Time to get mathematical, once again. Oni Press has announced that they’re launching a brand-new Adventure Time ongoing series, beginning April, 2025. And they’ve brought an array of talent so strong it’s enough to make you go “ooo!”
Things will kick off in Adventure Time #1 with a new story arc titled “Best Buds” by cartoonist Nick Winn. And after that, more new stories from Caroline Cash, Derek Ballard, Asia Simone, Jorge Monlongo, Brenda Hicke and even more beyond that.
“ADVENTURE TIME was such a huge part of me growing up,” said Winn via press release provided to Comic Book Club.” Not only was it hilarious, but it had such an emotional intelligence that very few shows could pull off back then. Being able to revisit the land of Ooo through Oni Press has really been such a joy and a challenge to build something new while still keeping the energy and charm the show cast on me in middle school!”
Added series editor Megan Brown, “We’re thrilled to welcome readers back to distant lands with all new adventures featuring their favorite ADVENTURE TIME characters. The land of Ooo has long been home to some of the most radically unique comics, and we’re excited to add to their rich legacy with an incredible creative team crafting a story that is full of friendship, heart, and wild new challenges for Finn & Jake to overcome. BEST OF BUDS is the perfect jumping-off point for new readers—and a return to form for old friends!”
The first issue is written by Winn and Ballard, with art by Winn and Ballard. It will also feature covers by Winn, David Nakayama, Trung Le Nguyen, Tillie Walden, Caroline Cash, Shelli Paroline & Braden Lamb, and Erica Henderson, as well as two sketch variants.
