As many might have known, the first Saturday in May is 'Free Comic Book Day'. For the past 15 years, it's allowed me to do fun stuff like help introduce (or re-introduce) folks to comics. This year was no different. Some of the free titles were nice all-ages/kid-friendly books like Sonic, SpongeBob and Pokemon - books I picked up for my nephews which they seems to have really dug.

For myself, I snagged a copy of Otis Frampton's 'Oddly Normal' (a book I've been meaning to get into for quite some time now) and a copy of the latest incarnation of 'Rom, The Space Knight'. Another thing I do is I make it a point to buy from the shops I hit up for FCBD titles. After all, that's part of the reason the day was invented - to get butts back into stores and entice folks who might otherwise not drop in to come shop for a bit. I went overboard a bit and picked up the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl comics I was missing.

You might be wondering why I'm not going on about the comics like I normally would. Well... I haven't been able to get to them yet. They sit waiting for later (and probably tomorrow) for me to burn through them like I always do. = )

Now to pop out, grab some grub and maybe read some comics while I do so.

'Till next time! = )
