Free Comic Book Day is this Saturday, 5/2/09

Saturday, April 25th, 2009

It’s almost time for another FCBD! While we open at 8:00 am, our Free Comic Book Day events won’t be starting until 10am. We’ll be giving out tonds of Free Comics as well as offering the special Portland comic “Bird Hurdler,” co-published by three Portland publishers (Sparkplug Comic Books, Tugboat Press, & Teeanage Dinosaur) and featuring six great Portland artists. Two of the artists featured in “Bird Hurdler” will be appearing at Guapo from 12pm to 3pm. The artists appearing will be Andrice Arp (featured in the MOME anthology published by Fantagraphics as well as Hi-Horse Omnibus) and Lisa Rosalie Eisenberg (creator of the mini-comics “I Cut My Hair” and “Monsters Make Stew”).

Be sure to stop on by and get your free comics, 10am to 7pm!

It’s time for our fourth annual Stumptown weekend Comics Party!!

The party is Friday, April 17th from 7pm to 11pm. There will be comics readings, the Maisie Kukoc Award, free beverages provided by MacTarnahan’s Brewing Co, an art show opening, and the official debuts of 9 (I think) brand new comics, including the free giveaway comic, full of Portland cartoonists, “Bird Hurdler.”

Here’s the flier, with art by Aron Nels Steinke
