“We are extremely excited about the quality and diversity of all 50 free comics that will provide comic book fans a great opportunity to read original and revamped stories for free, which in turn can open up a diverse world of comics to them as they read these stories for the first time,” said FCBD Spokesperson Deborah Moreland. “The titles offered this year are great for readers of all ages, so there’s something everyone can enjoy. We are sure fans and retailers will be pleased with the line-up and we look forward to hearing about and seeing their Free Comic Book Day experiences.”
