It is upon us, the most anticipated holiday of the comic fan’s year, Free Comic Book Day. We are sure you have some inkling of an idea how you plan to tackle this Saturday’s events, but to help out, we suggest checking out this map of all the shops in Cleveland.

GeekCLE will of of course be joining in the festivities this year; come see us from Noon to 5pm over at Imaginary Worlds Comic Shop in Cleveland Heights. We will be setting up a photo booth for proper documentation of the excellent attendees and costumes. We will also be providing free super hero masks to the kids while supplies last!

If comic books aren’t really your thing, Saturday just also happens to be Independent Book Store Day! Please make sure to support these local and independent businesses, comic or otherwise, to keep the culture alive in Cleveland!

See you out there, Cleveland!

GeekCLE 3 Panels is an open invitation to Clevelanders to create a comic that is three panels in duration.  The top submissions will be featured in a GeekCLE 3 Panels post and site users will be able to give the creator feedback.

There’s no limit on submissions, but we ask that submitters provide content that refrains from gross sexual content or harsh profanity.  Submissions can be creative in the spatiality of the 3 panels. Images will be posted at 600px and expandable to 900px in width.

You can email the final image to geekcle216 [at] gmail [dot] com, and please include your name, city from which you hail, and the website and/or twitter account you’d like it to be associated with.
