If you live in the southeast it’s only a scant couple of weeks before Dragon Con! Held over Labor Day in Atlanta it’s one of the nation’s largest cons, has massive fan sessions, an entire building (almost) full of collectibles, a parade that will leave you in awe and a crowd that will be about 70,000 deep. Don’t let that number scare you off, the parade is a must see for families and really is quite fun-even though some of the costumes are a bit too scary for the small kids.
Now-on with the new all age comics! Archie has been rebooted and is really fun, #2 comes out this week and is a great read for girls OR boys. Yeah, I said it. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic #33 comes out this week too, again, it’s OK if the boys read it. There are two TMNT books out this week, #49 from the comic series and Mutanimals TBP, that collects a series of issues from the comic.
Our favorite release this week though isn’t even a comic, but it is all age appropriate and Star Wars. Star Wars Original Topps Trading Card Series Vol. 1. It collects all five of the series for the first Star Wars film in their Topps Trading Card glory in book form. These aren’t the original cards, it’s a book of the original cards, plus the trivia, stickers, story summaries, puzzle cards-everything except the gum.
