Ryan North is by far the most perfect writer you could imagine for this world, and he manages to capture the voices of each character (even minor ones) deftly, making this feel like an easy continuation of the show. More importantly the story is one that takes advantage of the format and is something that wouldn't work as well in Adventure Time's usual episode structure (additionally there are gags that work only as written). Funny, quirky, sincere, and cute, I am always ready for more Adventure Time.

Love adventure time, but the story was ok. Ive read better in this series. Enjoyed seeing Princess Bubblegum and Marceline having adventures but honestly it kinds bugs em that they are trying to force "are they or aren't they" relationship. They are friends! Nothing more!

Best collection so far. Baby gum vs Lemongrab is acceptable.

This was another great installment of the Adventure Time comic. In this volume one of Princess Bubblegum's experiments gone wrong wreaks havoc on the candy kingdom and most of Ooo. The best part is that we get to see Marceline and Princess Bubblegum team up to save everyone. It was very entertaining. :)

I'm always amazed by how accurately the comic captures the tone, spirit and utter joy of the cartoon. You always expect it to feel like the B-team or an homage to the original product but it's actually spot on. Plenty of panels made me laugh out loud and forced me to show them to other people. This volume is primarily focused on PB, Marceline and Lemongrab which is fine by me, and all the characters show the fluidity, humanity and craziness you'd expect from the show. It's smart, fun and just a genuinely good time to read, plus it has an amazing cover gallery at the back that I could get lost in for hours.

I'm not sure what specifically keeps me coming back to Adventure Time. The weirdness and creativity are surely important, but it might just be the colors.
In Volume Five, Princess Bubblegum and Marceline need to save the Candy Kingdom from the bubblegum that has overtaken the brains of its people. The semi-sentient bubblegum was PB's fault to begin with of course, in all of her mad scientists-ness. PB finally discover the acidic solution to their problems as they employ the help of the um...delightful Lemongrab.
These Adventure Time stories continue to use Finn & Jake as starting points for adventures, but are delightfully exploring other characters. I am specifically enjoying the backstory and development of Bubblegum's and Marceline's friendships.
Five stars for another fast-paced, quirky Adventure!
