Summary

A new series of colorful, imaginative, magical adventures with Wallace The Brave, recently awarded the Reuben Award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip by the National Cartoonist Society。

Disclaimer: I received this book for free in exchange of my honest opinion。This was so incredibly fun! Sometimes I was laughing out loud - loved to follow the kids adventures, loved the parents too。 So relatable!

Robert Gidley

Best comic running today“Wallace The Brave” is like someone took the best parts of “Calvin and Hobbes,” mashed it together with “Cul de Sac” and seasoned it with a soupçon of weird。 Very funny, very endearing。 Go Spud!

Geoff

What a fun, classic newspaper comic。 It's a mashup of Peanuts, Calvin and Hobbes, Nate the Great, and Gasoline Alley, taking the best arts of the fun and whimsy and craziness and heart from each of its sources。 The main trio of kids is well developed and endearing and (rare for a newspaper comic) the adults are compelling and three dimensional and funny as well。 I'm looking forward to reading this one with my kids。**Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for providing a free copy in exch What a fun, classic newspaper comic。 It's a mashup of Peanuts, Calvin and Hobbes, Nate the Great, and Gasoline Alley, taking the best arts of the fun and whimsy and craziness and heart from each of its sources。 The main trio of kids is well developed and endearing and (rare for a newspaper comic) the adults are compelling and three dimensional and funny as well。 I'm looking forward to reading this one with my kids。**Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Einfach großartigst。 Jeder Band ist immer wieder eine Freude zu lesen: Die Zeichnungen im ganz individuellen Stil, die toll entwickelten Charaktere und all die wunderbaren Gags, die einfach sitzen。

Kevin Hodgson

The world of Wallace and his family and friends is perfectly suited this lovely, funny and rather touching comic about childhood antics and friendship, and the imaginative exploration of the world outside the door (even if your friend needs a bit of cajoling to come along)

Reading these comics reminds me of what it was like to be a kid, and how we don't have to lose that childlike wonder and imagination。 Wallace the Brave inspires me to look for the adventures in life that are around us everyday。 Reading these comics reminds me of what it was like to be a kid, and how we don't have to lose that childlike wonder and imagination。 Wallace the Brave inspires me to look for the adventures in life that are around us everyday。 。。。more

I loved the comedies of the two young men, Wallace and his partner, with their father。 It seems like those adventures that young people have to enjoy their childhood as they want it。 I don't know whether to put four stars or five I loved the comedies of the two young men, Wallace and his partner, with their father。 It seems like those adventures that young people have to enjoy their childhood as they want it。 I don't know whether to put four stars or five 。。。more

A collection of a comic year of adventures with Wallace, his family, his best buds Spud and Amelia。I absolutely love how Wallace’s mom and dad respond to his and his little brother’s misadventures。 Wallace’s teacher is also pretty great。 The things Will Henry dreams up for Wallace, Spud, and Amelia to get up to are endlessly creative and had me laughing all the way through。 Highly recommended to any age reader looking for a laugh。No content issues。I received an ARC of this title from the publish A collection of a comic year of adventures with Wallace, his family, his best buds Spud and Amelia。I absolutely love how Wallace’s mom and dad respond to his and his little brother’s misadventures。 Wallace’s teacher is also pretty great。 The things Will Henry dreams up for Wallace, Spud, and Amelia to get up to are endlessly creative and had me laughing all the way through。 Highly recommended to any age reader looking for a laugh。No content issues。I received an ARC of this title from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

I adore Will Henry’s work! No matter your age, do yourself a favor and pick up the Wallace the Brave collections。 They’re full of adventure, friendship, silliness and imagination!

I read Wallace the Brave everyday in my local newspaper and on some social media sites, so this book already has a special place in my heart。 Each page is a laugh and the artwork in so charming! That you to Will Henry and Net Galley for the read

Hmm, I guess my mistake was not having any background with the series before picking up Wicked Epic Adventures。 I had no expectations, but once I got a few pages in, I felt like I was reading a Calvin and Hobbes styled comic, hoping to provide a lighthearted peek into childhood in middle class America。Problem is, I couldn't relate, and I wasn't finding any of the panels giggle-worthy or even insightful。 I desperately wanted to connect with Wallace and Spud, but it never happened。 They can't all Hmm, I guess my mistake was not having any background with the series before picking up Wicked Epic Adventures。 I had no expectations, but once I got a few pages in, I felt like I was reading a Calvin and Hobbes styled comic, hoping to provide a lighthearted peek into childhood in middle class America。Problem is, I couldn't relate, and I wasn't finding any of the panels giggle-worthy or even insightful。 I desperately wanted to connect with Wallace and Spud, but it never happened。 They can't all be winners for every reader, so we'll just move right along。 。。。more

That you to Will Henry and Net Galley for giving me an ARC to read in exchange for an honest review。This book is hilarious。 Very reminiscent of Calvin & Hobbes whom I miss very much。 I teach creative writing and this book is perfect to teach how to use the imagination。 The unexpectedness of children's thinking is so much fun!

Wallace the Brave is quickly becoming one of my favorite comic strips。 The strip features the adventures of a boy growing up in a seaside town whose life revolves around school, his family, friends, and his expansive imagination。 Though more of a make-you-smile than a laugh-out-loud strip, I consider Wallace to have successfully joined the ranks of Calvin and Hobbes, Foxtrot, and Cul de Sac as one of the best comics depicting an American childhood。Take a gander for free at gocomics。com, and if y Wallace the Brave is quickly becoming one of my favorite comic strips。 The strip features the adventures of a boy growing up in a seaside town whose life revolves around school, his family, friends, and his expansive imagination。 Though more of a make-you-smile than a laugh-out-loud strip, I consider Wallace to have successfully joined the ranks of Calvin and Hobbes, Foxtrot, and Cul de Sac as one of the best comics depicting an American childhood。Take a gander for free at gocomics。com, and if you like what you see start collecting these books - PRONTO!This title will be available March 23rd。 Thanks to NetGalley, and the publisher for this delightful sneak peek。 。。。more

A nice little collection of cartoons, a bit Calvin & Hobbes-like, but still different enough。 As with any cartoon, it'll have to be the art that sells it, and the art here is very good。Can't say every gag made me laugh, but most made me smile, and a couple are quite exquisite。3。5 stars(Picked up an ARC through NetGalley) A nice little collection of cartoons, a bit Calvin & Hobbes-like, but still different enough。 As with any cartoon, it'll have to be the art that sells it, and the art here is very good。Can't say every gag made me laugh, but most made me smile, and a couple are quite exquisite。3。5 stars(Picked up an ARC through NetGalley) 。。。more

This graphic novel is for anyone who wants to start out finding what everyone loves about them。 This is the life of Wallace。 What he goes and does with himself and friends throughout the day。 You feel like you are right there with him。 The illustrations are wonderful and make you feel like you are right there in his daily life。 I would recommend this to anyone starting out with graphic novels or just wants to see how a boy lives throughout his day。

I have read and reviewed two other books by this author and this collection felt as good, if not better than the others。Wallace and his friends lead simple lives with some lofty ideas at times。 They live in a small town, with limited people who make appearances ( seagulls, and one in particular also participate)。 Since the previous collection, his parents have become less tired and both of Wallace’s parents show more of their daily life this time around。 I still enjoyed Spud’s paranoia and rando I have read and reviewed two other books by this author and this collection felt as good, if not better than the others。Wallace and his friends lead simple lives with some lofty ideas at times。 They live in a small town, with limited people who make appearances ( seagulls, and one in particular also participate)。 Since the previous collection, his parents have become less tired and both of Wallace’s parents show more of their daily life this time around。 I still enjoyed Spud’s paranoia and random musings of Wallace’s as well as Sterling’s intrusions into the narrative。 The pattern is similar to the last two visits but it still felt new and fresh。 Theirs is a simple life and once I started I kept going, chuckling to myself till I set it down after having turned the last page (metaphorically, I had a digi-copy)I received an ARC thanks to NetGalley and my review is entirely based on my reading experience with this and the previous two collections by the same author。 。。。more

Shelley

As someone with a very。。。Wallace like child, I enjoyed this book。 I could see her doing most of the things (she also has a very vivid imagination) that happen in this book。 A nice collection of strips from Snug Harbor that take place throughout most of the year。 They play in the ocean, hide in the woods, go to school, and just do what a lot of normal kids do。 I really enjoyed it!*I received a copy of Wicked Epic Adventures through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。

This books was absolutely fantastic。 I've been seeing the author's comics on Instagram so I didn't hesitate to read the book。I love the art style, it's not your typical "clean" art, which makes it so much more interesting。I snort-laughed with every other comic in this collection and I found myself relating to the characters more than once。The friendship between Wallace and Spud is great, Wallace pushes Spud to to do things out of his comfort zone but never pushes too far。 Spud on the other hand This books was absolutely fantastic。 I've been seeing the author's comics on Instagram so I didn't hesitate to read the book。I love the art style, it's not your typical "clean" art, which makes it so much more interesting。I snort-laughed with every other comic in this collection and I found myself relating to the characters more than once。The friendship between Wallace and Spud is great, Wallace pushes Spud to to do things out of his comfort zone but never pushes too far。 Spud on the other hand stops Wallace from going through with the VERY stupid ideas。 He unfortunately can't stop him from going through with regular stupid ideas。This is definitely a collection one can go back to whenever one needs a pick-me-up。 。。。more

Okay, this was seriously hilarious。 Like, I'm not sure I even knew what the plot was half the time other than the kids being silly and random and pranking each other or just causing general mayhem, but the one-liners were so funny that I was giggling every other page。 It's very situational, with the kids doing something ill-advised every couple of pages。 It's a great set of comics if you're looking for a good laugh!➵ thank you netgalley for the free arc in exchange for an honest review ♡ Okay, this was seriously hilarious。 Like, I'm not sure I even knew what the plot was half the time other than the kids being silly and random and pranking each other or just causing general mayhem, but the one-liners were so funny that I was giggling every other page。 It's very situational, with the kids doing something ill-advised every couple of pages。 It's a great set of comics if you're looking for a good laugh!➵ thank you netgalley for the free arc in exchange for an honest review ♡ 。。。more

Comic work is always hard to judge because not everyone laughs at the same thing。 I'm sad to say this wasn't for me。 The punch line of those comic strips was just a little lacking for my taste。 I picked it up with a lot of expectation because it was described as the heir of Calvin & Hobbes, I am an unconditional fan of that masterpiece, so I knew it was a tall order。 But I expected to find maybe a brother to Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson, which is fantastic and also has a good place on my shelv Comic work is always hard to judge because not everyone laughs at the same thing。 I'm sad to say this wasn't for me。 The punch line of those comic strips was just a little lacking for my taste。 I picked it up with a lot of expectation because it was described as the heir of Calvin & Hobbes, I am an unconditional fan of that masterpiece, so I knew it was a tall order。 But I expected to find maybe a brother to Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson, which is fantastic and also has a good place on my shelves。。。 sadly it only just managed to make me smile 3 times。 The characters just didn't talk to me that much and were pretty one dimensional with each only one obsession in mind。 I guess even in comic strips I like my characters a little more fluffed out。 I think this might talk to other parents or people with different childhood memories from mine。 One the plus side it is very clean and suitable for all ages。 I can totally imagine giving it to my grandfather as a Christmas gift and am pretty sure he would like it。 。。。more
