Adventure Time Compendium Vol. 1
C’mon, grab your friends and head to distant lands in this first-of-its-kind complete collection of award-winning writer Ryan North’s run on the beloved Adventure Time comics!
It’s the mathematical and radical adventures of Finn and Jake as they team up with some of Ooo’s most memorable residents to do what they do best—PUNCH THINGS! Er, we mean ADVENTURE! With Princess Bubblegum, Marceline the Vampire Queen, Ice King, Lumpy Space Princess, BMO, and more along for the ride, what could possibly go wrong?!
First, this motley crew has to defeat the Lich before the unthinkable happens, and the whole of Ooo is flung straight into the sun! And then it’s a race to see who can walk in a straight line the longest to become the rightful owner of BMO’s famous “cup cake”! And Princess Bubblegum inventing time travel is a good thing, right? It totally won’t lead to the flipping ROBOT APOCALYPSE, right?? And then—hey, wait a minute . . . why’re we spoiling all the good stuff?!
Discover all these tales and more in the first definitive Adventure Time compendium, collecting the landmark run (issues #1–35) from multiple Eisner Award winner Ryan North (Unbeatable Squirrel Girl) with contributions from acclaimed artists Shelli Paroline & Braden Lamb (Midas), Mike Holmes (Wings of Fire), and Jim Rugg (Street Angel), and many more!

I'm the author of the webcomic Dinosaur Comics (that's the comic where the pictures don't change but the words do, it's better than it sounds and I've also done crazy things like turn Shakespeare into a choose-your-own-path adventure, write a comic for Marvel about a girl with all the powers of a squirrel, or mess up walking my dog so badly it made the news.
I'm working on more stuff as we speak, hopefully it's good

So glad they've finally collected the first 35 issues together for easy access (and with more to come in the next volume). Adventure Time is the show my son and I bond over, so we read all of these together over the course of a month (an issue a night) and it was like watching new episodes of the show. Great stories with fun arcs across 3-4 volumes each. We'll be reading the Fiona and Cake compendium next while we wait for AT vol 2 to release in March.

Where to begin? I loved it.
The quality of the Compendium itself is fantastic. It’s sturdy and the artwork and printing is phenomenal. Don’t even get me started on the cover art for issue 33! I’m going to look for the standalone comic on eBay so I can frame it. This book contains the first 35 Adventure Time comics and the remaining will be out in the Compendium volume 2 later this year.
The comics are fun. We see characters that weren’t in the tv show and we get to spend more time with our favorite characters, like Marceline and Bubblegum! I’m looking forward to the second volume!

This has a bunch of fun stuff like a graphical choose your own adventure, and the characters feel true to the TV show.
