I can't find this posted on TC (I hope) but Marvel a.k.a. Disney is putting out a Enchanted TikiRoom comic book. Being released this month at comic book stores and in stores in various Disney parks.

Here's a link:

Sorry that was a article last year. Did anybody buy these comics and where can I get one.

I have almost a full set, including variants. I'm missing the 1 in 25 and 1 in 50 covers from issue 1 but have all the other issue 1 covers and all the covers from issues 2 through 5. There's also a trade hardback that was just released with all 5 issues in it and the artwork for most (all?) the vairiant covers. You can get that through Amazon (my copy was just delivered yesterday).

If you want individual issues I'd talk to your local comic shop or online at something like Midtown Comics.

So what's it like? Any good?

The story is pretty meh but the artwork is fun. Essentially the story is the Tiki Room as Fantasy Island.

This is actually the 6th(?) Disney Kingdoms comic series based on Disney attractions. Seekers of the Weird (inspired by tthe never build Museum of the Weird), Figment (inspired by Journey Into Imagination), Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Figment 2, Haunted Mansion, and the Enchanted Tiki room. They seem to have stopped after the Tiki room but they were supposed to have some announcement at Comic-Con about the future of the series, though I never heard anything.

You can get a feel for it here...https://read.marvel.com/#/book/42898. Looks pretty cool!

Brian Kesinger is a great illustrator that has done at least one of the covers - another great disney artist is Jeremy Spears, who specializes in wood carving and does some cool little tikis

We have them. We use the single issues as wall art and have the digest sitting on the coffee table.

Thanks everyone, going to Amazon now.
