Free Comic Book Day 2017 is coming soon!



We're only 5 weeks away from the biggest comic book event of the year, Free Comic Book Day! We will have a selection of free comics available to readers on that day. In addition we will have an incredible list of guests who will be here from noon until 2pm to chat with fans, sign books, and help us make this the best Free Comic Book Day ever!

He is also both artist and writer of The Black Beetle, the pulp-inspired hero series that will be returning from Dark Horse in the not-too-distant future.
