Marvel Has Revealed The Five Comic Books For The Company’s Annual Halloween Giveaway Event, Trick or Read.

Marvel has revealed the five comic books that will make up its lineup for the company’s annual Halloween giveaway event, Trick or Read.

The event, held at participating comic book stores, is a holiday-themed variation on the iconic annual Free Comic Book Day event, in which readers can stop by their local comic book store and receive a free comic book for Halloween instead of candy. Of course, do note that the stores pay for these “free” comic book stores, so it would always be nice to “treat” the stores with some business on the other days of the year. The choices for this year’s lineup is an electic mixture of books from Marvel’s superhero line and its Star Wars line (plus some comics specifically meant for younger readers).

The three comics from Marvel’s superhero line of comics include:

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: THE BIRTH OF TOMBSTONE #1 reprints AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #3 by writer Zeb Wells and John Romita Jr., a key early chapter of Spider-Man’s current era. Witness a brutal battle between Spider-Man and Tombstone that proves without doubt that Tombstone is Spidey’s most terrifying foe! Tombstone will play a major role in an AMAZING SPIDER-MAN event later this year and it all took root here as this iconic villain’s haunting origin is revealed for the first time!

CAPTAIN MARVEL: HIGHER, FASTER, FURTHER #1 reprints CAPTAIN MARVEL (2012) #1 by writer Kelly Sue Deconnick and artist Dexter Soy, the start of Deconnick’s groundbreaking run that took Carol Danvers from “Ms. Marvel” to Captain Marvel!
