Snarked! is the new comic from Roger Langridge, who wrote and illustrated many of Boom! Studios’ Muppet Show comics and was also the writer of Marvel’s Thor: The Mighty Avenger. When Disney took back the license on those, Langridge moved on to his own comic, Snarked!, a con-man comedy starring Lewis Carroll’s characters The Walrus […]
Time for some vintage Disney goodness: Disney’s Four-Color Adventures, vol. 1, which came out a few weeks ago from BOOM! Studios, collects all of Dell’s Four Color #4 and #13 (yes, the name of the comic was “Four Color,” I guess because it was published during the Age of Duotone). According to David Gerstein’s very […]
Korgi 3: A Hollow Beginning is the third of Christian Slade’s wordless Korgi graphic novels, and it traces the origin story of the Korgi Hollow where all of the animals live after they find a shard of stained glass that holds some clues to the story. Interestingly, the flashback part is told in a simpler, […]
Top Shelf is debuting two children’s books at Small Press Expo in Bethesda, Maryland, this weekend, but as a public service to those of you who couldn’t make the trip, we are going to present previews of both this weekend. James Kochalka is one of those rare creators who can make books that resonate for […]
Pirate Penguin and Ninja Chicken are the best of friends—and the worst of enemies. They fight a lot, but their fights usually end up with them making up, sharing a smoothie, or sneaking away to avoid getting in trouble. Ray Friesen’s Pirate Penguin vs. Ninja Chicken is a colorful, cheerful, goofy book that’s a lot […]
We have something special for you this weekend, thanks to the folks at Top Shelf: Okie Dokie Donuts, by Chris “Elio” Eliopoulos, the first volume of what he plans to be a series of graphic novels set in Big Mama’s Donut Shop. Eliopoulos has a charming, if rather busy, retro style, and his story is […]
The first Archie Freshman Year book was a big hit, both in print and digitally—at one point, the first issue was the most downloaded comic on iTunes—so it’s not surprising that the Archie Comics folks have come up with a follow-up. In the first book, Jughead and his family left Riverdale for Montana (a possible […]
Our preview is a bit late this week, but it’s worth the wait: We have the first ten pages of the WordGirl graphic novel, based on the Emmy-winning TV show of the same name. WordGirl dominated Kids’ Day of NYCC a few years ago, and now she has her own comic, WordGirl: Coalition of Malice, […]
Today’s preview is from Archie Double Digest #221, due out in comics shops this week. Take a look at the credits on these pages, and you will see that several were written by J. Torres, the writer of Alison Dare, Lola: A Ghost Story, and Days Like This; he has also done some work for […]
Usually our Saturday previews here at Good Comics for Kids are of light-hearted all-ages comics. This week, we’re featuring a book that’s a little different: One Soul, by Ray Fawkes, a book that stretches the storytelling abilities of sequential art by telling the life story, from birth to death, of 18 different people, all living […]
