Hey, kids! So if you didn't know, last weekend was Free Comic Book Day, and below you can see I got myself a nice haul without taking every single comic that the shop could hold. I just wanted to show these off for a second, because I know there are a lot of people who got these comics and have read them, but they're now just sitting on them. When you're done with comic books that you know you're not going to collect or read again, please, pass them on to kids! Get them involved with reading through a medium that's far more digestible and entertaining than a lot of the angsty teen novels we're seeing these days. Below we've got two weeks worth of events for you to check out while I go pass these out to people on this windy weekend.
