The best Adventure Time yet! It definitely deserved an Eisner. It's beautiful, and sad, and hilarious, and meta, in all the ways Adventure Time does so well. If you're introducing sometime to Adventure Time, this would be an excellent place to start.

Ice King is the saddest, and I love him. Finn and Jake are bros in the best sense. Peppermint Butler is so weird.

A must read, even for people unfamiliar with Adventure Time. Kudos to Ryan North - this is a fantastic piece of writing.

Another cute instalment in the Adventure Time graphic novel series. This time, best pals Jake the Dog and Finn the Human and... the Ice King... battle through a dungeon created when the Ice King was in a slump and feeling lonely. Will the treasure at the end be worth the crazy emotions?

These graphic novels are silly and fun and I enjoy all of them. :) Not much more to say!

Okay so I did tear up a little when I read the line, “But giving up’s EASY. You know what’s hard? To BELIEVE in your own worth, to KNOW you’ve got something special in you even if nobody else can see it. Even when YOU can’t.”

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.
