Garfield #1 – Everyone’s favorite lasagna-eating cat comes to KaBoom with a new comic book series. Garfield gets his own ongoing series along with his friends Jon, Odie, and the rest of the gang. In the first issue, Nermal finds a rare comic in the trash and takes it to Jon to sell. Will Garfield get the lasagna of his dreams from the proceeds? The series is written by Mark Evanier, hand-picked by Jim Davis to bring his creation to comic book pages, so you can be sure the stories will remain true to the characters. This is a must for Garfield fans young and old.
Three Stooges Volume 1 – A classic comedy trio returns to tickle the funny bone of a new generation! The Three Stooges return with not just a new major motion picture, but also a new graphic novel series from Papercutz. In the first volume, stooges Moe, Larry and Curly work as exterminators, go to a Sumo Wrestling School, get on the set of a Spaghetti Western, and make it all the way to Hollywood! This new series is a great way to introduce a new generation to all the slapstick fun of eye-pokes and gags that made the comedy trio the icons they are today. Don’t pass this title up! It’s perfect for libraries and collections of all ages. And check out a preview of the first volume here at Good Comics For Kids!
