We’ve got our first look at the titles available for the grabbing on Free Comic Book Day, set as always for the first Saturday in May (in this case, May 5, 2018).
“It’s a great time to be a comics fan, and an even greater time to experience the medium of comic books for the first time during our 17th annual Free Comic Book Day,” said Joe Field, originator of the industry-boosting event and owner of Flying Colors Comics in Concord, Calif., in a press release. “The amazing line-up of titles, the great events staged by thousands of independent comic book retailers, and the enthusiasm of comic shop fans all over the world will make May 5, 2018, a great day to celebrate comic books!”
