So Cal Comics is excited to announce its participation in the nationally popular one-day event designed to stimulate business for comic book retailers and publishers, Free Comic Book Day. This event will occur on Saturday, May 20, 2023, at the massive outdoor arena of Southern California Comics. "We're going all out this year," says owner Jamie Newbold. "We'll be handing out thousands of free comic books to everyone and anyone who comes to our event. It's a great opportunity to rediscover the love for your favorite childhood hobby." 2023 marks the 21st year of the event and the 25th anniversary of the opening of Southern California Comics. We will celebrate the anniversary with limited edition store shirts and tote bags, available starting on Free Comic Book Day. Previous shows have attracted as many as 1500 people. This year we have 24 vendors of hot collectibles and local comic creators sharing their original creations. So Cal Comics has an impressive guest list of local art talent, but the Tour de Force is the seminal arrangement to have over one million dollars worth of comic books on display in one glass case. Actual copies of Action Comics 1-10 will be on display, which is a great photo opp moment because of San Diego's comic heritage. "This is a great photo opp for the press," says Newbold. "These books are rarely seen in public for their scarcity." The event is family-friendly and will be held outdoors. Cosplay is encouraged! Visitors will be treated to a kaleidoscope of incredible collectibles, from comic books to Barbie dolls. "We have experts on hand to talk about comic books and comic collecting in San Diego," says Newbold. "It's a great opportunity to learn about the history of comics and the industry as a whole." Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind event! So Cal Comics invites you to join them on May 20 to celebrate comic books and the love for this timeless hobby.
