Free Comic Book Day!
We've been asked how much FCBD stuff is appropriate to post here. The books are free and some of them are being partially/fully made available online by the publishers and creators. So our official modly stance on how much of it we can post is: ALL OF IT BB. Keep to seven pages per poster, in order spread the love around, but we won't be enforcing an upper limit.

But do be mindful that FCBD is a promotional effort to bring new readers into smaller shops, and that's A Good Thing.

That's terrible! I have a choice of like, four. My regular guy is putting together a FCBD pull for me, based on what he thinks I'll enjoy. I can't wait to see what I end up with.

iirc I found the gif through Google image search, while looking for something completely unrelated. Clearly it had to be iconed.

Sadness. We only have, like, three comic shops left, and none of them were doing FCBD.

I wanted to participate, but all the damn comic stores are on the other side of the river, and I had to want to go to the mall.
