Free Comic Book Day

Any geeks in the house? Tomorrow, May 2nd,  is Free Comic Book Day. Head over to your local participating comic shops to get free issues, attend creator signings, and snag all sorts of discounts on graphic novels and other goodies.

From the website:

Free Comic Book Day is a single day – the first Saturday in May – when participating comic book shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely FREE* to anyone who comes into their stores.

Free Comic Book Day is administered by a panel representing all parts of the comic book industry: retailers, publishers, suppliers, and Diamond Comic Distributors. Each year, publishers apply to provide comic books at cost to retailers, who in turn give them away for free. Diamond handles marketing and logistics for the event, shipping comics to shops and handling marketing and PR for the event.
