FCBD 2015: Comic Odyssey | Fully Booked Update!

05.01.2015 – Comic Odyssey and Fully Booked can be considered the stores that s reintroduced Free Comic Book Day in the Philippines. Both companies has have been successful organizing comic-related events even before FCBD was established.

It’s the only place people would remember to attend the annual Free Comic Book Day since Comic Odyssey (2007) and Fully Booked (2008) started this event.



There are other shops participating this year but what makes both this company the place to be this Free Comic Book Day is not only the free comics they give out its about the activities they have put into this event.



The Partnerships in FCBD

For this year they have been teasing Philippine exclusive FCBD shirts and comic book in Filipino known as “Araw ng Libreng Komiks”. Comic Odyssey began producing localized shirts and collaborating with Komikon Inc the organizers of the annual Philippines Komiks Convention also known as Komikon to produce an exclusive FCBD title that features all-Filipino material since 2012.

The collaboration got even bigger when Fully Booked who originally held their FCBD events in the third Saturday of May since 2008 has finally team-up with Comic Odyssey who is the one giving away more FCBD titles.

For this year the art theme featured for FCBD will be handled by Tepai Pascual co-creator of Filipino komiks in Noodle Boy and Maktan 21 to name a few of her works under the Meganon publication. The lady depicted in the new “Araw ng Libreng Komiks” logo will be the design for this year’s shirt and cover for the localized version of the exclusive FCBD title.
