Adventure Time: Ice King

In Adventure Time: Ice King (2016–present, Boom! Studios), this six-issue miniseries plucks the Crown-wearing, princess-kidnapping Ice King from the Land of Ooo for his own spotlight. Writers Emily Partridge and Pranas Naujokaitis, alongside artists Natalie Andrewson and Shelli Lamb, delve into the lonely ruler's surprisingly rich inner world, exploring his bizarrely heartfelt relationships and offbeat daily life. A warm, quirky addition to the Adventure Time comic line, it matters for giving one of the show's most tragicomic figures a chance to shine beyond the usual Finn-and-Jake adventures.
