Dumm Comics in Adventure Time #2 Incentive Cover

This is a total nerd thing, but when I looked more closely at the incentive cover for issue #2 of Adventure Time, I saw some familiar faces. The comics Frog Raccoon and Laffy comics are definitely homages to Frog Raccoon Strawberry by Kyle Carrozza and John Berry  (one of my favorite online comics, the current arc has a cow version of Mega Man) and Sorry Guys by David Gemmill from Dumm Comics. Dumm comics seem to be being mocked to by having Brain Comix, but I could just be reading into it.

It reminded me when AT had a small cameo in Frog Racoon Strawberry in the form of a Finn doll you can see above and read about here.

The Annie's Approach

Remember to keep you fingers crossed that Adventure Time wins at the Annie Awrds this Saturday.

Though not in the category of best animated kids show there up for Best Animated Special Production for the episdoe "Thank You" and Rebecca Sugar is up for Best Storyboarding in a Television Production.

Give her some shouts of encouragment on her Twitter http://twitter.com/rebeccasugar

She just did this cool post on anime I happen to watch Mawaru-Penguindrum. One of those penguins likes panties quite a bit.

Covers and Covers Adventure Time Comic



-First up you can ask Ryan North the writer of the upcoming comic anything you want via the comment system of Adventure Time Art  here

-Adventure Time #1 has sold out from Diamond Publishers, the deliver all the comics to the comic shops, so that means a reprint is underway, it also means the Adventure #1 was bought by a whole lot of comic shops.

-The covers in this post are all special editions, so you'll have to look for them as there rare ones, all of them are just spectaculkar pieces, I hope they have a cover collection come out eventually as a nice coffe table book






The one's below are for issue #3
"This time we have covers by the likes of Chris Houghton on the A cover, Elena Barbarich rocking the B, AT designer and comics extraordinaire Mike DeForge on the incentive C cover and Stephanie Bucema taking us home with Finn and Jake IN SPACE on the incentive D cover!"

Damn, I love them all. Cover C looks like a showdown between Lumpy Space and the Breakfast Kingdom and Jake looks like he's farting in space.

Ugly Finn Nooka Watch

This barf ugly wath of Finn from Nooka, the same people who made the Jake watch is out now. Hate it and want it burned.

Ghost Princess


Wow, what a spectacular episode ,"Ghost Princes" blew me away. Murder mystery, spirtuality, war, cheese explosion, beating up corpses, this is why I love this show. God, just the elements in the story are like a mini-movie. Maria Bamfrod did a great job as Ghost Princess.

A friend pointed out

Oh jeez and the background design with crystal gravestone, too beautiful

My Favs For Now

 My favorite pieces of Adventure Time floating online now. The above piece has stolen the Finn toy and alter it's size quite a bit.
 Oh, man this is from the Adventure Time art show, I want another art show already!!!!!

Illegal DVD's

Someone got sick of waiting and made their own AT DVDs, they ripped off the comic book covers

Adventure Time Comics #3 Spoilers

From the other early image reveal from Boom studios and cover #3 it looks likes Finn and Jake will be dealing with sand versions of themselves. A synopsis with spoilers has been put up on tfaw.com listing for the the comic.

"Trapped by the dreaded Lich, the guys gotta stop all of Ooo from being sucked away forever - and rescue a bunch of wayward Princesses. Luckily, no one does adventure - and looks cooler doing it - than Finn and Jake! "

Wow, Lich that early, hope it's mathe mathematical.

Boom studios still doesn't have a one year subscription for individual up, so it looks like you'll hvae to head to a comic shop to get yours still.

Issue number 1 is still set for Feb 15th release.

Adventure Time Vs Homestuck



I have no idea what Homestuck is, but I guess your suppose to mock fight them at cons if you Adventure Time cosplay.

Bravest Warriors A Series Now?

Looks like Pen Ward's other creation Bravest Warriors is about to be a series. Fredearotors been showing off production sketeches on their blog.  If you haven't seen the pilot, it's about 4 space warriors who go through space fighting evil. It still has Pen's sense of humor, but I still like AT more. The other mystery is if it's airing on Nickeledeon or not, there's no place where it says it for Cartoon Network, but I think it be too hard for Pen working on two seperate show for two different networks.
 Here's some early work on the show, it seems Phil Rynda from AT is now working on it. Also the characters have gobne over a major overhaul.
