And a Happy July 4th to you if you’re in the U.S.; plus a belated Canada Day to our friends up there. We also wish the cat meme of your choice if you’re reading this from elsewhere, now on with the new all age comic books for the week of July 4. Is your local comic book store open on July 4th? I don’t know, but check out Comic Book Store Locator, type in your zip code and you can contact them to check into that.
Over in the podcast we’ll chat about Hilda and the Stone Forest, a slew of Disney and DC books and a classic series of books that never go out of style with a new one this week. All of these are some of the top all age comic books for the week of July 4. In addition to that, check out these three, some of which are great for ages 5 and up.
Disney PIXAR Incredibles 2 one-shot
Have you seen Incredibles 2 yet? It’s a very good movie and proves that sequels to great PIXAR films can stand alone, even years after the first one, as worthy films that are entertaining and don’t feel like a rip off. Disney PIXAR and Joe Books take that good mojo off of the screen and into a one-shot comic book that is great for all ages. This concentrates on the family aspect of the Incredibles, expect lots of Jack-Jack, family humor and superhero action. It’ll be great for ages 5 and up, but those younger ages will need help reading the content.
True Believers Fantastic Four Coming of Galactus
True Believers is a series of comics that Marvel Comics puts out that reprints classic issues from their catalogue. Some of these issues are classics, like from the 60’s, while others are new classics like ones from the 90’s. The Coming of Galactus is an issue from the early 60’s that features Galactus and the FF. The kicker is that it’s only $1 and the content is great for any age as long as they like action. There is some reading, so younger ages won’t be able to read it without help, but they’ll love looking at the classic art.
Ghoul Scouts, I Was a Teenage Werewolf!
From the title Ghoul Scouts to the setting of this mini-series, Camp Lake Crystal, older readers know that their tongue should be fully in cheek. However, younger readers will be fully enthralled in this just-scary-enough mini-series from Action Lab Entertainment. Ghoul Scouts features five teens as they fight zombies and monsters, all the while navigating the difficult task of being a teenager and being in their home town. This is fun stuff that ages 8 and up will enjoy and parents can rest easy knowing that the content is OK too.
