#FreeComicBookDay
Saturday, May 3rd :: 10AM-7PM
Artists Signing/Sketching: 1PM-6PM

We hope you all know that the 2025 HeroesCon is right around the corner, June 20-22 at the Charlotte Convention Center.

We’ve been working harder than ever to make this year’s HeroesCon our best yet!
We still have a LOT of work to do to get ready for the show, such as posting our 2025 Artist Alley Table participants, getting panels scheduled, and MORE!
So make sure to purchase your tickets today!

Before we get to the HeroesCon festivities, we will be hosting Free Comic Book Day, this Saturday, May 3rd. 

The store will be open regular hours that day from 10am – 7pm, with a small but spectacular group of Artists joining us from 1pm-6pm doing sketches!

Artists joining us for this year’s FCBD:
John Burgin
Bridgit Connell
Sanford Greene
John Hairston Jr.
Brian Stelfreeze

It’s been an unusual time for comic book stores all across the country this year as we navigate changes in distribution throughout the industry.
As a result of this, along with a multitude of other factors, this year’s Free Comic Book Day is going to be a little different. Most notably, the number of “Free Comic Book Day” exclusive books we will have available will be extremely limited in quantity.

To help supplement our stock of “FREE” books, Shelton will be bringing out our back-stock of $1 comics, and we will allow customers to select up to 10 books from the $1 stock for FREE on Saturday, May 3!

“Free Comic Day Exclusive Comics” will be limited to no more than 3 per person, with no duplicates, and those 3 will count against your 10 “free” titles.
We will have staff on hand to help navigate the proceedings. 

We are happy to have Free Comic Book Day back again, but we also want to make sure we have comics available for as many customers as possible.

Free Comic Book Day will be lots of fun for everyone, and a great way to kick off the HeroesCon season!

Just a reminder: PLEASE DO NOT PARK ACROSS THE STREET at the PECAN POINT SHOPPING CENTER. They WILL BOOT YOUR CAR.
We recommend finding on-street parking on 8th Street or Pecan Avenue.

As always, we appreciate your enthusiasm and continued support!
