Oh, I'm so jealous! I wish there was something like this in Sweden. Good luck to everyone who's going, I hope you get some amazing stuff!

Do you have to sign up for anything when you are there or just walk in grab and leave?
Every store does things a little bit differently, but I never had to sign anything.

My workplace is taking part in this; there is a table set up with the free comics (they all say free comic book day on them) and you just grab however many you want, and bring them up to the register. they still get scanned for inventory purposes, but are totally free :)

Neat thanks. I'm glad I can pick up more then one at the same store. Thought I might have to make some circles to hit some stores.

It figures, in a town w/ multiple comic shops the closest participating location is in Ontario.  :huh:  (Yeah, it's just across the river but going over the bridges would make that comic cost around $10)

And for anyone on the fence about looking into the FiM comics, they are awesome!  The first few issues can be had online for just a coupla bucks, too, give it a go!

That is so kind! Thank you, I just love this comic, and I squeed with joy when I saw they were doing a free comic again this year!
Have fun tomorrow!

I'm hitting up the local comic shop tomorrow.  We helped prep stuff last weekend when my husband and I were there for a game day.

I'm definitely going tomorrow morning. One of my comic book stores is offering a bunch of free stuff when they open at 8am (including a special Iron Man figurine for the first 100 customers, and some local businesses are giving away gift cards as well), and people were already lining up outside it at 5pm earlier today. I didn't even know people lined up for FCBD. :D
Thank you so much for the adoptable, Corona! :D

I just came back from my comic book shop. I got the Star Wars comic the website was advertising (which also has an Avatar comic on the opposite side). I also bought a newest MLP comic and a He-Man one as well. I'm sure I'll get more comics over time now that I know where a shop is locally!

I was so excited to see that Avatar shared a book with Star Wars. These are two of my favorite things! :)

My husband and I visited two comic book stores in costume today. Everybody was having such a fun time! It was awesome!

Went to my shop earlier, picked up a few! Gonna maybe go to another one later if I have time. I ordered quite a few online too, along with a handful of back issue MLP comics I'd been missing.  :nerdy:

If you can't get out to a physical store, try looking for one online. This place is already sold out, but here's the list of the all comics that are being offered, for those curious: http://www.midtowncomics.com/store/fcbd.asp

My place was giving away a random pack of 5 of them to everyone, plus 1 extra free one of your choice. I'm sure every place is doing it differently, but they will be free!

I reaaalllly wanted one of the "Action Time Buddies," but have struck out so far. Don't know what it is, but it has ponies and stars Bro the Kung-Fu Pegasus, so I have high hopes XD

For Bergamot (and anyone else) wondering what the Star Wars/Avatar comic looks like.
They're terrible ipod pictures but they work.

There's a little Captain Midnight comic in between the two comics as well (its 8 pages).
