Free Comic Book Day, Doom Patrol and Suicide Squad


If you’re a lover of Warner Bros. Animation then you’re just as likely to get a kick out of the DC comics adaptations of its various animated superhero shows.

For close to 20 years free comic books have been given away sometime in May each year to appreciative fans.

Often said free books will introduce a new character, story line or feature a first appearance.

Many such Free Comic Book Day publications have jumped in value.

Not bad for freebies!

In 2010 DC comics offered a Free Comic Book Day called the MEGA Sampler 2010 that featured DC Kids.

Inside were stories featuring SHAZAM!, Supergirl, Streaky and several superhero and super villain kids.

A Batman: The Brave and Bold story starred The Caped Crusader along with The Martian Manhunter and some Riddler jokes and a Shape Up! craft.

The Free Comic Book Day 2011 DC Comics Super Sampler featured Young Justice and Batman: The Brave and The Bold stories.

Both issues are a load of fun and maybe...just maybe they’ll become certified collector items in the near future.

For fans of quirky and offbeat DC Comics stories and characters you can’t go wrong with DC Comics’ 1988 The Doom Patrol and Suicide Squad Special.

The two teams face off against each other in a slam-bam, no-holds-barred free-for-all that packs so much action into one issue it practically bursts out from the pages.

Collectors get the chance to snag some early Erik Larsen artwork and boy does he deliver some great action packed pages!
