Hi all,

To those of us who live in North America, this weekend holds a very special place in the hearts of all comic lovers. That’s right, it was free comic day! The one day a year when your local comic store will give you, free of charge, one of many comics published specially for the day. I myself picked up a copy of Atomic Robo from Red 5 Comics. I had to do a bit of research and found out that the shops do have to pay for the comics, so make sure if you go to pick up one of the ‘free’ issues you go the extra mile and pick up another copy to support this awesome day.

Marvel and Upperdeck have brought back the Masterpieces Sketch Card Series, and our very own Josh Alves has submitted his genius for Marvel to check out. Josh did fifty of these guys and while they were all sent back, they really are fantastic. Check out one sheet below and head to his blog to check out the rest!

Lastly, a couple of our contributors have websites with new looks. Caleb Monroe (calebmonroe.com) and Caroline Parkinson (carolineparkinson.co.uk) I would recommend checking out both sites, both are pretty neat and well put together.

That’s all for this week folks!
