What is a free comic book day?
Free comics Day is the day when the comic book stores participate are giving away some comic problems to their patrons. This event is headed by comics industry in North America, although shops around the world are welcome to participate and tend to attract much attention of the media. According to tradition, the event will appear on the first Saturday in May after a significant comic or superhero film was released. He was supposed to promote comic books to new readers and at the same time encourage old readers to return to the genre, and also thank long -term comic consumers. The event is organized annually by Diamond Comic Distributors, the main distributor of the comic book in North America, which coordinates with the publishers to offer selected comics for very low costs for shop owners.
t give comics away free of charge is feasible. Participated shops generally agree to the transport of at least 10 designated comics, while other titles are available for those who want them, including special editions producedH specially for the event. Some store owners also decide to discount other goods for customers who come on comics on the day of free.
The principles of a free comic book day differ. Some shops give only one comic book a customer, while others allow customers to select several comic books offered. Not all comic books are also involved, and people who are interested should ask their local independent bookseller or comic book trade if they participate. Shops that are not planned to participate could change their mind if they feel sufficient public interest.
Some critics have pointed out that this event focuses primarily on the output of the main comicuspolence of the book, rather than a smaller, independent publishing house. However, we hope that once people start reading comics and attend comic book stores, they will be interested in offers from lesser -known publishers and AUTory, which will make comic books promotion for all kinds of comics, not only publishers like Marvel and DC products. Many smaller publishers and distributors cannot afford to offer their products at low costs, which is financially impractical for them.
