you people are wonderful. thanks for all the ideas. I will look into all of this. I always try to support his interests.

I had heard of Calvin and Hobbs before, but I didn't know what it was about. So glad I'm finding out now. I just ordered a book from the library.

I think D&D may be too scary, but it looks cool. My son is very sensitive - doesn't want to go anywhere near Harry Potter. At age 9 just got ok with Starwars Legos. This sensitivity started when he was very little. He was so scared our old house was going to get blow up after watching a little kid's Construction video that exploded an old worn out building.
