"Free Comic Book Day is a single day when participating comic book shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely free to anyone who comes into their stores."

From manga to horror, superhero comics to those wacky teens from Riverdale, Free Comic Book Day has what you need! What a great way to get into comics, or -- if you've fallen off the wagon -- what a great time to get back in the habit! Check out these local comic shops this Saturday to see what it's all about:

Phantom of the Attic @ 406 South Craig St. in Oakland. Open 10 AM to 7 PM on Saturday.

The Copacetic Comics Company @ 1505 Asbury Pl. in Sq. Hill. Open 11 AM to 5 PM on Saturday.

And remember, comics are always free at the library! We've got thousands of graphic novels, manga and zines to choose from. Stop by the teen desk and we'll recommend something great.

Deadpool’s Blog


Hello my friends and fans of my comic book. This is Deadpool the merc with the mouth. Entertainment Weekly interviewed me, which is weird because I force fed chimichangas to the staff and writers while they were duct taped to their chairs. Come on at least I didn’t kill them. They would drop the law suit if I agreed to do an interview with them.

Question: How did you get your powers?
Answer: Cancer, weapon x, insanity.
Question: What do you do for a living?
Answer: Merc for hire you stupid magazine creators.
Question: How many girlfriends have you had?
Answer: Outlaw, Psylocke, Siren.
Question: What is the craziest mission you ever did?
Answer: The time Cable hired me to steal a force field thingy. I had
to kill undead clowns - and I hate clowns.
Question: Which hero team would you join?
Answer: The New Avengers because they need comic relief and a guys guy.

Comics Come to Life @ Art Club

Last Wednesday in Art Club we made our own COMICS. Be sure to check out Art Club, every Wednesday at 3:00pm to see what creative projects we're cooking up next.

I'm Corey and I'm new here.

Hi everyone, my name's Corey and this is my first week in Teen. I'm super-excited to be here and I look forward to meeting you all. Please feel free to track me down and introduce yourself. My interests include: soul music, dancing, comics (Marvel, Paul Pope, Grant Morrison, etc.), stationery and trees. I'm always good for a recommendation when it comes to music or graphic novels, but I'd be just as happy to shoot the breeze. See you soon!
