My FCBD on the Left Coast

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

This past Saturday was the 10th annual Free Comic Book Day, so I hope you took some time out of your weekend to visit your Local Comic Book Store to grab a few free goodies (or maybe even throw a few dollars their way). I wasn’t anywhere local this weekend, so I ended up settling for what San Francisco had to offer, which wasn’t so much settling since I got to visit the very famous, the very esteemed, the very awesome Isotope Comics.

The view when you walk in. Those guys in the middle are looking through the quarter bins.

Free Comic Book (SNIKT!)

Monday, May 4th, 2009

Hey, all!  Hope you listened to Hugh Jackman and went to your local comic book shop this past weekend for Free Comic Book Day!

Oh, and only the comic books were free.  There is no Free Comic Book Movie event.  You all have to PAY to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine.  Sorry, guys.  See, we don’t advocate piracy here!

In other news, Free Comic Book Day was an overall success, with sales up as much as 39% at some stores, while others reported at least double the amount of people as last year.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Nonfiction Comics blog, already in progress.
