Countdown to FREE COMIC BOOK DAY!

Excitement is building for the 5th Annual FREE COMIC BOOK DAY, Saturday May 6 at a comic book specialty store near you!
Check out http://FreeComicBookDay.com for the full scoop--- including a store locator so you can find a participating store near you.

For everyone in the greater Contra Costa County area of California, Flying Colors Comics & Other Cool Stuff invites you to the great party that is FCBD. Each year, everyone on the Flying Colors Retailing Brigade is in the store to introduce new readers to the wonders of the comics' medium--- and to re-acquaint former comic readers with all the great stuff going on in today's comics.

Here's the way it works: nearly two dozen comics' publishers produce Special Edition comics to be given away on Free Comic Book Day. You show up, we give you FREE comics. It's just that simple. Sure, we hope current comics' fans will drag along their non-comics reading friends to get in on the fun. Comics are for EVERYONE--- and there's no better time to get in on the fun that FREE COMIC BOOK DAY!

FREE is a pretty good price, don't you think?


I'm also very excited to announce our Special Guest Artist for Free Comic Book Day --- BILL MORRISON, Editor and Artist for BONGO Comics!

Bill is the creator of ROSWELL, the Little Green Man, art director for the FUTURAMA animated TV series, contributor to the recent "Dan DeCarlo's JETTA" compilation, and biographer of Archie Comics' most famous artist, the late great Dan DeCarlo. Bill will be here at Flying Colors on Saturday May 6 for Free Comic Book Day, signing copies of the BONGO Comics Free-for-All!

It's always a good time here on Free Comic Book Day, so we hope you can make plans to join us! The fun starts at 11am and runs all day long!

26 days to go!!
