Free Comic Book Day was a HUGE success

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. And the NEG took part in 4 events throughout New England in the process raising close to $500 for the Jimmy Fund!!!! The NEG Events happened at...

The Comic Stop - Watertown, MA
Rubber Chicken Comics, Bellingham, MA
Jetpack Comics, Rochester, NH
Earth Prime Comics, Burlington VT
