Toronto!

In case you missed it, she actually meant "pronto".  We still haven't found the book though.

Atomic Robo vs Power Mariah and Jack Hammer...A Battle Royale!

                                 Click on image to enlarge.

I LOVE Atomic Robo!  It is my favourite comic around right now.  There are lots of explosions, jokes and monsters for Robo to punch, and the strongest language is the "the H word".  I think it is ok for 11 and up.


I had him sort of clenching his fost, but it made him look too angry.  I am going for an annoyed/exasperated look.  I hope it comes across that way.

Disney: The Best!

Not a lot of Cars stuff at Disney yet, but Jack loved the life sized Mater and Lightning.  Lunch with the princesses at the Norwegian restaurant was pretty nice.

Still more Disney to come.

Disney: STICK!

It took a lot to convince him to leave that stick at Frontierland.

This immediately made me think of a story in Planet Sunday Comics by Monty S Kane.  I reviewed it a year or so ago and in it there was a universal story about kids and their desire to own every leaf, rock or stick they come across.  Every child is different, but most seem to have that urge.

More Disney to come.

Disney: Mariah vs It's a Small World...

                                                    Click image to enlarge.

Disney was a blast this March Break.  First time ever for everyone but me.  Did you know they got rid of the 20000 Leagues Under the Sea ride?  I was disappointed.  On the upside, Small World is really fun.  Mariah had us go four times.

Lots more Disney trip comics to come.
