Talk about industry cooperation! Comic book stores nationwide unite for Free Comic Book Day on May 2, giving away free titles to anyone who comes in the door.
The free titles are not leftovers. Whether you're a fanboy or a comics newbie, there's something for everyone here, including Brian Michael Bendis's new take on the "Avengers," a "Cars" spin-off, "Green Lantern: Blackest Night," a reprint of the classic first issue of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and, of course, "Wolverine."
Not surprisingly, New York, the cultural capital of the country, is the Mecca of comic book stores. There are more than 40 comic shops in the five boroughs; here are a few you should check out on Saturday. Each store has its own specials and unique twists on the day, so hit more than one! And please go here for more information on events and available titles.
