Hello Chums,
How was your Free Comic Book Day? Mine was great again this year. Free comics at three local stores. No fourth store like last year - Dragonfyre comics has sadly gone out of business. But once again free books, sales and costumed people. Cool.

20. That's a lot of free comics.
At 3 AM I got out of bed to do it all again. New World comics was having a 24 hour sale. From 4 to 5 AM (Sunday) the deals were real. When I arrived I was amazed by the amount of cars in the parking lot. The store was full of people. The turnout HUGE. The graphic novel selection looked noticeably thinner than when I was there at 10 AM. I picked up numerous books and comics at very steep discounts. Now that's a great end to Free Comic Book Day!
It's time to start reading.
