Hall of Heroes invites you to celebrate Free Comic Book Day May 5
Hall of Heroes, a comic book store located at 1620 S. Mission St., will be giving away free comic books during Free Comic Book Day from 12-6 p.m. on May 5.
Every year on the first Saturday of May, comic book stores nationwide participate in Free Comic Book Day. The annual event has been happening for the past 17 years. Hall of Heroes has been participating for 12 years.
The comic store will also be celebrating 13 years of business this year.
“There are 52 specific issues printed off for Free Comic Book Day,” said Michael Shuler, owner of Hall of Heroes. "These comics will be labeled and easy to distinguish from others."
In addition to free comics, there will also be numerous sales throughout the store. All trades, hardcovers, manga and coloring books will be 13 percent off. Everything else will be 30 percent off.
For those who are into cosplay, customers wearing costumes will receive 35 percent off, Shuler said.
“Even if you’ve never picked up a comic book, we want to welcome everyone to (Hall of Heroes) on May 5, because there are so many amazing comics this year and we can’t wait to share them.”
