Hey Everyone, Our local Comic book store just asked if we would do the free comic book day thing in Oct. He also mentioned the one of free comics will be a Ghostbusters comic. So just a heads up so you can snag that free Ghostbusters comic! ---

Thanks for adding some info on it. I had no idea there was even a second FCBD this year. I thought it was only in May ---

They’d been talking about expanding it to Halloween as well (which is a GREAT time for free comics) and finally officially pulled the trigger. IDW’s offering is a TMNT book, IIRC, the GB story is going in another (Diamond-published? Don’t quote me) book. ---

That’s the one! Perhaps I got my wires crossed as to where the story was appearing. (: ---

Cools. Free is free. I’m in. The overall event seems to be called Halloween 2012 Comic Fest, sponsored by comicshoplocator. Here’s a link if anyone’s interested: [Bleeding Cool article 6/16/12](http://www.bleedingcool.com/2012/06/16/halloween-free-comic-book-day/) ---

Do you guys know the specifics to this? I can’t find any information anywhere. ---

You have to check with your local comic book store to see if they are participating with the event. [Third Eye Comics in Maryland](http://www.thirdeyecomics.com/third-eye-blog/fri-1026-sat-1027-halloween-comic-fest-free-comics-free-candy-creator-signings/), for example, is holding their Halloween Comic-Fest on Friday, October 26th and Saturday October 27th in conjunction with the Annapolis Comic Con. But I would guess most participating stores will hold their event on Saturday. ---

Yep. Just pay shipping or buy stuff and he’ll throw a copy in for free, while supplies last - I believe. ---

It’s a nice mini comic too. A must have for any ghostbusters comic collector.
