Tore’s first memory of comics are the Donald Ducks that he would get on his family trips to Norway back in the 70s. They were in Norwegian, but that in itself wasn’t a big problem. It was just fun to look at the pictures and read what he could. Some of those comics are still on the shelf and get read occasionally when a break from Super Heroes and the latest crisis is needed. High School, college, a career in the IT field and family put comics on the back burner until 2005 when needing an escape from the grief of a personal loss, comics re-entered his life in the form of Batman: Hush. This story rekindled his interest in Comics. Soon a pull list exceeding 25 monthly titles was presented to the local Comic shop, statues and action figures started to line the shelves and Comic-Con was on the yearly holiday schedule. Being an iPad owner, digital comics have become a staple on his device and he’s looking forward to seeing more comics and publishers make their books available this way. However, being a father he wanted to introduce his young daughter to his hobby but too many comics were too violent or had story lines way too advanced for a 5 year old girl. So began the search for comics that were right for kids. And so was born Is It Right For Kids, a website with reviews of popular entertainment for parents with kids. That includes TV and Movies as well as comics. Have a daughter makes it easier to review things. It’s not many a parents that can claim his 5 year old loves to watch Darkwing Duck and can name the 7 founding members of the JLA.
