Best all age comics for November 16
The middle of November, relatives are coming into town or you are going on the road. What are the best all age comics that you need to make the road trip more tolerable? It could be a comic book or two at your otherwise comic-free house to entertain small people. There are some classic ones like Simpsons Comics and Sonic hitting stores, both of which are always dependable.
First off let’s start with the teens. There are two cool comic books that might fly under their radar. If you have a 13 year old boy or older and you want them to feel at home pick up either one of these two. He Man Thundercats #2 brings the two 80’s franchises together in a mash up that parents-in-the know will dig and teens who like middle Earth style action will also. The trailer for Kong: Skull Island is everything I hoped it would be. The comic book Kong of Skull Island has some incredibly impressive monster art, smashing, jungle scenes that are great for those same ages.
For the true all age comics there are seemingly sets of everything. There are two Archies. Archie #14 from Archie Comics is the more contemporary, updated version and Archie Comic Super Special #7 is the thicker, ‘classic’ Archie.
There are three Doctor Who comics, not including the final issue of Supremacy of the Cybermen min-series.
Scooby got a reboot, did you hear? Yeah, Scooby Apocalypse is the zombie Scooby that’s good for teen readers. Their most recent issue came out last week. This week sees Scooby Doo Where Are You #75 and Daphne has to get all warrior princess on some ghosts in order to help the team. This is a classic and every issue can be included as one of the best all age comics when you see it.
Our 5 year old may not know it, but he’s super excited about Donald Quest, a five issue mini-series starring steampunk Donald and his partner Mickey. Can our 5 year old read? No. But he loves looking at Donald Duck and this one is right up his alley. If Donald isn’t your scene there is also a new Uncle Scrooge, Mickey Mouse and Darkwing Duck available. The music in the podcast is from Halloween.
