Archaia has announced a graphic novel for Free Comic Book Day 2012.
Mouse Guard, Labyrinth and Other Stories will showcase the publisher's top titles, including Cursed Pirate Girl, Rust, Cow Boy and Dapper Men.
The graphic novel will be available free of charge on Saturday, May 5, when publishers aim to promote their comics to new readers.
"We've offered single issues for past Free Comic Book Days but Archaia's speciality is producing beautiful, hardbound collections," said Archaia president and CEO PJ Bickett.
"Offering a hardcover book for Free Comic Book Day is our way of helping to drive more potential customers to comic book stores on what has historically been their busiest sales day of the year.
"But it's also a way to educate readers on what Archaia is all about: high-quality graphic novel collections of stories they can't get anywhere else."
> Marjane Satrapi's 'The Sigh' published in English
> 'Buffy', 'Star Wars' books for Dark Horse's Free Comic Book Day
