The Adventure Time Comics

I was never really a comic person. The Simpsons comics seemed too expensive, superheroes bored me, and despite being obsessed with Japan, manga never did much for me. I’m a TV person, always have been.

But the Adventure Time comics are something else. The covers especially—gorgeous, intricate, all different. Various artists from around the world contribute, and there’s this magical level of care in every single one. The kind of detail you wouldn’t expect in what’s nominally just a tie-in product.

If you haven’t seen the show, go watch it now. It’s like LSD, mushrooms, and MDMA somehow had a child together. Minus the embarrassing side effects. Mostly.
