Free Comic Book Day
Tue 2010/05/04 12:44 JST
Every year on the first Saturday in May we celebrate Free Comic Book Day - I don't know if it happens everywhere, but here in the Yamatani kingdom it's observed among the faithful at the comic book/art supply store. The owner brings in a decent illustrator and he draws your favorite character free of charge. You gets to pick out five comic books gratis - of course I spend more than I should buying other not so free goodies - like this year i got the Iron Man figure and a mag from the U.K. and another "green sticker" comic ($1) . . . anyway, here's some fotos my loot.
Yeah, we had one at our local shop but I overslept :(
musicians needs their beauty sleep . . .
my work had a decent turnout this year. We didn't carry those cool iron man figurines though. Just plenty of Iron man comics. Nice loot^^
the guy that runs the book/art store goes to Comicon (Comic Con) every year in San Diego and brings back lots of great stuff, and he gets unusual goodies just for Free Comic Book Day, he';; even special order stuff from Japan.So like he had only one of the Iron Man 2 figures and two or three other Marvel figures from the company.
i ended up missing it unfotunately orz
. . . so the Free Comic Book Day is happening down you way too, excellent!
Oh cool, saw a lot of flyers for this at the con the other weekend. Shoulda looked into it ;_;
i went down to my local store they were handing our free stuff =D
looks like U.S. and Australia are into the Day . . 8D
Was Planning to go but ended up watching ironman 2 instead ;/
you are forgiven . . . :D
