Dig the hint of fall in the air and that means Dragon Con is near! September 4-7 in downtown Atlanta is one of the biggest cosplay extravaganzas that you’ll see. Hundreds of panels on big name movies, the tv shows that you love, games, costumes and so much more. The parade on Saturday is a must see, as are any of the panels, but you’ll have a hoot just walking around the area. Some of the hotels will require identification to get into, the entire weekend is packed with about 65,000 in town, so bring your patience. Now-on with the new all age comic books this week!
If you’re looking proof of how giddy and fun an all age comic can be just check out the preview for Adventure Time. Finn and Jake break into Party God’s yacht to try to clear their names. For ages 8 and up this is sheer silliness that will have them laughing, even that made me chuckle. Dreamwork’s Classics, Ghostbusters Get Real #3, Jimbo Jones, Over the Garden Wall, two old-school Peanuts re-releases and much more come out. It is a busy week for all age comics and a great chance to get into a title that suits your reader’s age and personality.
Princeless Be Yourself is a great fantasy comic that kids 8 and up will like. Surely you (or especially your daughter) is reading Lumberjanes? It’s an all age comic that is great for anyone, but especially so for that demographic. There are also three Star Wars cooking appliances that are out of this world awesome, how about an AT-AT and Star Destroyer Ice Cube tray?
