This was a pretty fun comic, though I was bored at times. Too much dialogue and text, I just wanted to get to the action. I might write a longer review later.

Well. If you dislike clowns...guess you're never getting into the Bravest Warriors comics. Cause this opening does not spare you. The Bravest Warriors are sent to a planet of sad clowns, to battle against Sadness. Sadness...the witch. Not, like, the embodiment of sadness, or the cause of sadness (except as much as she can, being an evil witch). Just a powerful witch. And, well, things get weirder than that. Bravest Warriors takes the random events of Adventure Time and just sets them in a sci-fi universe. It's all a little unsettling, and a whole lot funny.

Make sure to watch at least the first season of the YouTube series, first. Perhaps the second, as well, though the second does little for the plot here. You mainly just need to get to know the characters, so you can accept that, yes, things are that weird in the main release. I mean...this IS the series with a hologram projector in their bathroom to entertain you while you poo. The comics live up to that weirdness.

Catbug continues to be a delight.

There's no emotionally meaningful plot and the characters aren't deep: they're delivery mechanisms for assorted jokes. And that's fine! It's a comedy! But the comedy style didn't vibe with me. Some of the intended comedy is the friends just being cruel to each other, and I don't like that. The art is nice, and the character designs are good. That's about all I can say positive about it.
