If you don’t know that I am a huge comic book nerd by now, you probably never will. My favorite day of the year is coming – FREE COMIC BOOK DAY 2019! Now every store runs this amazingly geeky day differently. I have been to stores where they allow people to take one of each comic if they wish, but most limit you to one from the “gold” section and one or two from the “silver” section. Depending on the year this can be a tough decision. In fact, it usually is (especially for me) because often the main story lines tie in to things that came out during Free Comic Book Day.
Gold Comics
These are the comics that will most likely be the most popular at your local store. Many stores are different, but the odds are you will only be able to select one of these titles. Which is a HARD decision, so bring a lot of friends, and share your comics with each other. I have bolded the ones I would go with – but again, if you are limited to one, you have a rough choice ahead of you.

The content was rather catching and intriguing enough to get all possible nuances
to remember. I do enjoy reading the content and the writing manner of
the writer, etc.. I suggest you write such types of articles
every day to provide the audience like me
all the necessary details. In my opinion, it’s far better to
be prepared for all of the unexpected conditions in advance, so yes,
it was quite cool.
