Libraries and comic book dealers across not just the US but the world over, are participating in the largest events of the year Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) and don’t be surprised if your kids' teachers are talking about this in class and sending notices home about this amazing day. *This Saturday…...it is an annual event-always the 1st Saturday in May. ****see below for a link to complete list of titles….

For one it promotes literacy which is one of the most important assets in one's life the ability to read. And for those who read can create and imagine and hopefully write as well. *On a personal -I had an English teacher that encouraged reading to the point of anything goes including not just comics but Playboy as well. Remember they have articles. God love ya Mrs. Bear wherever you are.
