It’s another new comic book day and with it comes dozens of cool new all age comic books. In the podcast we’ll chat about a new Adventure Time mini-series, the DC/Hanna Barbera mash up, Dodo and more. However, for now let’s look at three all age comic books that will interest boys or girls as young as 6 years old.
Pink Panther 55th Anniversary
A 55th anniversary is not a landmark type event like 25 or 50, but if it’s got Pink Panther in it then our 6 year old will be game for it. The Pink Panther comic books from American Mythology have been a staple in our house since they resurrected the characters a couple of years ago. Pink Panther 55th Anniversary Special #1 has some new stories, a couple classic ones and some one-page funnies. Our now 8 year-old had loved this since this new incarnation and yours will too.
Black Lightning/Hong Kong Fuey
Hong Kong Fuey, the classic Hanna Barbera character sets up a detective agency in the inner city. Black Lightning has discovered a plot by three assassins to discover the secret to a martial arts magic that’s being held by dog. Take my money. If you remember Hong Kong Fuey and some of the other Hanna Barbera characters from the 70’s you’ll run to get this one-shot issue
Sonic the Hedgehog #5
Sonic the Hedgehog is on a roll. He’s five issues into his new regular series for all age comic books and most of the issues have been through two printings! That’s a big deal, it means the people like the story, enjoy the action and are eager to purchase more Sonic the Hedgehog. Issue #5 of Sonic the Hedgehog is a great starting point because it’s the first one of a multi-book arc that’s bound to entertain kids 6 and up.
