Every year, typically the first Saturday of May, comic book shops across the United States participate in Free Comic Book Day, a fun event where a diverse group of comic books are printed up and offered for free to anyone who wants them. The goal is to encourage people to visit their local comic shop and explore all it has to offer.

In years past, many of the comics offered were based on video game tie-ins and this year is no different. Comics based on Life is Strange and Assassin’s Creed appear to be listed as free this year. You can get a full list of what free comics are going to be offered, and a list of participating shops, here.

The next game in the Life is Strange franchise was revealed at this year’s E3 to be coming next month. However, a heartfelt message went out to the community earlier today revealing that while the game will still make its September 10th release date on most platforms, its Nintendo Switch version and the highly anticipated remaster of the original Life is Strange games will need more time.

But all is not awful. We got our first look at the game’s first major DLC, Wavelengths. Here’s the trailer.

Life is Strange: True Colors is coming to PC, Xbox One, PS4, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S September 10th, 2021. It’s coming to Nintendo Switch later in the year. Life is Strange: Remastered is coming in 2022.

Gaming History You Should Know – Epic Mickey: What Might Have Been August 8, 2021

It’s Sunday, and that means it’s time for yet another Gaming History You Should Know, where we share some of the most interesting videos we’ve found across the web detailing the history of games.

Mickey Mouse has been an enduring figure of popular culture ever since he first appeared in the short film Steamboat Willie. Since the advent of gaming, he has appeared in countless video games (of varying quality). In 2009, Disney Interactive made a huge push for a new type of game lead by Game God Warren Spector, Epic Mickey. Despite favorable reviews, an original art style, and decent sales, the franchise eventually dissolved following a disappointing sequel.

Nowadays, everyone barely remembers the franchise, and most of Mickey’s gaming fans returned to playing the Kingdom Hearts games. But did you know, before they pulled the plug, Disney was banking on delivering a lot more Epic Mickey games? I didn’t. DidYouKnowGaming, who is legendary for being one of the biggest references on the internet for game history trivia, produced this fantastic in-depth dive into the history of the games’ development, and what we lost following the closure of Junction Point. Check it out.

Disney’s Epic Mickey is out now for the Wii. Epic Mickey 2 is out now for the Wii U, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Guardians of the Galaxy is coming October 26th, 2021 for the Xbox One, PS4, PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
