Free Comic Book Day is This Weekend!

I hope everyone is ready for FCBD.  Our library has our issue out and ready.  I know of one other library that is participating.  So check with your local library as another source for free comic books.  Be sure to visit the Free Comic Book Day website: http://www.freecomicbookday.com/Home/1/1/27/992

On the site, on the left hand bar, is a search box so you can put in your location and it will locate the nearest comic book store retailer so you can attend on Saturday.

Also, as I mentioned in the Amazing Spider-Man 2 post, you can see the movie Friday and attend FCBD on Saturday or do FCBD on Saturday and that afternoon or evening go see Amazing Spider-Man 2.

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Trailer

This is the only wide release movie happening this weekend.  You can see this two ways.  See it Friday before Free Comic Book Day and then on Saturday go to your local comic book store or do Free Comic Book Day on Saturday at your local comic book store and then that afternoon or evening go see Amazing Spider-Man 2.  Needless to say this weekend is for comic book fans.  Thanks to “Sony Pictures Entertainment’s” channel on YouTube for the following trailer:

Free Comic Book Day

Remember that this weekend, May 4, is Free Comic Book Day.  So you can go see Iron Man 3 on Friday night and then Saturday morning go to your participating comic book stores, book stores, and libraries for free comic books!  I hope everyone was able to get all of their stock in for the 4th.  We have ours in thanks to Prairie Dog Comics, in Wichita, for ordering them for us and we have some extra book marks, provided by Prairie Dog Comics, and graphic novel give aways for those that attend.  Our display case in the library has a display of die-cast cars that are comic book themed that people can view as well.  Have fun everyone!

Are You Ready for Free Comic Book Day

Are you ready for May 4.  That’s this year date for Free Comic Book Day.  Be sure to stop by your local comic shop, book dealer and even library that are supporting the Free Comic Book Day.  Not every book store or library is participating so check with your local library and if this is a program you would like to see in your library let the librarian know so they can be ready for 2014.  Check out the Thomas Jane video below in support of Free Comic Book Day.
