Submitted by Veronica G. [1] on Fri, 04/20/2012 - 2:51pm

[2]Did you know Saturday, May 5th, is Free Comic Book Day [3]? Comic Book shops across the nation participate in this day to bring new faces to their businesses and inspire new readers. This is a great chance to receive a free and cool book; but don't forget your library also has graphic novels available for free (as long as you return them back on time!). Stop by the library to browse the shelves or search our catalog [4] to see what own system-wide.

Here is a sample of popular series we offer:

Bone Captain America Fables

Bone [5] by Jeff Smith

Captain America [6]by Ed Brubaker

Fables [7] by Bill Willingham
