For ten years Free Comic Book Day has been celebrated the first Saturday in May.  It is a great time for people to check out new titles and especially for younger readers to discover comics.  A large number of title are all ages and sometimes comic shops will have special things going on.  My local shop, Comic Carnival, had two tables full of free comics and was pretty busy.  Before I left I was asked if I might be interested in helping them out for “back issue credit.”  So that is how I ended up spending a couple hours on Saturday in a coyote costume waving at the passing traffic… My mother would be proud.

Besides that I did have a great Friday night working with some kids in Remington, Indiana.  Cecil and I presented a quick class on character creation and basic comic creation.  Thanks to Dino Club and their sponsor Karla Gregory for bring me out.
