This Saturday ( 10/13 ) commerates the 15th Anniversary of the worldwide phenomenon known as The Walking Dead. What does that mean for you?!? It means that you are going to walk your ass into your nearest comic book shop and pick up some sweet items.to find your nearest comic shop, visit this site and pop in your location. https://www.comicshoplocator.com/Home/1/1/57/575

First off you can purchase one, some or all of 15 different special blind bag Walking Dead comics. These reprints feature all new cover art by various artists.

To see those covers and learn a bit more about them, please check out an earlier piece I popped up several weeks back. Each one should retail for $3.99 and have the opportunity to pull one of 4 different versions of that cover. That earlier detailed piece can be found here.

There are also some other goodies that shops will have. These will all be limited so get to your shops early as they will most likely run out. What the hell are you waiting for?!?

Finally there is a postcard, a bookmark, and a pin. Each shop will be handling all of these freebies differently. Some might have ordered a ton and might just put em out for grabs. Some might have ordered tight and have the freebies toed to a purchase of the blind bags. It’s really up to each store just remember...please purchase something. Even if just 1 book. These are NOT given to retailers. Each retailer has to spend their own money and pays for these giveaways so please be considerate. The better the retailer does on these days, the more likely they are to participate in all of the other comic days that the industry tries to push.

If you end up hitting up a shop, post here and let us know how you did!!!

Sort:  

Oh damn, a would like to have them all, I have not collected comics for over 10-12 years!

That can be arranged if interested!!! 😜

Every comic shop will provide the free comic version listed on this article? ;)

Only if they ordeeed it. I think any smart shop will but I’m sure there are some who decide not to participate though I think they are a small minority.
