Participate in the sure-win lucky dip with a minimum spend of SG$150.00, or get a free Deadpool 2 wristband if you buy any comic book in English. For just $20 or $50, get a graphic novel, collectible, figurine, stationery, DVD, or Blu-ray worth far above the price you’re paying with the cash-and-carry Lucky Bags. It’s only while stocks last, so you should definitely head to the Main Store at Takashimaya to stand a chance to grab something great!

Besides these, there are also a couple of events running on the day that you might be interested to check out.

At 2 pm, members of the local comics industry will gather at the Main Store for a panel celebrating the works of the late Morgan Chia, a Singaporean political cartoonist responsible for works like My Singapore, Tiananmen, Madam Kwa: The Life Of Mrs Lee Kuan Yew and L.K.Y: Political Cartoons.

At 4pm, meet the artists and writers of Comics of Singapore Histories (COSH) as they discuss the ideas behind works like Coalition of the Savoury Spare Parts by Oh Yong Hwee & Koh Hong Teng, Guidebook to Nanyang Diplomacy by Lim Cheng Tju & Benjamin Chee, Final Resting Place by James Tan, We’ll Eat When We’re Done by Dave Chua & Max Loh, Unstable Foundations by Joelyn Alexandra & Elvin Ching, Kungfu Dough by Don Low and Terumbu by Cheah Sinann. You can also get a peek behind the scenes in the drawing demonstration segment!

Besides these, there will also be FCBD 2018 T-shirts and merchandise available.

Besides Kino, GnB Comics are also celebrating the day, but in REAL Free Comic Book style: get down there and grab your free comic books! Besides this, you can also grab a cool Deadpool poster printed in the US. This is limited to the first 100 only, so hurry down!
