Free Comic Book Day

Free Comic Book Day In-Person

Join the Fairport Public Library in celebrating all things superheroes and beyond! This year, we are partnering with Wonderland Comics in Penfield! 

What is Free Comic Book Day? Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) is the biggest event in the comic book industry—a single day when participating comic book specialty shops and organizations across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely free to anyone! Founded on the belief that for every person out there, there’s a comic book they’ll love, the annual event offers a huge selection of free titles designed to appeal to a broad range of age levels and their tastes.

Every year, on the first Saturday in May, the industry comes together to give away free comics and encourage both curious, first-time comic book readers and seasoned comic book fans.

Major publishers such as DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Dark Horse Comics, IDW Publishing, BOOM! Studios, Dynamite Entertainment, and Image Comics, along with a slew of independent publishers, put out free comics for fans to enjoy at the more than 2,300 local comic shops that participate in Free Comic Book Day. The diverse range of titles available each year proves that there’s truly a book for everyone: from superheroes, to popular film and television shows, to beloved video games, and all-ages tales.
