Free Comic Book Day/Cartoonist Day

I've been keeping my eye open for some news about this event, coming the first Saturday in May. Here's a good article from the Honolulu Advertiser by Caroline E. Toth ....

Free Comic Book Day is coming. And, if you are lucky enough to live in Hawaii, then you have the coolest library; 6 libraries are participating in Free Comic Book Day, giving away Archie, Transformers and Peanuts comics. This is way, way cool of these librarians, and the Hawaii public library system, to actually support comics!

May 5 is also Cartoonist Day.

Hat tip to once again the informative Dirk Deppey at Journalista!

Don't forget Cinco de Mayo – that is one holiday packed day.

I'd like to propse that every day have at least three holidays on it.

Maybe today can be Free Mango Day, Adopt a Chihuahua Day, and Give Mark $5 Day!

And the good editor of Hogan's Alley magazine will send a free back issue (his choice) to anyone who sends him an e-mail request at hoganmag@gmail.com on May 5. Don't forget to include your name and mailing address!
