Sat., May 5, is Free Comic Book Day.

Free Comic Book Day is exactly what it sounds like — a day where you can waltz into a participating comics store and pick up a free comic book! Find a location near you and plan a visit for tomorrow.

May 1 is Free Comic Book Day.

This is a new one on me, but apparently it's been going on for a while for those who are more in the know. Saturday, May 1, is Free Comic Book Day, where comic book shops around the world will be having giveaways and signing events.

Seattle's portion of this event takes place at Fantagraphics down in Georgetown, but there's stuff happening all over, so find a participating store near you.
