This is the 15th year Westfield Comics is celebrating Free Comic Book Day, offering the community, and local libraries a fun, family-oriented event where everyone can find a comic they will enjoy
Comics are perfect for today’s times. Recently comic books and graphic novels have been propelled to the front ranks of pop culture, many being adapted into popular movies and TV shows. Comics are a fun and enduring form of entertainment for readers to dive into as imagination comes to life with the turn of every page. The first Saturday of May has been and will continue being a big day in the comic book world.
In addition to Free Comics and other giveaways, both Westfield Comics locations will have local artists in attendance doing sketches with proceeds benefiting the Hero Initiative charity. Attendees are incouraged to wear costumes of their favorite characters.
