It's the biggest comics book day of the year. Wondering where to go for Free Comic Book Day? Wonder no more! Trevor at How to Love Comics has done all the hard work and put together a Free Comic Book Day Directory with over 250 entries. Will someone buy him a big steak dinner? Or give him some comic books?
