Ok, so who went.. what swag did you walk away with, what did you enjoy the most?

My local comic shop had a limit to three comics (I don't know if that is standard practice), but I walked away with a "Wizard: How to Draw" comic, the Viper Comics collection, and curious - but ultimately the best of the bunch - comic called Mr. Jean that seems to be an English translation of a French comic. Very cool!

Oh, I also bought issues 2 and 3 of the Jeff Smith Shazaam! mini series.

Not sure what all we got. My wife grabbed a bunch of stuff including a Batman Heroclix and a Clone Trooper for the Star Wars miniature game.
I ended up finding a copy of the one volume edition of Bone, so I was happy with buying that. :)

I'm also doing that other comic "Space Waffles ".
We now have a podcast called The Random Pirate Comics Show!

I got all the free promo comics. Out of all of them, one eight page preview for a comic called "Pantheon City" interested me the most. It looks completely and totally awesome. I think it's from Dark Horse.

Anyway the rest were alright. Image released a new comic by Robert Kirkman which looked kind of cool, but I thought the dialogue was little off. Marvel and DC completely failed this year though. DC's free Justice League comic was incomprehensable.

Ah the Big Bone Volume? Snazz. I own a copy. Those things are hard to find these days - being out-of-print and all.

Had a great time for Free Mini Comic Day. I printed out about 500 comics for it, and had about 200 more donated by other publishers. We were about 150-200 comics short to reach our full goal, so we had to leave a few of our original stores out, but we managed to get about 50 stores around the country to participate.

I bought the first issue of bone first and then found that there was a collection.

That really pissed me off.

I was a guest artist (one of eight) at Happy Harbor Comics in Edmonton, AB for Free Comic Book Day. It was a ton of fun and the store was insanely busy. I walked away with 20 or so free comics and bought Green Lantern Corps issues 1 & 2, The Walking Dead Vol. 1, Powers Vol. 1, The Goon Vol. 0, and Preacher Vol. 1. They had a big sale on so I decided to jump into some titles that I had been interested in for a while but hadn't read yet. The Goon was the exception, Vol. 0 was the only one I needed to complete my collection of Goon trades.

Crime Pays, updating Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Funny how you go in for free comics and end up buying something. Oh wait...

Walking Dead is an excellent series btw.
