May 4, 2013 by Brigid Alverson   Leave a Comment

Today is Free Comic Book Day, the national holiday that celebrates all things sequential. Check the official website for a list of comic book stores that will be offering special FCBD comics to all comers today—and the site also has a list of the comics.

And to tide you over, here are a series of preview images from Archaia’s FCBD comic. Archaia publishes a number of very nice children’s and all-ages titles, and this is a sampler of a single page from six different comics: Pantalones, Texas; Rust; Bolivar; Cow Boy; Labyrinth; and Mouse Guard. Enjoy!
