Check with your local retailer to see if they are participating in Free Comic Book Day and their policies on the free comics available. Retailers may be limiting the amount of books per person at the event, so that every person has a chance to pickup some free comics. Visit freecomicbookday.com to use the local comic shop finder for a participating store.
Your local comic book shop, as well as other local businesses in the area, have been hit hard by the pandemic and this is the perfect way to show them some support. If you are attending one of these events, please be safe for yourself and those around you. Sanitize and wear a mask, if possible, and have fun!
