Celebrate Comics and Creativity in Ocoee Florida on May 3rd

Something awesome is heading to Ocoee, and if you love comics, you’re going to want to be part of it. Free Comic Book Day is back on Saturday, May 3rd, 2025, and West Orange Comics and Video Games is the place where it all goes down. Doors open at 10 AM, and from the moment they do, it’s a full day of free comic books, cool guests, and nonstop fun.

There’s no catch here—just grab a comic and enjoy. Whether you’ve been coming for years or you’ve never stepped foot inside a comic shop before, this is the perfect chance to dive into something new, connect with fellow fans, and see what all the hype is about. It’s a day built for longtime collectors, curious newcomers, and families just looking for something fun to do together.

This year’s guest lineup is packed with creative firepower. Gary Barker, the legendary artist who’s helped bring Garfield the Cat to life, will be at the shop sharing stories and signing for fans. Joining him is PitchGrim, the creative force behind the art direction at Santa Cruz Skateboards—his style is bold, wild, and instantly recognizable. And for those who love monsters, makeup, and movie magic, Scott Fensterer will be there too. You might recognize him from the SyFy Channel’s Face Off, where he made it to the finals with his jaw-dropping special effects. He’s also the producer of Monster Manor TV, so expect plenty of behind-the-scenes stories.

Visitors can snap photos, grab autographs, and chat with these creative minds in person. Add in the energy of fellow fans, the thrill of finding free comics you’ve never read before, and maybe even a little swag, and it’s easy to see why this day is such a big deal.

The action starts at 10 AM sharp, and it’s first come, first served—so showing up early is a smart move. Free Comic Book Day only rolls around once a year, and West Orange Comics and Video Games always knows how to throw a party. If you’re anywhere near Ocoee, make plans now and don’t miss this epic celebration of comics, community, and creativity.
