Archie Comics is putting out two books for Free Comic Book Day, and we have a preview for each. The first book you'll be able to get on the first Saturday in May is FCBD 2016 Archie #1.

Mark Waid and Fiona Staples reimagine an icon in this special FCBD reprint of the best-selling first issue of Archie! Change has come to Riverdale in the can't-miss kick-off to Archie's new ongoing series!

As the new school year approaches, you'd think Archie Andrews would be looking forward to classes and fun – but nothing is as it seems in the little town of Riverdale. Is this a one-off, or a sign of bigger changes awaiting America's favorite teens… and the entire town? Find out in this exciting, remarkable and critically acclaimed first issue!

Script: Mark Waid
Art: Fiona Staples, Andre Szymanowicz with Jen Vaughn, Jack Morelli

Also available is the FCBD 2016 Sonic Sampler.

Get the best of both worlds with the Sonic Sampler! Hot on the heels of the all-new epic Sonic comics event, "Panic in the Sky," comes a supersonic sampling of stories for Free Comic Book Day! Join Sonic and friends as they band together to save the world from the evil ambitions of Dr. Eggman in these select stories from Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic Universe! Plus, get a sneak peek of what's to come with a special "Fast Forward Feature" that you'll have to see to believe!
