New All Age Comic books for Wednesday, October 21, 2015

It’s #NCBD and this week has one of our favorite all age comic books, one that should be your favorite, a couple trade paperbacks worth looking at and one book whose art and story are some of the best in the business.

Simpsons Comics comes out this week, it’s issue #224, only $2.99 and one of the most consistent all age comics-that also entertains adults, that you’ll read. Lumberjanes #19 is the comic that your young reader has been waiting for. Its art is timeless, story is relatable for children and it still provides lots of laughs for older readers.

New All Age Comic books for Wednesday, October 21, 2015

Teen Titans Go! #12, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Amazing Adventures #3, Princeless Raven Pirate Princess #4, Giant Days #7 and many more are released also.

Possibly the most unique title out there is Usagi Yojimbo. There is nothing like this on the market in its delivery, presentation or overall package.  It’s a black and white title that’s drawn more like an old school cartoon strip with an anthropomorphic ninja rabbit. This is an all ages title that’s smart, highly creative and fun to read. The fact that it’s not in color might put off some young readers, but it shouldn’t. The content in this book is on a very high caliber, much higher than the average comic and just slightly left of center. Issue #149 of Usagi Yojimbo comes out this week and is worth taking a look at if you’re looking for a breath of fresh air in your reading habits.

To find your closest comic book store just dig the link.  The picture links with the comics will take you to TFAW, where you’ll save up to 20% on comic orders.

 



 

Transformers: Robots In Disguise is high quality animation for 7+

In the Transformer’s timeline it is years since the happenings of Transformers: Prime. Cybertron is seemingly going well and we see Bumblebee who is a beat cop with Strongarm. On patrol Bumblebee engages in a chase with Sideswipe and receives a message from Optimus Prime (who was supposedly no longer alive) telling him to go to Earth. It’s on Earth that the series takes place, but it’s important to set it up that way so old school viewers can put the pieces together in this semi-all ages cartoon.

Calls for the National Geographic Bee are open to schools

When I was in 7th grade one of the smartest people in our class was Doug. One of his party tricks, for lack of a better term was his in-depth knowledge of world countries and their capitals. During one slow class I remember him talking about Togo and its capital, Lome. Everyone in the class had never even heard of Togo and here he was schooling us on things about this relatively small African country. The questions that I’ve seen in the National Geographic Bee aren’t all that difficult; but it’s something that Doug would’ve certainly been our school champion at.

These are the three items at Best Buy that you need to save money #ad

We were compensated for this post. All thoughts are our own and we really do like faster downloads, streaming TV, saving money and watching live TV. My wife and I are a great team and we each know our role. She’s the type that is less likely to start something while I’m the one that is less likely to complete a project. Know your role. Knowing that about us, I just completed three tasks from start to finish that will save the family money, entertain us more, frustrate us less and it all took less than one hour to accomplish. We installed a Nest Learning Thermostat, Netgear Nighthawk DST Router with DST Adapter and Sling TV; all from Best Buy, with each one doing amazing things.

The Magic School Bus Season Four drives on with manic, educational abandon

When Then Magic School Bus was originally on the air I was already out of college. In hindsight the mid 90s was a fabulous time for children’s programming. Even then I was a fan of Pee-Wee’s Playhouse, as well as, Wallace and Gromit. Both of these series I still like watching, plus it’s something that our children can watch and enjoy too. The final season of The Magic School Bus is out on DVD in a two disc collection that puts a bow on a series that was as entertaining as it was educational.

Best Buy is the hot spot for the undead this Halloween pranking #ad

Technology, meet Halloween, Halloween this is technology; now let’s have this conversation in our house. Of course, Best Buy has a seat here too.  Star Wars, or at least a licensed toy from the latest movie are also talking at the table-and it’s all done in the name of good natured fun, simple to accomplish Halloween pranks that you can do around the house.

The New Yoda Chronicles lovingly pokes the Force from all sides

Star Wars is such a massive cultural juggernaut that a little gentle poking and being made fun of is necessary. Don’t get me wrong, I do love Star Wars, but I also enjoy other fun things. For instance, LEGO makes fabulous shows (and films) that skew pop culture in a family friendly way that respects the source material while creating something that is entirely unique.  Star Wars The New Yoda Chronicles is out on DVD and brings all of the wit, charm and action that you expect from their brick-animated creations.
