It's Coronation Free Comic Book Day! The Daily LITG, 6th of May 2023

An LITG runaround the previous day on Bleeding Cool, and the last four years, as well as comic creator birthdays... it's Free Comic Book Day!


Welcome to the Daily LITG for Free Comic Book Day – and for the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla. I'm on the tube on the way into London as I write this in my Captain Britain shirt! The world can seem like a terrible and strange place sometimes, but at Bleeding Cool, you can still read all about comics, merch, TV shows, games, movies, and more. The Daily Lying In The Gutters remains a long-running run around the day before and the day ahead.  You can sign up to receive it as an e-mail here.
