Number four in this colourful series! Another fun, exciting adventure with our favourite characters. It includes issues 15 to 19 of the comic.
The first adventure Finn and Jake embark on is the retrieval of their voices after a princess tea party is crashed by the mischievous Magic Man. The princesses all get together, including Bubblegum and LSP (of course), to assist Finn and Jake.
After that, the boys find themselves in the Ice King's hidden (and forgotten) dungeon. They want the treasure at the other end, but that requires defeating several monstrous bosses first...
The adventures are, as always, great fun. The graphics are awesome and the dialogue is hilarious. This volume teaches us a lot about the Ice King's past, too, and is actually quite emotionally deep at times.
I really enjoyed this! A light-hearted, funny read (although it had it's more emotional moments). I found myself actually sympathising with the Ice King, and really wanting to know more about his past. And I loved the cover gallery, as always! There are some amazing pieces in here!
Easily 4 stars for this volume, at least.

If you don't read carefully, you'll miss the bonus text at the bottom of the page. Anyway, I love Jake and Finn. FRIENDSHIP!

That amazing Adventure Time combination of zany sillyness and genuinely heartfelt sorrow.

I love Adventure Time. It is hilarious and quirky and just strange enough. But this was beyond awesome. Not only were the stories fun and well paced, the second story about the Ice King actually made me feel things. Deep things about emotions or whatever. The story dealt with themes of aging, memory, vulnerability, depression, and self-worth. And let me remind you, this is Adventure Time we are talking about. Don't believe me? Read this "Sometimes I do think I should give up--just let the crown freeze, with me in it. Some days I can't remember a single reason to keep fighting...But giving up is easy. You know what's hard? To believe in you own worth, to know you've got something special in you even if nobody else can see it. Even when YOU can't."
Holy crap.
Holy crap.

The AT comics continue to entertain. The story arc for this volume follows the Ice King, Finn, and Jake through Ice King’s secret dungeons. Ice King has forgotten creating them, but they go in anyways to seek out legendary treasure, as well as dangerous beasts and memories the Ice King has long forgotten. It’s a little sad, but also full of goofy humor, puns, and hidden snails as always. It was one of the best volumes thus far.
