Believe it or not, we’re already talking about Free Comic Book Day 2025, and Marvel Comics has officially unveiled its lineup.
The freebies cometh
It is kind of hard to believe that Free Comic Book Day is already being talked about, but that is indeed the case. The yearly freebie day at comics shops, which serves up a select list of specially-made titles from across the industry, is May 3rd, 2025.
It’s once again looking like fans will find a solid selection of free books to take home too, as Marvel Comics just unveiled its offerings. The list includes the likes of the Fantastic Four, X-Men, Spider-Man, and more, for a total of five titles will be up for grabs at participating retailers. There sounds like there’ll be more as well, but Marvel isn’t set to say what just yet.
The publisher fans should expect additional news “in the months ahead”. In the meantime though, scroll down for the current list from Marvel, and make sure to check in with your local comics shop to make sure they’ll be taking part in Free Comic Book Day 2025.
