Another year - another great Free Comic Book Day! And this year - finally - again with an awesome STAR WARS issue - I love those specials ;-) I don´t know about your experiences, but this year was EXTREMELY busy (well, at least in the LA area) and after 1 pm there wasn´t hardly any SW comic available any more. So, be prepared for next year: FCBD is becoming more and more mainstream from year to year! And that´s what it is about, right? Congrats!
Oh, NO! After all these years, STARLOG ceased the beloved SCI-FI magazine - well, at least the ´printed´version. I have to admit I also ´just´buyed the STAR WARS (and Indy) issues, but nevertheless that´s already something. Boys, you did a marvelous job - THANK YOU so much for reporting on everything SCI-FI for over 30ty (!) years. I gonna miss the mag for sure. Another great print publication bites the dust. As much as I love the internet, I hate it when it kills ´real´magazines! STARLOG RIP
FREE COMIC BOOK DAY is coming back and after 2 years of NO special STAR WARS piece (after all these great issues) DARK HORSE is finally back with a new (maybe exclusively, but that´s not a given) comic. As you all hopefully know, FCBD ist a great way to make some noise about comics (in the US and more and more in Europe as well) - check out the FCBD website and be patient: The comic will be published May 2nd!
Just found this magazine on ebay UK -nice!!!! I´m not sure if this mag has been published at the end of 08 or really is the first of 2009 BUT with STAR WARS covers like this, it´s a pretty good start anyway ;-)
