This is a look at the new all age comics that are OK for young readers. Some of these comics are also great for any reader :) We’ll review some of them and provide as thorough a list of all the new titles coming out that Wednesday.
Kaboom Studios makes some of the best all age comic books on the market. From Garfield, Herobear, Peanuts to Regular Show and others they put out a great variety of books. Adventure Time is as inventive, creative, weird and wonderful as the television show. There is nothing objectionable to young readers and the sole reason for putting (almost) in the title is that younger readers won’t be able to follow the plot.

A couple of weeks ago we reviewed Jim Henson’s, The Storyteller Witches. Recap, it’s a dreamy, fascinating, utterly entertaining all ages comic that girls will like more than boys. Fraggle Rock: Journey to the Everspring is a four issue mini-series from Archaia Entertainmet that is Fraggle awesome with art that makes you smile and a story that makes you want to read it to your children.

The Storyteller Witches #1 is an interesting comic. It has Jim Henson’s name above it and is published by Archaia, who handles all of the Fraggle Rock comics, so the bar and fond memories are set high. Think Dark Crystal and this is in the same vein. Better yet, think The Storyteller television series that Henson created from the late 80’s and you have a much better idea of the tone and expectations of The Storyteller Witches #1.

The Simpsons Family History: A Celebration of Television’s Favorite Family is not what I expected but I am 100% OK with that. I expected a blow by blow account of how each episode is made and some photos from the animators and voice over artists doing their craft. In reality the book is soup to nuts how Marge and Homer met, fell in love, had kids and found Santa’s Little Helper. It features art that is taken from the source that reminds viewers of the art that is at the root of the longest-running American sitcom, longest-running animated series and longest- running primetime scripted series.

Holy cosplay! Dragon Con yielded an amazing amount of things to see & do-and it’s not even over yet. After two days at Dragon Con here are some of the best images that we’ve taken. What was great about today’s visit is that we met a large amount of families and kids in costume that really drove home what a family friendly event Dragon Con can be. Enjoy the photos!

Kang & Kodos, the space aliens from The Simpsons are two of our favorite characters from the show. They’re the animated, alien equivalent of Statler and Waldorf from the Muppets. Two sets of characters that both have great one liners, are sometimes present, but haven’t gone too far in regular episodes. Because of that, The Simpsons have always used Kang & Kodos sparingly and usually on the Halloween episode. Their first solo shot in comics is appropriately called Kang & Kodos and is very rewarding for fans of the show.

Hero Cats of Stellar City is the story of 6 cats with super hero powers. All of them can read and communicate, but some of them can build robots, read minds or have other super powers. You’re not into cats so this all age’s comic isn’t for you or your children? Don’t worry because it turns out that Stellar City also have a couple of humans with super powers, in addition to some baddies that will come forth in future issues.

When we took a look at Skyward #6 it was awesome. The series was a fabulous tour de force all ages comic that captured the attention of parents and children. The final arc of The Battle For Three Rivers ends in issue #9 of Skyward and it’s still very good, but left me wanting more.
