This week in new all age comic books is dominated by one set of characters we regularly see and one publisher with a very specific niche. The other things that apparent more so than other weeks is just how overly kid-friendly all of the comic books and graphic novels are this week. In any direction you look there’s an all age comic book for readers as young as 6. Over in the podcast we’ll chat about the Disney comic books, the new Capstone superhero releases, Teen Titans Go! To The Movies, Steven Universe and more. For now though let’s look at three new releases that’ll engage readers in elementary school and up.
Justice League, You Choose, The Portal of Doom
Black Manta has unleashed lots of monsters all over the place and the Justice League has to stop them. Justice League You Choose, The Portal of Doom offers young readers the chance to re-tell the tale in a number of different ways. Most members of the Justice League get a shot to shine in this book that caters to grades 1 through 4 will enjoy. There are 12 possible endings, all of which offer young readers the chance to root for the good guys.
Gravity Falls, Lost Legends
Like Plants Vs. Zombies, this graphic novel from Gravity Falls is mandatory reading for elementary aged kids. They loved the show on Disney and the comic books or stand-alone books were very entertaining when they came out. Lost Legends is an original graphic novel with four new stories as they are told by Shmebulock. We’re now crossing our fingers for more Phineas & Ferb comic books or graphic novels and asking nicely to the Disney folks in bookland.
Delilah Dirk and the Pillars of Hercules
Delilah Dirk and the Pillars of Hercules is the third book in this action series by Tony Cliff. It’s realistically drawn and colored, plus it has action out the wazoo in an Indiana Jones style. Because of that, this graphic novel is going to be suited to middle to upper-middle school readers and up. Younger readers probably won’t want to read it due to its realistic approach. Older readers, even those not in school, will enjoy the intelligent story, action and characters in this great example of a graphic novel that entertains on many levels.
