FCBD 2014

Free Comic Book Day was last Saturday and it was a blast. We visited two local comic book stores and got quite more than a few freebies with my favorites being the following:

2000 AD Special                            Archie Digest #1                           CBLDF: Defend Comics

2000AD                    Archie                    STK634409_TN

There were many more great comic books, but these are the 3 that really stood out for me.

One of the things I enjoy the most about FCBD is getting to learn about local artists I may have not heard of and this year was no exception.

A gentleman by the name of Josh Kirby had a table set up in our first stop of the day, Gotham City Comics (https://www.facebook.com/gothamcitycomics). He was very polite and not pushy about buying his artwork (which are always two major plusses for me). He has a unique art style that I absolutely love. His very interesting take on well known characters is fun and crazy and I made sure to buy a print from him to add to my ever growing collection.

He has his own comic creation called Rebel Girl that he is currently working on and you can learn more about it at http://www.therebelscomic.com.

Definitely check this guy out because you will not be disappointed.

Another FCBD has come and gone and I cannot wait until the 2015 edition!
