Free Comic Book day this Saturday

Hi,

This Saturday is Free Comic Book day. I'm planning on heading into London to
visit 3 of the participating stores (Forbidden Planet, Gosh and Orbital).
Anyone else fancy a break from revising and coming too?

For those of you who've not taken part before, a number of comic shops
around the world will be giving away a selection of free comics. Different
shops do things differently. For eaxmple, Forbidden Planet hands you a bag
of random comics and Orbital lets you pick 2 or 3 or sometimes more if you
buy stuff too (it varies wildly each year what they do).

There are more stores in London that are taking part, but the 3 I've
mentioned above are all within easy walking distance of each other.

For a full list of the comics that might be available check out the FCBD
website here: http://www.freecomicbookday.com/Home/1/1/27/981

Orbital have a number of 2000ad creators in store this Saturday:

This year's 2000ad features a reprint of the very first Strontium Dog
story I EVER read in Starlord annual 1982. Since I can't get out
Saturday, could someone grab me a copy of the 2000ad FCBD edition please?

FCBD previews can be found at

Meanwhile if you go past FP get your photo taken with the TFNation
Window Display, a convention some of m'learned Transformers colleagues
are organising!

Given how busy Orbital gets on FCBD, that sounds like a reason to avoid it ;)
Maybe we'll leave it 'til last.
I can't guarantee anything, but we will try and get a copy.
That is a lot more doable, although possible after we've been inside :)
