New all age comics for April 5, 2017

April 04, 2017

Now THIS is a good week for all age comics. If you went to the comic book store looking for new books for all age readers and were left wanting more then get back on the horse. Classics, to true classics to new ones that the kids will love are all represented this week. Here are five great all age comics that will interest readers as young as five.
Angry Birds: Flight School #2
Adults who are new to the all age comics scene might scoff at the concept of a video game becoming a comic book. Then they’ll read one of the Angry Birds titles, realize that there is real comedy in these comics and re-think their position. Angry Birds: Flight School is a new spin of mini-series that’s quite entertaining and will leave all ages wanting more. The vocabulary is too difficult for a 5 year old, but the content is great for a read-along book.
Donald Duck/ Mickey Mouse
These two are mentioned together because their reading level, as well as enjoyment level is very similar for ages 7 and up. We read Mickey Mouse to our 5 year old at night and he loves to follow along to the pictures. The stories in both titles might have been previously published in Europe. That’s evident from some of the background art that looks more classic that suburban. However, that fact won’t influence young readers who want to laugh along to adventures with classic Disney characters.

Revolution Aw Yeah #1
Revolution gets the Art Baltazar treatment. His distinct art style is what many consider the template for all age comics. This is the first issue that follows some key IDW properties like G.I. JOE, Micronauts, Transformers and more. Revolution Aw Yeah #1 is good for ages 5 and up.
Scooby Doo-Where Are You? #80
Every two weeks there is a new Scooby Doo comic book and this week it’s Where Are You? #80. This title is funny, affordable (only $2.99!) and one that kids know, love and want to read.
Hero Cats #16
Cats aren’t your scene? You’ll still like Hero Cats and issue #16 is a new story point that is about cats, but also about action, science fiction, naps and more. This is one of the new, great all age comics because of how it’s evolved and improved since the first couple of issues. It did start as a cat series that was more girl-centric, but has evolved into a fun, weird title with action and cats as some of the heroes that will be great for boys or girls, ages 7 and up.
The music in the podcast is from Free The Whale. It’s some cool rock with instrumentals, blues and rockabilly that I think you’ll enjoy digging into.
