I have a 10 year old on my shopping list who wants Cap or Thor comics. Any recommendations?
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

You can't go wrong with the Walt Simonson run on Thor.

My oldest nephew, who is 7, is reading above grade-level and is loving graphic novels. Any recommendations for 8-10-year-old kids, a bit off the beaten path so his mother won't have gotten them already?

Goddamn, that is a hell of a year for a 24-year-old.
It would be a hell of a year for a 34-year-old. I had a similar sort of year though so I get the TOO MUCH SUCCESS TOO FAST I'M GONNA FUCK IT UP thing she has going on.
