What's to Love: There's no better way to celebrate Halloween than with a self-contained story about Marceline the Vampire Queen set during the... summer? Ah well, you get the idea! What's even better is that this one-shot is written and illustrated by Hanna K., a storyboard artist for the Adventure Time animated series!

What It Is: If you've ever wondered what Marceline was like before she became a vampire, here's your chance to find out! In this oversized, self-contained tale that takes place before she was "turned," we learn all about Marceline's backstory and find out how she became the Vampire Queen she is today!

    This is an incredible addition to the Adventure Time label. Marceline has always been my favorite character, and it’s awesome to see her in such a vulnerable position, gaining power as she deals with it. Hanna K has done a great job with this one-shot, making it a truly awesome read—crucial for any and all Adventure Time fans! Read Full Review

    Word Of The Nerd - Zac Kandell Oct 30, 2015

    This issue was fun to read, but also not the most substantial comic you'll find. It feels just like Adventure Time to me with its whimsical sense of fun, but there's not a lot other than that. I don't know how people more familiar with the show would take it, and it was admittedly somewhat slight, but I enjoyed it a lot for what it is. Read Full Review

    It's possible that my problem is half with the overall story pace (~30 pages that are repetitive in some ways and limited to a one-shot) and half with the billing this story received, since it lacked the gravitas of a one-off story, or the visual/story themes of a halloween story beyond the mere presence of vampires. Still, if you really like Adventure Time, I don't see any reason to avoidthe title, necessarily. Read Full Review
