Comics and graphic novels have been a favorite since their inception. Comics have a way of drawing boys into reading even if they “don’t like it.” Outside of Marvel and DC Comics, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of alternatives for comics, but we’ve found a great one.
Ark Haven Comics is the leading publisher of independent comics. According to their website, “Arkhaven will publish comic books and develop games and produce movies that represent creative people bringing original projects to life, and that connect people around creative projects and the creative process.” On their website, you’ll find fiction and non-fiction books, audiobooks, and of course, comics. The illustrations are bright and attractive and definitely comparable to mainstream comic books. Check them out and let us know what you think!
