This Saturday marks the 15th annual celebration of Free Comic Book Day. Fantagraphics has been a proud participant from its inception and this year you can pick up a classic collection of Love and Rockets material.
Love and Rockets is one of the most acclaimed and beloved series in comics history, and this summer, Fantagraphics has announced that the series will be rebooted as a quarterly comic book series beginning with a new #1 in July! To celebrate, Fantagraphics is offering up this one-shot sampler featuring classic L&R material by the great Hernandez Brothers, including an all-new cover and several other surprises! A perfect introduction to one of the most wonderful bodies of work in our medium’s history.
California comics fans can also get their copy signed by Jaime Hernandez at Sterling Silver Comics. More event details can be found here.

The Austin Chronicle suggests picking up a few other Fantagraphics titles while you’re getting your #FCBD fix this weekend:
“Of course, this Saturday’s also a good time to pick up those non-free comics that you’ve been meaning to get, those new and exquisitely produced things like Daniel Clowes’ Patience… and the latest iteration of the Kramers Ergot anthology.”
We couldn’t agree more. Look for these new releases at a store near you:
