2021 Free Comic Day: Getting Ready


Free Comic Book Day is back!!!!! Last year due to covid they tried to spread it out which just made it lose its excitement, but was probably better for the comic stores because it forced people to keep coming back. Looking at the stores that would be doing it this year was a little sad because many stores had gone out of business that had done it in the past. Some comic stores are going to just quietly had out books while others and doing large events.

One of the main points of Free Comic Book Day is to let people experience all different types of comics at no cost. This allows exposure to new series that people may not have been willing to pay for previously. It also allows people with not a lot of money to get access to some geekiness. Some stores will be taking donations for extra comics past their standard limit to go towards different charities. Overall it is a great way for geeks from all backgrounds to come together and geek on the cheap. With that in mind, these comic stores are small businesses for the most part and this is like their Black Friday where they hope that by getting people in that they can make money as well. If possible please try to actually buy something at each location you visit. It's a great way to help a local business and keep the geekiness going. Most stores will also be having specials going on so it could be a great way for you to save money on that product you have been eyeing for awhile.

Below are some pictures of the comics being offered this year. Some stores will also be giving out leftovers from previous years, so make sure you are able to tell the difference. one of the easiest ways is to look for the copy right date on the comic. Most stores will be limiting how many books each person can take, so choose wisely, or do like I do and go to several different locations.





Here's a list of some of the stores in Colorado that will be taking part. If you do not see your favorite store or nothing is near you, you can go to the Free Comic Book Day site and put in your zip code to find participating stores near you.
