My foster son so enjoyed the story in comic book form supplement in this week's Mishpacha Jr. Are there any frum comic books out there?

I loved these when I was younger! Not sure how easy they are to find...

Thanks, I was familiar with the old Mendy and the Golem series -- I was looking for something currently in production.

I thought I had seen an ad for a new frum comic book several weeks ago, and in our Shul lobby this Shabbos, I finally saw a copy of Kosher Comics for Kids. Just what I was looking for! It disappeared from the lobby sometime during Mussaf, but I remembered the name, Googled it, and ordered a subscription for my foster son this morning.

There are a lot of frum comic books-visit a Judaica store, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I ended up speaking to the distributor and at my request they're going to send the comics starting with #1 so we don't miss the beginnings of serials.

Actually, I was UNpleasantly surprised when I visited a local Judaica store — they had none and had not even heard of any. Sad

The new comics -koshe comics for kids is great. Ds reads it cover to cover and asks me every week if the next one came out already. They also have shikufitzy books that are like comics in the judaica stores.

Aside from Shikufitzky (which my kids love) there are other Jewish childrens books that are also written in comic book form. If you want names of some of them, I can get it for you later.

Agent Emes on the back of Ami. Jewish Press has all those storeis in cartoon form, Olmeinu has back cover stories in cartoon form, they sell books of the back covers.
