Why: Comic books began in the 1930s as a unique American art form that has grown - like so many American forms of entertainment - to spread around the globe. Comics feature a wide range of stories that capture the readers’ imagination, and send them on an adventure across countries, worlds, and even galaxies. Free Comic Book Day is a salute to the medium that encourages literacy, imagination, and boundless creativity.
