Loved getting to read your side of your history with FCBD and how much it means to you! Your 2001 shirt illustration is one of my favorite pieces from you! Not to mention the fantastic I Hate Image comic, which was hilarious! It was awesome getting to see Gert interact with so many of my other favorite characters.
Cant wait to pick up this years, though it's crazy to think it's been 7 years since your last interior! But the wait has been well worth it with the plethora of fantastic covers and writing we've gotten in the meantime. Not to mention shining the light on some other incredible artists like Jorge and Bean whose work I love just as much now!
I have maybe (most definitely) more than once told the staff at my LCS how excited I am to pick up IHF: Once Upon a Time Saturday…I won’t say I’m like a broken record but they might! 😬😂
Yes it is. Eric and his team are fantastic—they have a note behind the desk that basically says if it’s your work, I want it. Old or new. They make sure to save everything for me. It’s awesome!
Will be getting my copy from my LCBS on Saturday but also took advantage of your store offer and grabbed a copy of Bully Wars so I can get a signed copy of IHF! Gert is an all time fave of mine!
Thank you for doing both. Definitely want to get out and support those stores. But also thank you for grabbing Bully Wars! I thinks that's the first comic of mind that Megan read!
Another FANTASTIC read! I can't wait to pick up my copy this weekend along with receiving the signed one with my order from today. TYSM for all you guys do!
Just to follow up - free comics acquired. Also grabbed I Hate Fairyland vol1 and a special edition of The Coming of Galactus. 10:35am in the UK and shaping up to be a glorious Saturday! Have a great one everyone!
I’ve got my 11 year old hooked as well. He’s into omnibuses to read as much as he can at a time! It’s truly an awesome thing to be able to share with him!
It’s a great little shop in Ankeny Iowa!
Keep up the awesome work, we can’t wait to see what comes out next!
What a very awesome history with FCBD and a way to give back to us. I just purchased Twig Tp on the website and can’t wait for a free signed FCBD book! Also if he wants to sign the twig 😉 that would be ok lol. In the longshot that it happens the order is for ( Kory) either way thank you for giving of your time in shops and to us on the website. Stupid fresh team rocks and skottie rock! Here is a slice 🍕
Thanks Kory! And oh yea, EVERY single creator book that leaves here comes signed. Your TWIG also comes with a bookplate that is signed... so you'll be getting THREE Skottie signatures.
Like the evening hours after a frantic Christmas morning or the afternoon nap after overeating at Thanksgiving, Free Comic Book Day has come to a close for me. Now is the time to sit and more carefully go through the not-insubstantial stack of new books I’ve come home with. Not surprisingly, my first read was your IHF book. Great recap on one of my fave stories! Can’t wait to get my signed copy soon along with my first copy of the Bully Wars trade!

Thanks Tyler!! Hope you dig it. You're going to get a nice preview of what Derek Laufman will be bringing to the book!
I have no doubt I will! And I'm for sure excited to get a look at what you're cooking up with Derek on the new series!
Loved our FCBD issue so much! Hope you're well, man!
Thanks, Brian! Me too! I felt so luck to work on those characters with you.
Brian, I have GOT to catch up with you at some time to get my Paper Girls books signed. What a fantastic series!!!

hahaha. I can't remember, is Chicago comics your LcS?
Yes it is. Eric and his team are fantastic—they have a note behind the desk that basically says if it’s your work, I want it. Old or new. They make sure to save everything for me. It’s awesome!
That's awesome. I wonder if they know I used to shop there on the regular.
I’ll ask next time I’m there!

I’m surprised that in the past two years that I’ve been buying on the website I did not know that lol. Thank you for that information!
Thank Kory! And yup, like Megan said, it will be signed for sure!
Also looking forward to the website for may 6th 🐰 sick cover!
Are there still FCBD issues left with purchase?
