On the first Saturday in May, participating comic book shops across the United States and around the world give away free comic books to all customers who visit their location. A tradition since 2002, comic book shops use free comic book day as a way to celebrate everything that comics books represent : an art form, entertainment, and a journey into any reader’s imagination. It’s a thank you to current readers and collectors supporting the medium over the years, and an invitation to any new readers who might be interested.

An anonymous bidder won an auction settled by ComicConnect.com yesterday for the very popular Action Comics No #1, featuring the first appearance of Superman. Other popular comics such as Amazing Fantasy #15 (the first appearance of Spider-man) and Fantastic Four #1 have sold for $227,000 & $52,000 respectively, but nothing of this magnitude. This one million dollar sale marks a new milestone for any comic book value & gives any fan or collector a new found sense that their hobby is truly something special.

Planet Hulk DVD

If you haven’t had a chance to buy Planet Hulk on DVD or Blu-Ray, and you’re a Hulk fan, you owe it to yourself to at least rent it. The film is 81 min long, has the movie/cinema feel with its 1.78:1 aspect ratio, and doesn’t disappoint comic fans, to an extent. The problem with the film is it takes place on the planet Sakaar because the Hulk has been exiled from Earth for being an uncontrollable monster. So, if you want to see the Hulk in a movie primarily based on Earth, perhaps smashing cars, and interacting with mankind, this movie might not be for you. It’s available on Amazon.com for $12.99. There’s also a 2-disc special edition for $14.99 as well as the Blu-Ray version. In the mean time, check out the trailer :
