Free Comic Books Day
Origin
The very first Free Comic Book Day was held in 2002 and was coordinated and managed by the industry’s single large distributor, Diamond Comic Distributors.
In 2001, retailer Joe Field was composing segments for an industry magazine, and perceived how fruitful component films in view of comic book establishments were furnishing the comic book industry with a positive social and budgetary turnaround from the theorist bust of the late 1990s, Field proposed Free Comic Book Day in one of his segments, and got positive response to it. At that point Image Comics distributor Jim Valentino recommended having the very first Free Comic Book Day on an indistinguishable end of the week from the opening of the 2002 Spider-Man film, with a specific end goal to exploit the film’s overwhelming advancement and related press about the comic book medium, and in this manner the primary occasion was held May 4, 2002, one day after the film’s opening. In any case, not all occasions have compared with the arrival of a film in view of a comic book. In 2004 it was held in July, yet it was moved back to the first Saturday in May the next year and has been hung on that day ever since.
