eldabeDear all people living in the United States/Canada and Also Some Other Parts of the World,
THIS SATURDAY IS FREE COMIC BOOK DAY.
This means that most comic books shops, likely the one closest to you, will be giving out FREE COMIC BOOKS for the day.
Even if you're not so much a comic book person, you should totally check it out. DC and Marvel are generally pretty good about giving away at least one kid-friendly title each, as will some of the smaller publishers. SO THAT COVERS ALL OF YOU WITH CHILDREN/YOUNG FAMILY MEMBERS/NOSY KIDS NEXT DOOR.
As for the rest of you, remember, the comics are FREE. Sure, not all of them will be good. But some of them will be great. And they're all easy, free entertainment. That you can use when the internet is down! Or on public transportation! Or while in the loo/toilet/facilities/etc! How can you let an opportunity like that pass you by?
HOW I SAY. GO FORTH AND COMIC BOOK.
Love,
Me.
For more information, this is the official website, and here is a handy participating comic book store locator for the US and Canada, and here is one for the rest of the world. Two comic book stores are participating in WALES. So wherever you are, it's worth checking out.
PS There was a truly terrible comic book pun in the title. Points if you LOLed.
