Behind a cover so bursting with characters and joy that I think it may be my single favourite piece of Adventure Time art, possibly my favourite single issue of the comic so far. Beginning in prehistory (turns out Ryan North has a gift for these...dinosaur comics?), it moves through Marceline and Bubblegum's relationship to 'present' Ooo and beyond. Guest artists including Jess Fink help keep the eras distinct, but there's one thematic thread (or rather, braid of threads) running through them al...
Ryan North, you’ve done it again.
It's no secret that I love the Adventure Time graphic novels and I am working my way through the library's catalogue. There are two stories in this volume - a shorter once about two gems with magic powers that bond Marceline and Princess Bubblegum's friendship - and a longer story about Finn and Jake finding a machine that turns them into ghosts!I adore these cute stories. I read somewhere that Adventure Time can't decide whether it's for kids or adults, and I think that's part of its charm! I a...
The inclusion of Dinosaur Comics was a nice touch.
I've never watched or been interested in Adventure Time, but I got this for the class library and decided to give it a go. It wasn't as stupid as I imagined it would be. I wouldn't seek out any other books or watch the TV show, but this book wasn't half bad. The stories were fairly silly, but in a fun way. I think the fifth graders will like it.
Definitely my favorite volume thus far. I loved the history of PB and Marceline. The stories were interesting and true to the characters and their histories.
Oh my glob, I think I understand why people love adventure time! (Yes I've never seen it and I started reading the comics on volume 6, I live life on the edge and I do what I want etc etc). This is so delightful! Also, if you dig the kind of humor in squirrel girl, you will probably also like this a lot. And, if you are me, try to hide your giggles in your scarf while reading on the subway (w little to no success, obvs).
All Adventure Time books are awesome.
Ghost fun!
Are physical bodies important? Let's put this metaphysical quandry to the test! Love when philosophy sneaks into Adventure Time.
"Dudes! My pecs are gonna be so blasted after this!" - Princess BubblegumWait, how can i describe the plot of this volume in a few words?Oh yeah, that's pretty much it. Also, side note, Ricardio is my favourite villain. First of all his name his genius, and also he's got realistic dramatic eyes. I mean, come on. Oh yeah, and then this happens.And then... other mysterious stuff...Anyway, this was a RAD episode!
Same with this book as the other one. I don't really think that I'm into adventure time anymore. I loved reading the books and watching the show when I was younger but now it's not as funny and cool to me anymore. But if anyone is still into adventure time and like it go ahead I couldn't care less.
I have fallen in love with these comics! They are full of additional back stories and side stories to get me by while I await new episodes of the show. Favorite part of this comic though? The tiny, lightly colored comments at the bottom of most pages written by the author! They are worth squinting at in a brightly lit room!
Good volume in the series. I liked the first story better than the second one with the ghosts.
Yet another amazing book, from an amazing series, written by an amazing author. This comic will entice anyone who even looks at the first speech bubble.
2 fun stories here and a big covers galleryPlus there's the lil jokey commentary under every single page (get's a bit hard to read on some pages, light-colored font on white will do that)Story one starts with black/white dinosaurs!! Then shifts to color and is actually told by a crashed meteor turned jewel and....yeah! So many utterly awesome things - amulets, Marceline & Princess Bubblegum friendship, robot house....Ghost times story is ALL of AdventureTime boiled down- disturbing realizations
Another good volume. The gang becomes ghosts. They have the day and then become human again. But the one off story in the beginning was the best part. Ryan North with a subtle reference to Dinosaur Comics had me 😂.
Cute little comic. Just like the show.
True to the show, with both solid messages and jokes. (Side note: Too long to read to a four year old at bedtime.)
Ghosts aren’t my thing. I didn’t dig this one.
