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. It’s actually not the first glimpse of this story, as it has been running as a webcomic on the Webtoon platform, but of course the book will look different. The […]

Review: ‘Calla Cthulhu’

Calla Cthulhu Writers: Evan Dorkin and Sarah Dyer Artists: Erin Humiston and Mario A. Gonzalez Dark Horse Books; $12.99 Rated 14+ The mythos of cosmic horror that H.P. Lovecraft created and curated during his short writing career has always proved a curiously inviting and creatively fertile milieu for other writers to work in, on, and […]

Interview: John Allison on ‘Bad Machinery’

August 31, 2016 by Brigid Alverson

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. Bad Machinery started out as a webcomic, and you can still read the original in its entirety at Allison’s site (start here, and set aside some time). Then Oni Press […]

Review: ‘The Adventures of Supergirl #1’

January 26, 2016 by J. Caleb Mozzocco

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. Not with the new TV show of that title airing on CBS, or, at least, not exactly. Everyone seems to love the show itself, which has proven to […]

Review In Real Life

October 30, 2014 by J. Caleb Mozzocco

In Real Life Written by Cory Doctorow Drawn by Jen Wang First Second; $17.99 The story of a young woman who is also an avid gamer, In Real Life is a rather timely graphic novel—but not for the reasons you might expect (or dread), if you’ve been following the depressing news over the course of […]

Review: The Professor Garfield Toon-Book Reader

August 4, 2014 by Esther Keller

The other day, I saw a post on GNLIB responding to a request about children’s graphic novels that can be read online. One of the responses mentioned The Professor Garfield Toon-Book Reader, which is part of the Toon Books website. I have a feeling I already knew about this part of their site, but it never stayed […]

Korak for Kids: A Talk with Ron Marz

April 22, 2014 by Michael May

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 […]

Exclusive Web Comic | ‘A Tale of Two Pennies’

March 12, 2014 by Michael May

Sometimes, blogging about good comics for kids means presenting some actual good comics for kids. 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

January 6, 2014 by Lori Henderson

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 […]
