It’s the most wonderful time of the year! That’s right, it’s almost time for FREE COMIC BOOK DAY! You’re invited to join Fanboy Comics and a host of other comic book creators in celebrating this special day on Saturday, May 3rd, from 11:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. at Brave New World Comics in Newhall, CA!

On the first Saturday in May each year, participating comic book shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely FREE to anyone who comes into their stores. This is a great way to bring those who may be unfamiliar with the comic book medium into the fold.

Fanboy Comics co-founders Barbra and Bryant Dillon will be on hand all day at the LA-area comic shop with copies of Fanboy Comics‘ graphic novels, Something Animal, Identity Thief, and The Arcs.  In addition, FBC will be selling exclusive Penguins vs. Possums: Volume 1 prints with a free digital copy of the entire trade paperback (which will be released in June). Fans who stop by the store will have a chance to pick up their very own signed copies and to purchase the official Fanboy Comics t-shirt, so that they can show their geek pride in style. Plus, the FBC Staffers will have a number of free items to give away to those in attendance.

In addition, the FBC crew will be hosting a slew of talented LA-area creators throughout the day, who will be signing copies of their comic books and providing free sketches for attendees.  A full list of the creators and their scheduled signing times is listed below.
