ComicBooks For Kids launches their retailer kit at this week's ComicsPRO 2025



Article Summary

  • ComicBooks For Kids debuts a retailer kit at ComicsPRO 2025 featuring exclusive Superman #39 covers.
  • Retailer kits include posters, comics, and promotional items, tailored for brick-and-mortar shops.
  • Superman and Justice League's cancer center visit highlighted in special edition comic for children.
  • ComicBooks For Kids partners with DC, supported by mycomicshop.com and local comic retailers.

CB4K distributes comics to children in hospitals and cancer centers, and its sister organization, ComicBooks For Troops, sends comics to the military. For the third year in a row, ComicBooks For Kids (CB4K) has teamed up with DC for a special edition of Superman #39, with two new covers by Jerry Ordway and Chrissie Zullo for 2025. The comic will not be available for sale, but retailers who sponsored the ComicBooks For Kids and ComicBooks For Troops events in 2024 will get a small allocation for the 2025 ComicBooks For Kids! weekend, scheduled for the 28th of February to the 2nd of March next weekend in the US and UK.

In the comic book by Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason, Superman and the Justice League visit a children's cancer centre and take the kids on a scavenger hunt and a trip to the moon. It was originally published in 2018, and CB4K teamed up with DC for the first time in 2023 to create a special edition just for the charity. The comic is sponsored by the online retailer mycomicshop.com, the Pennsylvania comic shop Krav'n Comics and Graham Cracker Comics.
