A FREE DAY OF FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Worldwide Free Comic Book Day Comes to Ferndale with Comics for All Ages!

Detroit Comics in Ferndale, MI is one of thousands of comic book shops around the world celebrating the comic book art form on Saturday, May 1st.

On Free Comic Book Day, over two million comic books will be given away by participating stores, introducing as many people as possible to the wonders of comic books!

"The wide array of comic books being published today ensures that readers of all ages

— children, teens, and adults –

can find something appropriate that will stir their imaginations,"

said Lori Kelly, owner of Detroit Comics.

Now in its eighth year, Free Comic Book Day has proven to be a smashing success, spreading the word that comics are terrific reading. "Even if you have never picked up a comic book, stop into Detroit Comics, because you never know what you will end up finding.

We will have independent creator Jeffrey Brown of Unlikely and Clumsy as well as facepainting for the kids."

"We at Detroit Comics want to spread the word

that comics are alive and well in 2010," Kelly continued.

"Comic books and graphic novels are considered hip, hot and smart." Comic Books have propelled to the front ranks of pop culture, many being adapted into movies.

Iron Man 2 is being released on May 7th and is expected to be highly anticipated after Free Comic Book Day.

"The first weekend of May is going to be a big day in the comic book world."
