🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️ Free Comic Book Day on May 3 was action-packed at Lincolnwood Library!

Thanks to a generous donation from Zombie Unicorn Comics, visitors picked up free comics and joined in on comic-themed crafts and photo ops with some truly super guests—Captain America and Wonder Woman!

The heroes read stories to excited young fans and led a fun-filled “Superhero Academy,” where kids got to test their skills and earn their superhero status. It was a fantastic day celebrating reading, imagination, and all things heroic!
