...And if there's anything better than free comics, it's an entire day devoted to free comics! Linda Layne reminded me earlier today that this coming Saturday, May 3rd is Free Comic Book Day. I don't know about you, but when someone mentions "free" and "comic book" in the same sentence, I get kind of excited. However, before you rush out to your local comic book shop and begin emptying their racks into a large hockey bag, you might want to take a minute or two to find out how to get ready. The above video is a good place to start, and they're currently showing it on the mediabistro site. As well, Linda gave me some excellent links to share with you. One is to the Free Comic Book Day Store Locator, while the other will get you ready to go with everything you need to know for a successful Saturday. Those interested in why we have such a thing as Free Comic Book Day will want to check out the following mini-documentary: Let us know if you have a really cool experience on Free Comic Book Day. If so, we'd love to blog about it for our readers!
