Free comic book day notes for everyone!

We're so excited to be back to having a FCBD event!

With the proliferation of the Delta variant and the static vaccination numbers in Salt Lake we are making some changes.

We will have the ability to reserve Free Comic Book Day books for all hold subscribers- details to come on Monday

We are doing a smaller event this year, by design, to keep crowds to a minimum and to limit clustering in the store. We will have some great sale items and some bonus free books in addition to the FCBD books for our customers who come in.

We are going to require masking in doors for the entire event for customers over age 2. This will not have exceptions.

We hope that enough vaccines will be administered by this time next year to allow us to run a full event, but we want to make sure that we are safe this year.

We are excited to see all of you next weekend! Stay safe everyone. ... See more
