For me, this year was the fifth Free Comic Book Day I’d been to, however for the people I went with, this was their first time. My four friends had all never been before, so I gave them the tour, and it didn’t exactly turn out as I expected.

All Star Comics
Classic Comics

As I did last year, last week I went to Free Comic Book Day with Magdon (my brother), and even though we didn’t really have much time this year, I think we got an even better set of stuff than ever before.
So, yesterday was Free Comic Book Day, so I ventured into the city with a friend to see what free comics we could lay our hands on, and we were not disappointed. Continue Reading
So, last week I went to Supanova, a big pop culture expo sort of like Comic Con, with a few of my friends. We spent the whole day there and it was great fun getting to see and experience the geeky pop culture of it all. Continue Reading
