4. Takio

And here’s a comic by a team you don’t often see doing things for kids.

Or specifically, things without the word f**k in them. Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming are the team behind Powers, a great comic you should definitely not let your kids read. But they collaborated on Takio, a book about two sisters with super powers who fight crime.

The dialogue crackles like you’d expect from a Bendis book and years of Powers have shaped Oeming’s drawing style into something streamlines and complex. The series took the form of a graphic novel and a follow up miniseries, of which I’ve only read the mini. But it’s good enough for me to rec the whole series as a result. And then when you’re kid gets a little older, they’ll have a writer and artist they like and can follow.

Maybe they’ll like Torso. (This is a joke, do not give any child Torso)
