I am fucken pumped for Free Comic Book Day!

[edit] Ethics of distributors

Is this worth a mentioning? I'm referring to comic book stores which limit how many titles a person can have and/or those that won't let people get any of the titles unless they buy something. This (especially the latter) seems to go against the spirit of the day.--HellCat86 22:42, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't mind it being mentioned. The store I frequent near where I live, as well as the store where I used to live have never imposed limits. In fact, the store near where I used to live encouraged everyone to take anything they were interested in. I've been hearing more and more about about places that impose a 3-book limit. I think it's really not in their best interest since most people will only go with the titles they're familiar with and won't pick up a book they know nothing about which could turn out to be a must-have series for them. If you need a reference for the limit, it's mentioned on the May 7th post at http://www.comicbookjournal.net/ . I'm sure you can find others if you look. I actually came to this article looking to see if FCBD had any official stance on book limits. -GamblinMonkey 12:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Movies

Should we mention the movies that were released around the time of each year? As in, list Spider-Man next to 2002, X2 next to 2003, Spider-Man 2 next to 2004 and Spider-Man 3 next to 2007. (Were there any for 2006 and 2007?) -Joltman 15:22, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
