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 2, 2015, from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. at Blastoff ComicsFest at The Federal Bar in North Hollywood, 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 and Sam Rhodes will be on hand all day at the first-ever Blastoff ComicsFest (launched by comic book retailer Blastoff Comics in conjunction with Knitting Factory Entertainment) with copies of Fanboy Comics‘ books and graphic novels, Fearworms: Selected Poems, Penguins vs. Possums, Something Animal, Identity Thief, and The Arcs. In addition, FBC will be selling prints, t-shirts, PVP Mini action figures, and more!
In addition, the FBC crew will be hosting a slew of talented LA-area creators throughout the day, who will be providing free sketches for attendees. A full list of the creators and their scheduled signing times are listed below.
