A couple of weeks ago I popped up a post about a huge event in the comic book world...Free Comic Book Day! It’s always the first Saturday in May and this year is no different coming in on May the 4th. This also happens to be known amongst the geek culture as Star Wars Day! Holy Shit!!!!
Most comic shops around the globe participate and if you want to learn a bit more, check out my previous post right here:

It’s a fun day and most shops embrace the day and turn it into more than just handing out free comics to patrons. Sone have signings and sketch sessions, other vendors or crafts people, cosplayers, and/or a killer sale. We are hoping to do all that and more! Should have details for my specific shop in the coming days.
One really cool aspect is that I’m going to have 
Please consider giving it a look and throwing a smidge of love his way. Utilizing Fundition for this type of project is something we want to succeed going forward and this campaigns success could help bring others to the platform. You can assist in Bryan’s project here:

As for Free Comic Book Day, we are hoping to have our cards by then to promote Steemit as we hand them out to the swarms of rabid customers that nutty day. That is an initiative that 
These folks just don’t know about the opportunities that exist here and we hope to change that a bit with a grassroots movement of sorts. What 
For this first go at it, they are providing a $10.00 upvote for the first 100 accounts that sign up through this method...after their first post of course. That’s a nice $1000 bucks in upvotes that could potentially entice some new users to see what the hoopla is all about here. That along with throwing me some tasty support and upvotes to help offset the cost of the card printings have all been a tremendous help.
I plan to pass these out at various packed comic conventions and pop culture events throughout the states over the next 6 months. Hoping for some positive results from this that could lead to exciting new avenues. Also hoping this works as it will showcase that it’s possible to attract new targeted users through these means.
But back to FCBD...I was able to dig out the other cool promo items that select shops will be handing out for FREE!!! These items deal with gaming and are from Wizkids.
First I’ll show the 2 different Dice Masters Starter Sets. These are older sets that I’m sure Wizkids had leftover from years ago. Well their loss is your gain as you can get these nice $10 dollar sets for Free! There are 2 to choose from...an Age of Ultron set and an Uncanny X-Men set. Each set includes 44 custom dice, 38 cards, and 2 dice bags!!!
The other item available on this special day is the Iron Man 1872 Heroclix piece. This is a completely new sculpt and playable piece that should be sought after. It’s basically a Steampunk version of Iron Man from the Battleworld storyline a couple of years back. Peep it below!
Be sure to try to throw whichever shops you visit on May the 4th, a little bit of love. These items are not free for the shops as we buy them to distribute to the general public. Be sure to support the local small businesses that try to make a difference in your communities. Also as always, methods of distribution of items on FCBD will vary from store to store.
Either way, enjoy!!!
