As a book of purely illustrations and drawings, it is magnificent.

[Allie · Rating 4 out of 5]

The cover galleries are some of the best parts of the comic books, and this collects all covers so far. My favorite covers are the ones that aren't in the style of the animated series/comic, but adapted in the style of the artist. I love seeing characters I love in different contexts. Definitely a fun book for fans of the comics.

Some favorite comics artists/illustrators (click to see their cover):
-Eleanor Davis
-Emily Carroll
-Lilli Carré
-James Kochalka
-Kevin Wada
-Jeffrey Brown
-Scott C.

And also there are some funny covers like J.J. Harrison's Totoro and ET inspired covers.

A totally mathematical collection of Adventure Time cover art. If you are a fan of Adventure Time, or just comic art in general then seek this out for a viewing. Some of my personal favorites from this volume are:

Jeffrey Brown's issue one cover featuring anthropomorphic dice
Phil McAndrew's issue eight cover
Jon Vermilyea's amazingly trippy rendition of The Lich for issue nine

There isn't much to read, but the art in the book is pretty fantastic. I am not sure if the art is all created by the same person, but it's definitely has some good variety in the depiction of the characters. A good book if you like the television series.

Really lovely and wonderful collection of the comic book covers and their exclusive and alternate ones. I didn't even see one I did not like and it didn't take me long to preorder the next Eye Candy volume after staring at this one. Love it!

Seriously, some of the best covers in comics.

[Chris · Rating 4 out of 5]

Not a whole lot to say about this book, other than if you love Adventure Time, then you will enjoy all the art in this book. Nuff Said.
