When the water supply of Fraggle Rock mysteriously runs dry, the Fraggles have to journey deep into the caves of Fraggle Rock to find the fabled Everspring where adventure awaits and no Fraggle has gone before! It's the beloved characters of Fraggle Rock in their biggest story yet!
The collaboration between Leth and Myler is amazing. I felt like I had traveled back to my childhood. I had a large grin plastered on my face the whole time I was reading the book. If people didnt know any better theyd think I breathed in some of the Jokers laughing gas. Id recommend this book to anyone that grew up watching the show. Its great for all ages much like the shows weve come to love from The Jim Henson Company. I look forward to reading the rest of this mini series. Read Full Review

Leth has an uncanny ability for telling all-ages stories, and after reading Everspring, I can honestly say that this truly has a boundless appeal to it. She absolutely understands the mind and imagination of comic book readers, and has proved to us that we can enjoy a comic that we may have bought for our children. The art in this is radiantly breathtaking, and has immediately made me a fan of Jake Myler. With gorgeous colors and clever writing, Journey to Everspring is a no-brainer for Fraggle Rock and comic book fans alike. Read Full Review
It is a really easy read, which makes sense as it is a kids book. But most important is it is a really fun read, with a real sense of likeability flowing through the pages. Henson fan or not, this is a book that needs to be gently placed into each child's hand. It is a pure all ages book, that will work for everyone on a different level. Read Full Review
It's also not clear who the comic's target audience is. The show hasn't been on TV for quite a while, so there are very few kids who would even know what a fraggle is, let alone want to read about one. The story line is too base and expository to be for an older fan. Maybe Boom! thinks there's a huge market of Fraggle Rock-raised parents who will find their way into a comic shop and blindly buy this for their kids? Read Full Review
