Free comic book day May 4th 2013

Do you love comic book's? have you never read one before but would like to give them a go? then this post is for you! I have noticed on several facebook pages and in forums how some people have been complaining how in the UK there is no such thing as Comic Book Day!...where you are wrong there is i have only just found this out myself via comicshoplocator.com What is free comic book day? its a single day-the first saturday in may each year. across North America and around the World in Participating comic book shops. now i have been spreading the news however people seem to be having trouble locating their nearest comic book store in the uk so i have compiled a list to help you.

 Please note these are NOT the only comic book stores around but they are the only ones with this logo beside them which shows that they are taking part.(if you decide to attend i strongly recommend you call...just incase they had to back out for some reason)...
