Free Comic Book Day Public Debates

Free Comic Book Day is a nationwide promotion designed to increase\ interest in comics and does create a lot of store traffic and get media coverage\ locally and
nationally. Our partnering with Comics Kingdom comes out of\ discussions surrounding Spilly's debate comix initiative and some of their own\ work with charities/non-profits on using comics as a learning tool.

We'll be putting on comics-related debate (some silly,
some serious; some on\ the national topic with a comics flavor, some specific to comics). If you're\ interested in debating, helping to develop cases/arguments or just want to attend,\ please feel free to contact Sean at sean@budl.org or 410.752.2835 ext.104.

If you like comics, debate or both, please make plans to join us. And,\ oh yeah, did I mention FREE COMICS!
