Adventure Time, the cult hit that has won Cartoon Network six Emmys, and acted as a home on television for a number of comics luminaries, will be coming to an end with its ninth season in 2018.
"I haven’t even tried to watch Game of Thrones because I have heard that they keep killing people off, and I can’t stand that! Which I imagine sounds kinda awful, considering how quick with the knife I was in Wandering Star. I mean, look what I did to the Earth! But it had to happen. Wars don’t come without loss."
In an age of such widespread comic book popularity and prevalence, it's a great time to begin reading comics. Working in comics retail, I would often get asked for good suggestions to introduce new readers into the world of sequential storytelling. So in this series I'll be recommending some of the books that myself, my colleagues, and our customers have loved. Each week I'll focus on ten books -- five All Ages and five Teen+ -- from Big Two comics to smaller independent titles, classic runs to contemporary cult hits.
