Today comic book stores around the world celebrate "
Free Comic Book Day [freecomicbookday.com]", offering anyone who pays them a visit some free comic books. This year there's 50 different titles to choose from, including a reprint of Neil Gaiman's "
Lady Justice [freecomicbookday.com]" (not seen in print in nearly 25 years) and a new
Fight Club [freecomicbookday.com] story by Chuck Palahniuk.
The [freecomicbookday.com]
Marvel [freecomicbookday.com] and
D.C. universes [amazon.com] are represented, as well as
Dr. Who, [freecomicbookday.com]
The Simpsons [amazon.com], Jim Henson's
Labyrinth [freecomicbookday.com], and even something called
Steampunk Goldilocks [freecomicbookday.com]. Saturday many bookstores will also be recognizing
"Independent Bookstores Day" [washingtonpost.com] with special events, though ironically, some fans may be tempted to visit Amazon.com instead to download some
free Kindle editions [beyond-black-friday.com] of last year's free comic books.
