Last Minute Free Comic Book Day Updates For CNJComics

Hi! Here is your final Free Comic Book Day Email with things to clarify and add! First up, to clarify. Chris Claremont will be signing from 10am to 7pm in the foyer next to the shop, so you will be lining up in a seperate place to see him. He will be taking a lunch break when he needs to and we will cut his line at 6pm, meaning we will add no more people to it at 6pm. Act accordingly! We had a lot of people ask about having Tom Orzechowski out for Free Comic Book Day. He’s a living legend and likely the most prolific letterer in the history of comics. (And he’s a Wednesday regular now.) Tom lettered Claremont’s X-Men run, and he also has the Guinness World Record for ‘Most issues as a letterer for the same comic book series.’ for Spawn. Tom says he’ll be joining Claremont in the foyer next to the shop around 2pm Saturday if you’d like to meet him too! In the back of the actual Free Comic Book Room: From...

Free Comic Book Day 2021 at CNJComics!

Free Comic Book Day 2021 at CNJComics!

With three weeks out it’s time for some opening details on this years Free Comic Book Day 2021! In case you’re out of the loop, FCBD has been moved nationally to Saturday, August 14th this year! Free Comic Book Day will be from 10am to 7pm on the 14th. We will not have a night event this year to make the new challenges of the day easier for us to handle with a full nights rest. We equate having big events like this again to getting back into the saddle after a motorcycle accident. You know you can ride the motorcycle, you just need to take it easy for awhile until you get your bearings. That being said, we feel we have an amazing event to present to you this year.  First up, the big news is that we will be having Chris Claremont out for an autograph session!  Chris will be in the foyer next to the shop for the length of the event, signing autographs and meeting everyone! We have had this in the works for years and...
