Free Comic Book Day 2025 at CNJComics

It’s that time of year again! Free Comic Book Day returns to Cleveland on Saturday, May 3rd, from 10 am to 7 pm! This is our 24th year hosting a Free Comic Book Day event! (yes, we’ve been doing it since its inception in 2002, when Sam Raimi’s first Spider-Man film came out.) Everyone attending this year will be able to pick out 12 books from the 45 titles that are being offered. We will be using the same space as last year, the old tanning salon 50 feet from the shop. This is our favorite spot we’ve ever used due to its close proximity to the store. It’s been a tough year so far, and quite a few FCBD books have been canceled due to Diamond’s bankruptcy and impending tariffs. (a vast majority of comics are printed in Canada) Rest assured, we’re on top of everything we can do and will have every available free comic book and then some. It ain’t our first rodeo, and it’s a labor of love. (Be advised, the struggle is real, though.) Here’s...

Come on out on Thursday the 17th for Late Nite Comics! We’ll stay open until midnight, and starting at 8pm all back issues will be 50% off! Including the wall! We’re putting out over 60 long boxes of dollar stock and they’ll all be 50 cents each! No qualifiers! This is the Late Nite Comics that is helping to fund Free Comic Book Day this year, so help us give you free comics by picking up some 50 cent books and half off back issues! Can’t make it on Thursday? We’ll also have all in store dollar books for 50 cents each all day Friday and Saturday. We should have some Superman dollar stock out for Superman Day as well!

Andrea’s Resurrection Picks for 04.02.2025

Happy April, Comic Shop Friends! We were going to do an April Fool’s Day joke and tell you there were no new comics this week after last Wednesday’s massive day, but you wouldn’t have believed us. And there are some excellent books you need to pick up this week! First, thank you to everyone who came out this past Sunday for the Matthew Rosenberg and Tyler Boss signing! We had an incredibly successful event, and were busy for the entire two hours. They mentioned how awesome our customers were so thank you for making us look good in front of the talent! Get ready for the Summer of Superman with Superman Day on Wednesday, April 9th. We’ll have three free books to give out, Jimmy Olsen’s Supercyclopedia, Superman for All Seasons #1, and All-Star Superman #1. There are a few exclusives releasing that day as well, like the Golden Age sized facsimile of Action Comics #1! Mark your calendars for April’s Late Nite Comics happening on Thursday the 17th from 8pm to midnight! And for Free Comic Book Day on...
