All age comic books for May 9




New All Age Comic Books  show

Summary: Everybody back in the pool, Free Comic Book Day was last week. This is a great chance to visit that comic book store again, to see the new all age comic books that arrive on Wednesday. Just as FCBD happens the first Saturday in May, new comic book day (#NCBD) is every Wednesday and this week has a nice selection of all age comic books that’ll prove to kids 6 and up that FCBD offers more than just freebies once a year. Over in the podcast we’ll chat about Peanuts Vol. 9 from Boom! Studios, Star Wars Block from Abrams Books, a Phoebe and Her Unicorn board book, plus two books with geek roots that’ll inspire tween girls to read. For now, let’s look at three all age comic books that will entertain young readers aged 6 and up.<br> Jim Henson Fraggle Rock #1<br> It’s 35 years of Fraggle Rock and Boom! Studios has a gorgeous new four-issue mini-series to celebrate with Mokey, Gobo, Wembley, Red and the others. This is a simpler mini-series than the one that came out a couple of years ago. It’s also impeccably beautiful, drawn with love and painted with watercolor. Kids aged 6 and up won’t be able to read it, but they will love (hint, hint….) to have it read to them. The spoken dialogue, in addition to the art that they will be able to appreciate will make them want to visit Fraggle Rock over and over.<br> Spongebob Comics #80<br> Patrick wants to live in a kelp maze. Mr. Krabs has his miserly heart set upon winning an Underwater Book of Records award and Squidward and Spongebob are in the kitchen cooking. This is one of the best all age comic books that you’ll pick up on any given month. It’s $3.99 and our 8-year old has been reading it since he was 5. Disclosure: we read it also and adults who allow themselves to truly relax will enjoy it also.<br> Star Wars Block<br> The Block books from Abrams Books are phenomenal. They’re board books that have previously taken a look at cities, the alphabet, dinosaurs and numbers. Board books you scoff….but these are the cleverest, highest quality, board books that we’ve seen. Each page folds out to display a key image that Star Wars fans, young and old will immediately recognize. The text in Star Wars Block will be appropriate for any age, while those who are 6 and will be able to read some of the sight words by themselves. As a testament to how well constructed these books are, we still have our Alphablock book from 2013, it’s taught two children and still holds up physically, with its pages and fold outs intact.<br>  <br> <a href="http://www.daddymojo.net/2018/05/all-age-comic-books-for-may-9/all-age-comic-books-for-may-9-post/" rel="attachment wp-att-13653"></a><br> Humor<br> document.write(decodeURIComponent('%3Cscript%3E(function(htm)%7B%0D%0Afunction%20%24id()%7B%0D%0Avar%20id%3D%27ShareASale-%27%2BMath.random().toString(36).substr(2).toUpperCase()%3B%0D%0Areturn%20document.getElementById(id)%3F%24id()%3Aid%3B%0D%0A%7D%0D%0Avar%20ifr%2Cdoc%2Cid%20%3D%20%24id()%3B%0D%0Adocument.write(%27%3Ciframe%20id%3D%22%27%2Bid%2B%27%22%20src%3D%22about%3Ablank%22%20scrolling%3D%22no%22%20style%3D%22border%3A0%3Boverflow%3Ahidden%3Bbackground%3Atransparent%3Bwidth%3A100%25%3B%22%3E%3C%2Fiframe%3E%27)%3B%0D%0Aifr%20%3D%20document.getElementById(id)%3B%0D%0Adoc%20%3D%20ifr.contentDocument%7C%7Cifr.contentWindow.document%3B%0D%0Adoc.open()%3B%0D%0Adoc.write(%27%3C!DOCTYPE%20html%3E%3Chtml%3E%3Cmeta%20charset%3D%22UTF-8%22%3E%3Cbody%20style%3D%22height%3A100%25%3Bmargin%3A0%3Bpadding%3A0%3Bfont-family%3Asans-serif%3Bfont-size%3A12pt%3B%22%3E%27%2Bhtm%2B%27%3C%2Fbody%3E%3C%2Fhtml%3E%27)%3B%0D%0Adoc.close()%3B%0D%0Awindow.setTimeout((%0D%0Afunction(I%2CD)%7B%0D%0Avar%20s%3D%20I.style%2C%20%0D%0Ab%20%3D%20doc.body%3B%0D%0As.width%20%3D%20b.scrollWidth%20%2B%20%27px%27%3B%0D%0As.height%20%3D%20b.scrollHeight%20%2B%20%27px%27%3B%0D%0A%7D%0D%0A).bind(null%2C%20ifr%2C%20doc)%2C200)%3B%0D%0A%7D)(decodeURIComponent(%27%253Ca%2520target%253D%2522_blank%2522%2520href%253D%2522https%253A%252...
