I know it's been a while but I've been busy. Here's some reviews for some comics my dad and I read this weekend.
Donald Duck #351
Donald is still a spy and that's cool. They're still looking for the stolen spy computer. I liked that Donald talked to Daisy and she's not mad at him anymore. I liked all the colors on the cover and art is good inside.
I didn't like that they used the word "idiot" or when they Oh well.
This was a fun comic. I'd say it's a 5 out of 5. Even though Donald gets mad a lot, I like him as a secret spy.
Words I Learned: wiretapping, rendezvous, rogue (not the X-Man), encrypted, GPS, algorithm
The Marvelous Land Of Oz #4
We had to catch up and read a two Oz comics. I really liked that the Scarecrow and Tinman got to meet up again. The pictures and colors are really pretty. When they were all in a field of sunflowers, it reminded me a little of the poppies. There was a new character, a woggle-bug who looks cool.
I don't like that Jack Pumpkinhead keeps getting hurt and that he lost a leg here. Then there's Mombi. I wish she stayed away. I don't like her because she's kind of being mean.
My rating for this is 4.5 out of 5. I can't wait for the next issue. The preview page at the end shows the mouse king is coming back.
Words I Learned: orthodox, comrade, vanity, aggregation, hearth, pinnacle, congenial, amputated, entreat.
Batman: The Brave And The Bold #14
This comic book is almost like the cartoon. It even starts the same with a tiny bit with Batman and Plastic Man. The main part is Batman and Huntress. She was cool on the cartoon. I think she really likes Batman.
The bad guy was Mr. Camera. He seemed like a silly bad guy. The only thing I didn't like was the comic felt too short. I wanted it to be longer but I guess comic books can't go on forever.
I would give this a 4.5 out of 5. I hope we see Huntress again in this comic and the cartoon.
Words I Learned: killjoy, emoticons, nuisance, catatonic.
Tiny Titans #25
I like this comic book. The art is cool even though they look different from the other comics. Everyone looks like kids. But that's funny. Krypto looks really cute as a puppy. We get to see a lot of colored Green Lantern rings. I said I wanted the green one because green is my favorite color. Dad told me what the colors are for and maybe I'd want the Love one too. We get to see other Green Lanterns. Ch'p was also really cute.
When Superboy came, another character called Match was there. It was weird since he's supposed be bad like Bizarro. I didn't like that he ate one of the Titans' chairs. I also didn't like that all the Tiny Titans got their rings taken away.
This gets a 4 out of 5.
Words I Learned: epilogue
Muppet King Arthur #1
We only read the first issue. Dad left the second one at his office. I really like the Muppets and I read a Magic Treehouse book that had King Arthur and Merlin in it. I also really liked the Muppet Peter Pan comic. This one seems different.
I like that Miss Piggy was Morgan Le Fey. It's funny that she had so many magic mirrors in her room. It was also a good idea that Fozzie was a court jester.
Dad said a lot of the jokes were "over my head." It didn't seem as funny as the other Muppet comics. Like Dad said there were jokes about different bands, I kind of got one about the Beatles. I didn't really know some of the others. I like the art but I think I like the art in Muppet Peter Pan better. The cover was really pretty.
I give this comic a 3.5 out of 5. Hopefully dad will bring in the next issue so we can read it.
