I don’t read Simpsons Comics every month. I know Matt Groening and Bongo Comics would love for me to, but I have to draw my comic budget somewhere. The reason that I picked up Simpsons Illustrated #12 is that A. It’s The Simpsons and B. It’s much thicker than the monthly book for only $1 more. I’m glad that I got Simpsons Illustrated #12 because it is really funny and a bit different than the regular comic.

I am not just saying that Guardians of the Galaxy is the best comic book out there now simply because of the movie coming out. I tried to embrace Green Lantern prior to that movie, but the story and movie just didn’t hold my attention. I have high hopes for the Guardians movie and have been reading this incarnation of the comic book since it came out last year.

Sometimes in my search for the new and unique I forget the obvious. I’ve found some great new comics that are perfectly suited for young readers, notably Skyward-which is great all ages action. However, I’ve been reading Simpsons Comics for 21 years, it’s a great all ages comic that my son loves to read-when I let him.

I was priming my wife with all manner of questions about how to describe it. Some of her friends said coo, while other said have fun. Regardless, I knew that she was going with me to be with the boys, which was fine with me.

Oh, even though ours was a comic con, the same basic tips can be carried over to a baseball card show or any other fan conference.
