Hi Gang,

Comic shops have a great little freebie right now.
It is a 32 page synopsis of Thor. From the beginning to right now.
The whole history is boiled down to a few pages.
A fun read to prep you for the big Thor movie out now.

And this is only part of what was totally available...On a side note the Comic Shops here didn't get all the books available this year, I went to two shop and both didn't have all the books available or the same books...

Enjoy,

Geo

 The nearest comic shop to where I live is a three hour drive to another state, one way.

 So it goes.

Thanks for sharing Geo.
Funny you can include a picture but when I've tried to add any I get a message about the folder being full.

The BRPD isn't from Free Comic Book day, technically.  It was a giveaway at ECCC; so is probably rare on the ground still outside the Seattle area.

I got about a dozen books, myself; and with two exceptions it was a completely different batch. 

It's so neat that this day happens; I never would have bet on it lasting when it first started.

I don't even know if my lcs is involved in this (Stirling, Scotland).  The shop is tiny and Dave never said anything about it to me on my last visit.  So, A - don't know and B - typical luck.  I'll take the bus up there this week and see what's happening, if anything.

Anyone want to trade the Pep Comics one for E.C. Segar's Popeye (Fantagraphics) FCBD?
