Free Comic Book Day!!

Free Comic Book Day is Saturday, May 7th—but you can get a jump on it right now. Since we aren't a brick and mortar store, we always extend FCBD to as long as our copies hold out, to allow everyone possible to join in.

To qualify for free comics, you do need to place an order--of any size--to get your freebies. That's because, unlike a bricks and mortar store, we incur expenses shipping to you: handling, supplies and postage. So we need an order with some postage added to make this work. Buying any of the priced Vintage Comics below counts as an order; no substitutions will be made if these run out.

This year we have eight new comics and once again we've added our own “warehouse finds.” Some of these are free, the rest are bargain-priced.

Place ANY size order and choose 3 free items. Order over $50 and choose 6. Limit of one per item with each order so everyone has a chance to get these. While supply lasts, of course. If we run out of anything, we'll try and sub in something else. All the free comics are listed below. Enjoy!
