Free Comic Book Day is back! Join us on Saturday, May 2, 2026, for the biggest event in the comic book industry.

Visit any Santa Clara City Library branch to grab your FREE comics while supplies last! We have a fantastic selection of titles for all ages—youth, teens, and adults alike. If you can't find the giveaway area, just ask one of our friendly staff members for help. Plus, make sure to use your library card to check out even more graphic novels from our curated shelves!

FCBD celebrates the idea that there is a comic out there for everyone. Whether you’re a die-hard collector or just curious, there’s something for every taste.

A huge thank you to Illusive Comics & Games for helping us bring this event to Santa Clara every year, and the generous support from our Santa Clara City Foundation and Friends for making this happen. Find out more ways you can support the library by visiting lovethelibrary.org

Get ready—we’re doing it all again for Santa Clara Comic-Con on October 10, 2026! Details at sclibrary.org/comic-con.
