Free Comic Book Day this Saturday!!

Everyone knows that the first Saturday of May every year for these past nine years is Free Comic Book Day, right!? Well this Saturday, May 1st is everyone's favorite Saturday of the year as it's time for the annual introducing of the wonders of comic books to new fans as well as those of you who already know how fantastic comic books are! Free Comic Book Day is a national comic industry event created by Joe Field, of Flying Color Comics in Concord, California, to celebrate the fact that with the diversity of comics being produced, everyone who likes to read will find a comic practically made just for them!

Free Comic Book Day at Alternate Reality Comics, here in Las Vegas, runs from 11am-5pm, this Saturday, May 1st. No purchase is required to get a good sampling of the free comic selections being offered by the various comic publishers that participate, but for those of you who already have the comic book jones, bring a friend / loved one, and share with them (for free!) the going-to-the-comic store experience, that way you can exchange books amongst each other to read the ones you didn't get. Every person coming by Alternate Reality Comics this Saturday will get to chose four free comics from this years new selections and four free comics from backstock / or remaining free comic selections from previous years - for a total of eight free comics!! I'll also have a huge, crazy outdoor back issue sale, and although a person could just come by and get the free comics, this back issue sale may be too tough to overlook (and at prices that are so low that you'll think they were free - grin)!

It's highly possible that you'll discover some new favorite comics and or comic book creators that you were previously unfamiliar with. Free Comic Book Day is always a fun time, so I hope to see EVERYONE at Alternate Reality Comics this Saturday, May 1st from 11am-5pm!
