Marvel Announces 2024 Trick-Or-Read Halloween Comics

Halloween is typically associated with candy, but there are other treats that one might get. One of these is comic books, thanks to the Trick-or-Read program. Marvel Comics has announced five titles that will be reprinted in 2024, as part of the initiative.

Born of the same spirit as Free Comic Book Day, Trick-or-Read is a community event based around encouraging literacy in young readers. It is also an excellent promotional opportunity for the participating publishers and comic shops. While most of the comics are appropriate for all-ages, there are some that are aimed at older kids.
