(You gonna argue with Wolverine bub?)

Hey guys, welcome to the Free Comic Book Day edition of the Friday links. I hope everyone is going to get a chance to head out their local comic shop and pick up from free comics. The lineup looks pretty good this year, looks like there is a little something for everyone. We are looking forward to hanging out at our favourite comic shop, talking to people and doing some sketches. It should be fun. I’ve been battling a cold all week, so it should be comfortable hanging outside all day (yes your sarcasm detector should be going off the charts right about now.) As always it’s Friday so that means there is a new page for Deadmen up and you can read it right here. Now here are your links…. FCBD style!

Free Comic Book Day – the official website for Free Comic Book Day. You can read all about it and find out what books are available. (Free Comic Book Day)

FCBD at Image Collections– The Facebook page for Image Collections’ Free Comic Book Day festivities. Click the link to find out everything they’ve got planned for the day. (Facebook)

FCBD Ironman/Thor Preview – Comic Book Resources has a preview of one of the books that will be hot hot hot at FCBD. (Comic Book Resources)

Creators Talk DC’s FCBD Sampler – Over at Newsarama they talk to some of the creators about the DC Kids Mega Sampler that I’m sure will be #1 on my sons list. (Newsarama)

Twirl a Squirrel Champ – ok, so not everything today is about free comic book day.  A friend of mine got one of these special bird feeders that prevents squirrels from eating all the bird feed… and this video of it in use was my favorite. Try to think of the music from Pee Wee’s big adventure when you watch it. (Youtube)

Ok, that’s it for the links, not on to one last item. The winning name in our “Name our Mascot” contest. We had a lot of great suggestions (my personal favorite was Arnold Trinidad) but there can be only one winner so, the winning name of our new mascot is…

Meg Sparrow.

Thanks to everyone who submitted a name and the winner will be contacted by e-mail so that we can send them their prize.

That’s it guys. Have a great FCBD,  if you have some pictures of your event feel free to post them in our message boards. I’ll try to do the same. Later!
