What do you know
Free Comic Book Day The opportunity to be inspired by pop culture is the first Saturday of Mei Mei 3.
You can’t jump from skyscraper to skyscraper. Spinning the silky web freely is a talent that continues to escape us.
Fuck.
But we can happily fall into an incredibly inspirational world of fantasy.
Of course, this is achieved by opening a hectic comic book, layered graphic novel, or a hefty anthology of classic strips.
In fact, comic books are the most satisfying and easily accessible varieties of superpower. And knowing there is a day celebrating artists, writers and comic bookstore staff, and the dedicated fandom is just as uplifting as seeing justice and joy on the final page of a comic book.
“Free Comic Book Day” is the opportunity to make the perfect 3-point landing on the first Saturday of May.
In 2025, it is May 3rd, and the Southern California comic book shop celebrates with signatures and special appearances.
Just like past events, free comic books distributed to fans are pre-selected, so check with staff to find out more about the gift.
Finding out what’s going on in 2025 is as easy as checking in at a local store.
Golden Apple comics on Melrose Avenue captivate and bust the act of NEET all day long – creators Goldie Chan and David Pepos stop by – and “Glove Bag Instant Winner Game” is $5, showering visitors with the goodness of comic cool.
This is like a long time in a week with comic bugs. This will allow you to enjoy “Free Comic Book Day” at two locations in Manhattan Beach on May 3rd and Culver City on May 4th.
Check out all the treats and fun times that come to both spots.
Libraries, bookstores (not just focusing on comics), museums and galleries frequently take part in the fun of “free comic book day.”
Glendale’s Ace/121 Gallery is full of superhero magic, as it approaches on May 3rd thanks to the “Dr. Smash! and Ladronn Kapow! Superheroes Unmasked” exhibition. Should I know? This is the last day of enjoying the show.
And a major months-long exhibition dedicated to legendary Jack Kirby is opening at the Skyleball Cultural Center.
Your best bet? Check out what your favorite shop, museum or bookstore is brewed on the first Saturday of May.
