This Saturday, all around the globe  comic book fans will have an opportunity to show their hidden passion openly and without shame to the world as it is officially ”Read Comics in Public” Day.

Read Comics in Public Day is the brainchild of  Sarah Morean and Brian Heater, who run The Daily Cross Hatch :

“The concept is fairly simple: we’re asking that everyone take an hour or two out of their day on August 28th (also the birthday of Jack “King” Kirby, incidentally) to read a comic book in a public setting—a park bench, a beach, a bus, the front steps of your local library (we do ask, however, that you be mindful of local loitering laws). Let strangers see you reading a piece of sequential art.”

So grab a stack of comics on Saturday and head outside, it’s time to freak out normal people!

Description: “A flashmob infiltrates the Westin St. Francis hotel in San Francisco and performs an adaptation of Lady Gaga’s song “Bad Romance.” The event was organized to draw attention to a boycott called by the workers of the hotel who are fighting to win a fair contract and affordable healthcare. Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer activists put the song and dance together as a creative way to tell the hundreds of thousands of LGBTQ people from all over the country coming to San Francsico in June for Pride to stay out of the boycotted hotels.”
