑time fee, not a monthly situation but we're just not ready to invest in that level of comic commitment yet. Prices were reasonable: about seven bucks for most issues and one $35 comic my son proudly bought with his own money. I let him live his best life. The plot twist came a week later when he sat down to read everything... and realized he accidentally bought three copies of the same comic because the covers were different. Variant covers: 1. Newbies: 0. A tiny heads‑up from the cashier would've saved us from the accidental collector's edition starter pack. All that said, the store is clean, cool, and has the exact comic‑shop vibe you expect. We'll definitely be back, just with a little more research and maybe a checklist so we don't accidentally buy the trilogy of the same issue again. Great spot overall, just not the most newbie‑friendly. But we'll return, now slightly wiser and definitely more cautious around pretty cover art.

I was searching…read morefor a specific hardcover book that was not currently in stock, but Gene Berkman went above and beyond to help. Instead of simply telling me he didn't have it, he took the time to recommend several websites where I could find the book at a very reasonable price. Thanks to his guidance, I found exactly what I was looking for, and the deal was so good that I ended up ordering two books. Gene Berkman and Jayne Hanson clearly care about their customers and have a genuine passion for books. Their knowledge, friendliness, and willingness to help make this shop a true gem in Riverside. I highly recommend Renaissance Bookshop to anyone looking for books, music, movies, and outstanding customer service.

Parking is available across the street near the goodwill or if you can get a spot on the street. We came in and there were piles of books next to the bookshelves. The sections aren't completely labeled, but if you read enough, you can see what category the bookkeeper has placed the books in. There isn't a certain order (alphabetically or anything). You go in and you peruse what is available . The bookseller is also hanging out in the front and will let you look at the front room or the back room. We saw the children's section, science, graphic novels, AAPI, and fantasy. Their romance was scattered around the store. I did end up leaving with a book purchase. I will say it's hard to look at everything because the lights were also flickering, although there is sunlight coming in. It was quite overwhelming to look at books. Overall the prices were cheaper than a bookstore chain. It's very nice to see these stores still operating. I'd choose this over a chain any day.
