Halloween ComicFest 2012

No tricks this Halloween, instead we have a treat for you! It's like a miniature version of Free Comic Book Day as we bring you a selection of free comics to celebrate the spooky season.


Here's the six titles we'll have on offer:


ADVENTURE TIME MINI COMIC
It's ADVENTURE TIME! Join Finn the Human, Jake the Dog, and Princess Bubblegum for all-new adventures through The Land of Ooo. The top-rated Cartoon Network show now has its own comic book! With the show exploding in the ratings, garnering rave online reviews, major cosplay at the San Diego Comic-Con, and huge displays dominating the New York Comic Con, it's clear fandom is obsessed and 2012 is the Year of Adventure Time! Don't miss out on this new phenomenon!


AVENGERS AND ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN
Celebrate Halloween with two thrilling tales featuring everyone's favorite Wall-Crawler and the Earth's Mightiest Heroes! It can't get any better than free Spider-Man and Avengers comics, so don't forget to stop into your local comic shop and pick up a copy!


AXE COP MINI COMIC
Created by six year--old Malachai Nicolle and illustrated by his older brother, the cartoonist Ethan Nicolle,. Whether he's fighting gun-toting dinosaurs, or teaming up with Ninja Moon Warriors the adventures of Axe Cop and his incomparable team of crime fighters will delight and perplex even the most stoic of readers. This ashcan features the origin story of Axe Cop and the Halloween special 'The Night Monster.'


BATMAN SCOOBY DOO HALLOWEEN FEST #1
Just in time for Halloween, it's a FREE all-ages flip-book comic reprinting classic BATMAN and SCOOBY-DOO tales!
In his side of the comic, The Dark Knight meets Gotham City's new vigilante, the Cavalier, and battles the evil of Ra's Al Ghul in stories from BATMAN ADVENTURES #1 and #4.
And in the other side, the Mystery Inc. Gang tries to get to the bottom of "The Costume Caper," in a story from SCOOBY-DOO, WHERE ARE YOU? #2.


GHOSTBUSTERS MINI COMIC
First time in print! A long-dead gangster is terrorizing Times Square, wreaking horrific havoc on a building that once housed a spirited speakeasy. But the place is now a toy store, and when the ghostly gangster starts shooting ectoplasmic bullets at terrified patrons, the Ghosbusters - Egon, Ray, Peter, and Winston - are called in to nab the speakeasy spook! Written by Brian Lynch (Angel, Spike, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and illustrated Marcelo Mueller (Lady Death, Aliens), Ghostbusters: Time Scare! serves as a hauntingly hilarious gateway into IDW's smash-hit line of Ghostbusters comics!


TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES #1 TRICK-OR-TREAT ED
Trick or... Turtles?! Presenting an all-new free edition of the IDW Publishing debut of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Featuring a cast of familiar characters - Master Splinter, April O'Neill, Casey Jones, and more - and true to the spirit of the original comics created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are bigger and badder than ever, and here's where it started!

These comics will be available on Saturday 27th October.

Any customer spending £5 or more in store on that day will be able to choose one free comic from the six titles above.

Supplies are very, very limited, so we won't have the vast wealth of freebies we have on Free Comic Book Day I'm afraid. To avoid disappointment, get down early on Halloween! It is new comic day as well, so it shouldn't be hardship!
