Contact us.comic-book-boxBleeding Cool Magazine article by Jim Kuhoric

Welcome to Comic Collecting 101. I'm your instructor for this short class, and I'll be walking you through some of the best ways to start and enjoy one of the most colorful and creative hobbies out there. Fear not, as I'm here to tell you that you don't need to be Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory to get into comics. But do pay attention… because there will be a test at the end.

Your First Comic Book
You've already taken step one by visiting a local comic book retailer on Free Comic Book Day. If you are reading this issue, then you've likely attended a special event and partaken of a nice selection of free comics. By now, you realize that there is an incredible wealth of diversity in comics and there are books which will interest just about anyone from any background. And so you have uncovered the first rule of comic collecting: Buy what you like.

You can find the full article in Bleeding Cool Magazine FCBD Edition at a comics retailer near you.  Here is the Bleeding Cool Directory of retailers who have shown special support to the magazine and this website. Are you a retailer who would like to be included?
