Free Comics Day!
This is such a great idea. Go to your wonderful local Comic Book Store, and browse amongst the shelves, and toys and cards, and back issues, and quarter bins and t-shirts, and trades and simply enjoy yourselves. Oh, and pick up some of the free books as well.
Let me just state for those who may not have ever entered a real live Comic Book Store. No...not ALL of the books are free...just the ones that are marked "free" on the cover. No, you cannot walk out with a $70 Starman Omnibus for nothing. This is more of a taste, a sample, a nibble...like those nice ladies at the Costco who give you little cups of cheese and kielbasa.
I managed to get my grubby mitts on the Prince Valiant book. It is quite beautiful, and has Hal Foster artwork in it, and really, what more can you ask for? There is something for everyone!

Yeah once I came out during free comic book day and he saw my hand full of change. He asked why I had to buy anything if the comics were free.
*sigh*
Free only applies to the "free" comics...but some people seem to think they can walk off with the store.
Hey, those action figures are free too...right?
