Adventure Time is back in comic form with an all-new ongoing series coming this April 9th. Featuring art from the acclaimed cartoonist and animator Nick Winn (Silver Sprocket’s Bloody Mary), along with a brand-new backup story from LA Times Book Award finalist and Adventure Time animator Derek Ballard (Cartoon show), the Adventure Time comic book series returns with a new short entitled “BEST OF BUDS” in ADVENTURE TIME #1 – the first story arc of the first new Adventure Time monthly comic.
“The new Adventure Time comic series is going to be full of hilarity-causing jokes, heart-wrenching moments, and—as you can see in these pages!—absolutely format-breaking adventures for Finn, Jake, and the rest of our fabulous cast,” said series editor Megan Brown. “We’re so incredibly excited to showcase the wonderful talents of our truly mathematical creative team!”
