Free Comic Book Day is May 2! This is an awesome day when participating comic book stores give away comic books absolutely FREE to anyone who comes into their stores!
This year, Star Wars fans get a treat with this Clone Wars comic featuring Jedi Kit Fisto and the clone troopers as they fight against those pesky Geonosians. Plus we get to find out how the clone trooper Cooker got his nickname.
The comic also includes comic stories with Emily Strange and Indiana Jones (though not in the same story — drats!)

Will have a copy of this to go with the rest of my collection woo, such a dork lol
I took my kids to two of the stores listed at the “participating stores” link above. They were both gone (out of business). Found another comic store that was holding all free comics for his regular subscribers. Free Comic Book Day is a useless attempt to breathe life into a dying business.
On the flip side, my comic book store had TONS of free comics (including Clone Wars) but hardly anyone came in today, so they let kids take more than 2 comics.
In my city one store which has 4 locations did it up big- at the flagship store they had Gail Simone come in and do a talk, and at the one we went to they had roller derby outside and artists inside raising money for the food bank by doing sketches for people. It was very fun, and it is a shame that stuff happens like the things John Curtis mentions above.
