3.5 stars because of the ending cliff-hanger. I'm not always a fan of these and in this definitely not.

I was Team Logan from early on, he might have been a bit of a player but you could tell he really liked Neva. And it only got confirmed further through the story and Neva, being a bit weird if you ask me, is a bit mean to him with her actions, so unfortunately she went down in my books for that.

As for Angel, he might have been good looking and a really nice guy but I always felt something was wrong with him especially after the restaurant scene and after the prologue with the man in bed I figured he was somehow related to the man who killed Neva and Tate's dad based on his eye colour

Neva, as I mentioned earlier annoyed me with how she thought things through near the end she could be an undamaged, normal, person with Angel because he didn't know her secrets but not with Logan who knew everything. Doesn't really make sense to me, but oh well.

Kudos

Eleanor Luhar (47 KP) rated Adventure Time Vol. 5 in Books

Jun 24, 2019

Just a quick review of this, as it's pretty similar to all the previous volumes.

Familiar characters dominate the stories as usual, including Jake, Finn, BMO, Princess Bubblegum, Ice King, Marceline and even Lemongrab. The relationships between the characters are nice in this, especially regarding PB and Marceline.

The stories are funny, weird and super enjoyable, full of humour and colour and adventure (duh). The fourth wall is, of course, practically nonexistent, as the commentary along the bottom of the pages addresses the audience directly. It really immerses you in the world of Finn and Jake, as well as adding another layer of humour. The commentary makes these comics unique from most others.

The art is awesome. I still love looking through the gallery of covers at the end. The colours are so vivid and the styles are all so wonderful. It's one of the nicest comics to just look at.

Of course, it is kinda childish. But it's an easy and relaxing read, and there are some very subtle jokes and comments that only older readers will understand.

4 stars. It's a really fun read, and I love all the characters so much!
