Free Comic Book Day 2005 Posted By Dustin on January 18, 2005
The fourth annual Free Comic Book Day will take place on Saturday, May 7th this year. Dark Horse will once again participate with a free issue of a Star Wars comic.
Since 2005 is all about Revenge of the Sith, it should come as no surprise that the free comic will be based on the film. Here is the official description:
STAR WARS: REVENGE OF THE SITH FCBD EDITION by Miles Lane and Nicola Scott Star Wars Episode III ?Revenge of the Sith comes to theaters May 19 but a free sneak peek will be available in comic stores on Free Comic Book Day. This comic ties in with the events of Episode III, as the action of the Clone Wars comes to a dramatic conclusion and events are put in place for A New Hope. Battles rage in space, armies clash on alien worlds, heroes become martyrs, and friends become enemies ? all leading up to the biggest, longest, and most incredible lightsaber duel in Star Wars history! This is the film that answers the questions "How did Anakin succumb to the dark side?" "What happened to Luke and Leia?s mother?" "And why are there no Jedi around in the original Trilogy?"
(CAUT: 3) NOTE: Not available in the U.K. (May Purchase from U.K. Vendor)
32pgs, FC..........FREE!
head on over to the Free Comic Book Day site for complete details and a listing of all the other comics that will be available from other publishers.
* UPDATE:
TFN reader Paul Myers chimes in . . .
I read the news story on TF.N about Free Comic Book Day. I just wanted to point out that on the DarkHorse.com message boards Miles Lane described the Free Comic Book Day story as follows:
"...it's an adventure set right after "Obsession" and features Obi-Wan and Anakin. I'm having a blast with that, too."
So what I'm saying is that it may not have as much to do with Revenge of the Sith as the solicitation would make it seem. Then again, Miles Lane is writing the script for the ROTS Comic adaptation as well as this Free Comic, so they will undoubtedlty tie-in in some way. Just not as much as the solicitation would make it appear.
Just thought you might want to note these things in the news article.
MTFBWY!
Rebelscum Breast Cancer Awareness Charity Patch Posted By Philip on November 25, 2014: Thanks to everybody that ordered patches. I sent a check for $1,600.00 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation on Monday. While it's not as much as I hoped for, it's still very much appreciated. They will remain for sale in the store for anybody that still wishes to purchase them. Details after the jump.
