I was only able to pick up these 3 by the time I made it there this afternoon...

AllStar Superman

Hellboy FCBD

X-men FCBD

All those other less known titles were long gone. i was actually shocked those went before any of those 3..

Speedy-D (5/3/2008)
This is my first time experiencing the wonder of FCBD. I went to a store in Manhattan, Forbidden Planet, only to be told that the Free Comics were only for children. So scratch that place. I wandered up to 23rd street, to Cosmic Comics, and they were much more accommodating. So I wound up getting:

All-Star Superman #1
Dan Dare
GEKIGA!
Ignatz
Jungle Girl (believe it or not, she's cute!)
Justice Society Of America #2
Love & Capes #7
Wonder Woman #12
Wonder Woman #222
Uncanny X-Men
X-Men

I'm not sure what's up with there being a Wonder Woman #12 and a Wonder Woman #222. The 222 is from '05 and the 12 is from '07, so I guess they restarted the numbering some time in '06?


Yep, #226, if memory serves, was the last issue of Vol. 2. Vol. 3 started after Infinite Crisis.

Everything was pretty much gone by the time that I had got there at 5.

They had saved me an X-Men, and I got an Iron Man heroclix, but I was really wanting an Atomic Robo.Guess I'll have to try to find one on EBay.
