Blastoff’s Free Comic Book Day

The Studio City Patch came out to talk to us about our plans for Free Comic Book Day!

It’s Free Comic Book day on Saturday—traditionally the first Saturday in May, and coincidentally (lately) the same time a big blockbuster comic-book style movie hits the theaters. 

This year, of course, it’s The Avengers, expecting to blast off into the stratosphere as far as box office records.
