Free Comic Book Day 2016: Comics

FREE COMICS

There are 50 free titles available on Free Comic Book Day, including fan-favourites and new comic book characters that encourage readers to explore the fun and excitement that comics have to offer. There’s a free comic for everyone’s taste from superheroes to action/adventure and all-ages titles.

So that everyone can enjoy some great free-reading, there is a limit of three free comics per person (maximum six free comics per family). These will all be on a first-come-first-served basis while stocks last – they are usually all gone by the end of the day, so make sure you don’t arrive too late.
