  3. Plan to get to the events early for the best possible experience and selection! (people always ask me when the line starts to form. Strangely this is the one the I have absolutely no control over)<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Get your costume ready! Dress for success! At the midnight party and early on Saturday morning it seems like everybody dresses up. There\u2019s no way you can feel like a weirdo. At the very least wear some flair and show your colors!<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Bring a friend! Plan a family outing! Free Comic Book Day works best when shared. This is the day to share your hobby with a newbie.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Spread the word by blogging, posting and sharing your FCBD plans! Please use this image on your chosen form of social media!\"Spider-Man<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n
