Marvel Ultimate Spider-Man Jumbo Coloring and Activity Book 2017

I picked up this Marvel Ultimate Spider-Man Jumbo Coloring and Activity Book from 2017 at the local Dollar Tree three days ago. This is a tie-in to the cartoon series and it shows with some of the character art. The front and back cover features two different poses of your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Other superheroes include Nick Fury, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Nova and White Tiger. Villains include Wolf Spider, Hobgoblin, Venom, Rhino, Shocker and Dracula. There are also some alternate versions of Spider-Man like the Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Woman.

Marvel Avengers Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book 2017

I picked up this Marvel Avengers Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book from 2017 yesterday at the local Dollar Tree. Yes, the copyright on all the interior pages have 2016. The front and back covers both feature the same Captain America picture. The Avengers that have their individual coloring pages include Captain America, Black Widow, Iron Man, Hulk, Nick Fury, Thor, Falcon and Hawkeye. Villains include the Red Skull, Abomination, Hydra Agent, M.O.D.O.K., Loki, Attuma, Whiplash and Super-Adaptoid. The last eighteen pages are actually tied together in a story focusing on Falcon's first day as an Avenger. There are some sideway pages but very few pages of the Avengers together. Activity pages include which line, draw, match, maze, unscramble and spot.

Batman Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book 2010 Covers With 2018 Interiors

I picked up a few new superhero coloring books at the local Dollar Tree earlier. Among them was this Batman Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book. The most odd thing about it is that the copyright on the front page and back cover is for 2010 but all the other interior pages show the copyright as 2018. I can only conclude that this was a rushed reprint error. The Robin that appears in this one is Tim Drake since there is a word search puzzle with his name plus the costume pretty much indicates that it is him. The villains that appear include the Joker, Penguin, Killer Croc, Man-Bat, Two-Face, Mr. Freeze and the Riddler. The activity pages include mazes, word searches, squares, puzzles, which is different,  crack the code, draw, make a match and unscramble words.

Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book 2020

I bought the Wonder Woman Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book 2020 at the local Dollar Tree last week. I'm pretty sure it was published by Bendon to concide with the Wonder Woman 1984 movie, which has been pushed back again to Christmas 2020. The cover is a close up of the Amazon Princess:

The back cover features a bonus cut out of Wonder Woman on horseback with her magic lasso in one hand:

Games include Draw and Write Your Own Story, Create A Headline, Create A Logo, Design A Tiara, Tic Tac Toe, Design New Wonder Woman Costume, Finish The Picture and more.

Avengers Jumbo Coloring and Activity Book: Defenders of Earth

Avengers Jumbo Coloring and Activity Book: Defenders of Earth is another one that I picked up at the local Dollar Tree. It was produced by Bendon with a copyright of 2020. There are ninety-six tear and share pages. The front cover features Black Widow, Captain America and Thor.

The back cover features Iron Man, Captain Marvel and the Hulk.

The coloring pages are either full figures or upper torso and head shots. Characters include Hawkeye, War Machine, Wasp, Ant Man, Black Panther, Vision, Falcon, Loki, Red Skull, Thanos, Doctor Strange and Winter Soldier in addition to the Avengers featured on the front and back covers. Unfortunately, there are no group shots or fighting scenes. I would recommend using coloring pencils if you color them since there some small spaces.

Activity pages are mixed in with the coloring pages. They include puzzles such as how many words, find the right one, mazes, who am I, squares and tic-tac-toe.

Marvel Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book: New Allies

This Marvel Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book: New Allies was picked up at the local Dollar Tree. This was produced by Bendon in 2019 with ninety-six tear and share pages. The front and back covers feature Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Thor and Spider-Man. I did a search and Amazon has it listed as part of the Marvel Heroes Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book Set (the other one is titled "Unleashed", which I do not have nor did I see it at the local Dollar Tree).

The back cover features the same image as the front cover.

Most of the coloring pages features individual characters but there are some group pages like the one with Captain America, Hawkeye, Thor, Falcon, Iron Man, Hulk and Black Widow. Other Avengers such as Ant Man, Black Panther and War Machine have their own coloring pages too. Coloring pages with super villains such as Red Skull, Loki and Ultron also pop up.

The activity pages include drawing with the grid, connect the dots, maze, image search, finish the drawing, anagrams, shadow matching, word search and others.

Note: The last third of Marvel Jumbo Coloring & Activity Book: New Allies is devoted to Spider-Man and his enemies.

Thor Big Fun Book To Color: Ages of Thunder

It's Thor Thursday and I have something special to share today. I picked up a copy of Thor Big Fun Book To Color: Ages of Thunder last week at the local Dollar Tree. The coloring/activity book was produced by Bendon in 2013 and has ninety-six off white pages. The first fifty pages or so features "Ages of Thunder" story about Loki taking over the throne of Asgard while Odin is gone. Thor gets a little help from his friend, Balder, to battle the fire and storm giants. Odin returns and discovers Loki's trickery before exiling him and the giants. Thor then goes in search of the Warriors Three and ends up battling Fafnir. Skurge and the Enchantress shows up to battle Thor before releasing Loki. Of course, he wins in the end.




Games and activities in Thor Big Fun Book To Color: Ages of Thunder include find the differences, solve the codes, hidden images, connect the dots, mazes and more.
For a dollar, Thor Big Fun Book To Color: Ages of Thunder is not a bad buy. I like the fact that it separates the story pages from the activity pages. There are plenty of action scenes with a few full figure pages. I would choose colored pencils instead of crayons because of the small spaces to color.

Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman Jumbo Coloring Book and Activity Book

I picked up a copy of the Wonder Woman Jumbo Coloring and Activity Book at the local Dollar Tree yesterday. The back cover has a copyright of 2018 but the first page has a copyright of 2017. The pages are supposed to be easy to tear out but I won't be testing that. Activities include draw your own Wonder Woman story, create a newspaper headline, decorate your own cape, how many words can you make, Tic-Tac-Toe, design your own logo, design a new costume, which image is different and others. Of course, there is are drawings of Wonder Woman that you can color opposite of each activity.
