Adventure Time #6

Finn the Human charges sword-raised across a giant mushroom while Jake the Dog squares up beside him, the two heroes completely surrounded by a teeming horde of grotesque monsters, skulls, and shadowy creatures stretching to a fiery volcanic horizon — it's an impressively busy cover by Chris Houghton that captures the chaotic spirit of the Land of Ooo perfectly. KaBOOM!'s 2012 run of Adventure Time was a genuine treat for fans of the cartoon, pairing the show's irreverent energy with the tactile pleasure of a comic in your hands. With writer Ryan North and artists Shelli Paroline and Braden Lamb on the interior story "Time Machine," issue #6 promises the kind of gleefully weird storytelling that made this series a standout of its era.
