It was only saturday. I thought you were also suppose to get a free hulk heroclix figure on FCBD? I didn't.

Voltron 05-07-2003 06:25 PM

WHAT? FREE COMICS AND I DIDN'T KNOW?! Some one want to fill me in on this thing so I can be prepared next time?

cqb101 05-07-2003 06:28 PM

It happens once a year. You go to your local comic shop and get free comics.

Our main comic shop here sucks. The owner refuses to give ANYTHING away, so we won't be seeing FCBD any time soon. She also refuses to cary TMNT :cry: .

Tokka-B 05-07-2003 06:51 PM

That sounds pretty dumb. You mean even if you ask her to order it for you to buy, she wouldn't get them?

Actually, a lot of the people who work at comic book shops can be real assholes.

That's even more stupid becuase

1. The comic books say FCBD all over them.

2. They don't have to pay anything for the comics.

That's one of the reason I quit buying comics back in 7th grade. The jerks that run those places will just BS customers on a lot of things.

cqb101 05-08-2003 11:14 AM

So what about that free hulk heroclix?

The Defibrillator 05-08-2003 11:20 AM

darn, free comic books and I didn't know about it.

next time, tell everybody in advance! :)

Nope. She only had one TMNT comic left last winter, collected book 5. she hates me cause I proved her wrong in some stupid DBZ card game ruling... then again in pokemon, and again in magic. really, she needs to read the rule books :lol:.

This whole Free Comic Book Day is stupid. They're just issues of comics that you can get for a dollar in the regular bins. And the paper is crappy, old newsprint. And it has "FREE COMIC BOOK" plastered on the cover, ruining any chance at collector's value. I read comic books because I like them, but it would be nice to have something to fall back on when I need a college fund. And last year, the Ultimate Spider-Man #1 wasn't even the whole issue. Marvel released two types of issue number 1, a long preview copy, and the real one. They gave out the crappy half issue.

Too bad they didn't just have free range on free comics. You know what I mean, for about 5 hours, all comics are free. Without the "FCB" logo. That'll never happen unless you have a ski mask or a beretta.

Apparently there are at least 8 people here who disagree :roll: Obviously they're not giving out really valuable books. But I like my Maharaja Donald... Classic.
