Mr. Stuffins TP – The tagline for this series is "My teddy bear’s a secret agent!"  A scientist who created an AI for the government, hides it in an ordinary mechanical bear when he learns the military wants to use it for a weapon.  A family buys the bear, and the little boy soon learns his new friend has the skills of James Bond!  But the military wants the AI back, so it’s up to Mr. Stuffins to protect his new family from harm.  Written by Andrew Crosby and Johanna Stokes, creator and staff writer for the TV show Eureka, you just know this series will be filled with outrageous situations and chaos breaking out when you least expect it!  This trade collects the first 3 issues. 

Chronicles of Arthur GN Vol1 Sword Of Fire & Ice – Tales of King Arthur have been a perennial favorite with kids.  John Matthews, a well known expert in Arthurian legend, adds to these tales with a new series about Arthur before he was king.  This first volume introduces the teen Arthur and starts him on the adventures that will give him the life lessons he needs to prepare him for the responsibilities he will later take on as King.  With Knights, adventure and a little magic, this title has all the makings of a great series for kids.
