Exclusive First Look at ‘Scurry’ | Preview
We’re kicking off the week with an exclusive first look at Scurry, an upcoming graphic novel from Image’s young-readers imprint Skybound Comet in February 2023.

Interview: John Allison on ‘Bad Machinery’
John Allison’s Bad Machinery is a cheeky, funny story about English schoolchildren who solve mysteries, and now it’s coming out in a new, easier-to-read format.

Review: ‘The Adventures of Supergirl #1’
The Adventures of Supergirl #1 Writer: Sterling Gates Artist: Bengal DC, $0.99 (digital) Rated 12+ DC has had something of a Supergirl problem for a while now.

Korak for Kids: A Talk with Ron Marz
I grew up a Tarzan fan, which by definition means that I discovered him as a kid. A lot of people my age did. And while Edgar Rice Burroughs struggled to balance his own desire to write for grown-ups with his work’s extraordinary appeal to children, it’s undeniable that young people responded to the ape […]

Troy Wilson (Perfect Man) and Caleb Hystad (Raven Tales) have given Good Comics for Kids permission to post first, in its entirety, their adorable tale of a girl and two pennies. Hystad is an animation director best known for the […]
A Mom’s Journey Into Homestuck Part 5B
Coming in late to a series can have its advantages. My kids were telling me that when Cascade, the final flash that closes out Act 5, came out, they couldn’t watch it immediately. So many people wanted to watch it, and it was so big—it’s 12 minutes long—that the site kept crashing. Hussie eventually had […]
