The Legends comic book store on Broad Street will participate in the worldwide Free Comic Book Day set for this coming Saturday.
The annual event, which draws crowds to comic book stores, is what Legends owner Gordon Lee calls an “outreach program by the comic book companies to try and promote their products.”
For Lee, it is also a chance to give back.
Charges against Lee were recently dropped, and his defense was funded by the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. Lee will host a party Saturday will help raise money for the CBLDF. The party, which will also feature a silent auction for comic books, hardbound volumes and some autographed items, will feature karaoke and will start around 9 p.m.
“It’s a mini celebration for us,” Lee said.
The all-day event will start when the store opens and will feature appearances by comic book characters such as Dr. Doom and Spiderman. World of Wings will donate kid’s coupons for a free meal and Special Cakes by Sara will be handing out cookies in the morning.
