Tomorrow sees the release of the first Black Mirror comic book for Free Comic Book Day. Which, yes, means it will be for free. And heralds a new line of Black Mirror graphic novels from Neil Gibson's Twisted Comics, a British publisher of graphic novels, notable for sci-fi thrillers with twists in the tale. Which seems a perfect match.
The Free Comic Book Day Black Mirror comic by Charlie Brooker, Neil Gibson, Samantha Dodge and Flavio Soares shows black and white inked, pencilled and laid out pages for the upcoming full colour Black Mirror graphic novel based on the classic episode San Junipero, and confirms there will be one based on the original USS Callister as well. There should be around 70,000 copies out there in comic book stores up and down the land, so it shouldn't be hard to find if you are sharpish about it. Forbidden Planet in Central London should have plenty as Neil Gibson is doing a signing there tomorrow.

Black Mirror FCBD 2025 by Neil Gibson and X will be available for free on Free Comic Book Day in all participating comic book stores. Saturday, the 3rd of May. You can catch up with all of Bleeding Cool's extensive Free Comic Book Day coverage this year, with announcements, giveaways, signings and spoilers with our handy FCBD tag. I guess there will be quite a lot today and tomorrow.
