This book is about two best friends named Finn and Jake and their adventures. This book is a bunch of little stories but the main story in this book is when the evil skeleton gets broken out of his prison. When he gets out he make a goal of destroying everything. While he is destroying everything...
I absolutely loved this book. It's a collection of short stories revolving around the idea of a "Death Machine": a machine that spits out a slip of paper telling you how you're going to die. The word or phrase could be obvious; for instance, "car crash", or it could be a bit more obscure, such as...
Humorous collection of stored based around a what if scenario....What if there was a machine that told you how you were going to die? How would this change society and how would it change the way you live your life.It was a great read and very easy to pick up, read one of the stories and put back...
What if you knew how you were going to die? Not when, but how. And what if the machine that told you was vague and even seemed to have a sense of irony? After Ryan North did a Dinosaur Comics strip mentioning this very idea, people wanted to write stories based on it.Anthologies are hard to rate ...
I've heard great things about Adventure Time but never seen it, so I thought reading the comics would be a good introduction. Well, I was wrong - I didn't get the appeal. I couldn't hear voices in my head, I didn't know who the characters were or what their larger relationships were (although som...
Jeg kan virkelig godt lide Adventure Time tegnefilmen, og var derfor også overbevist om, at jeg ville kunne lide denne. Hvilket jeg tildels også kunne.Jeg kunne ret godt lide historien, og humoren der var i den. Men samtidig synes jeg ikke rigtig, der skete så meget, og jeg kedede mig desværre de...
I bought this for Chris for Valentine's Day but I'm pretty sure he still hasn't read it. He SHOULD because it is AWESOME. It is exactly like watching the teevee show. Ryan North is a genius. So are the artists; I can tell exactly what crazy shapes Jake is making, how people are saying stuff, etc....
I had never heard of this show or comics/ graphic novels until Cat from The Little Book Owl mentioned them on her youtube channel. I figured that if she liked it so would I. The perfect opportunity came when I saw these volumes at Comic Con and grabbed them for myself. I really liked this edition...
Very, very clever. I saw this on Kickstarter a while back and was intrigued, so I snatched it right away when I saw it sitting on my library's new books display.First off, props to Ryan North for getting me to go back and actually read Shakespeare. I started this book and quickly realized I wou...
After finishing the first volume I couldn't wait to get stuck into this one and was overjoyed to find that this volume was bigger (collecting 5 comics as opposed to 4 in v.1)and better! First off, an single issue story in which Finn and Jake meet the very odd Adventure Tim in a strange distant, b...
Volume 2 of the Adventure Timr comics were slightly less enjoyable than the first. If only because it mostly centred around time travelling and robots from the future, which seemed kind of... infantile and obvious. Maybe it sounds pretentious and optimistic, but usually Adventure Time mixes in th...
Straight from Issue 5, Ryan North continues to fail to capture the voice and dialogue of the characters with Jake using "reciprocate" in normal conversation. It's jarringly bad in this volume compared to the previous. Although I haven't checked, I'm sure this is worse than Adventure Time fanficti...
So it's official that Princess Bubblegum is the best. In this volume anyway, where the other princesses were sadly not featured. But, Bubblegum is awesome in that a) she always knows what's going on even when encountered by Jake & Finn sent from the past and b) when evil robots attack time-trav...
Another awesome volume that is on the same spirit as the best cartoon on TV at the moment. The first issue/chapter is a mind-bending "Choose Your Own Adventure Time" which will no doubt have older readers like me nostalgic. The main story is great too as it features my favourite character, and th...
