The Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) Committee has selected its
twelve Gold Sponsor comic book titles for the comic book industry’s top annual
event, Free Comic Book Day, scheduled for Saturday, May 3rd, 2014 at
participating comic book shops. Next
year marks the largest Free Comic Book Day ever with 60 comics available to
choose from including fan-favorite and new comic book characters that
encourages readers to explore the fun and excitement that comics have to offer.
Chosen by comic shop retailers on the FCBD Committee,
there’s a free comic book for everyone’s taste from the Gold Sponsors: from
superheroes, to action- adventure, and all-ages favorites.
“Once again, comic book publishers are giving fans what
they want: great stories with recognizable characters all inside a free comic
book!” said Dan Manser, FCBD spokesperson. “This year’s Gold Sponsors are
comprised of the top publishers in the comics industry we we’re sure that fans
will be pleased with the line-up. We look forward to seeing all the fans during
Free Comic Book Day at participating comic shops across the nation and
worldwide.”
A complete listing of all sixty FCBD titles, including
the twelve Gold and forty-eight Silver comic books, can be found in the January
issue of Diamond Comic Distributors’ PREVIEWS catalog, on sale at all comic
book shops January 1, 2014 . Look for a separate announcement next Thursday,
