It always brings a smile to my face to revisit the world of Adventure Time via this comics series, and that's true of this one, too, but that having been said I think it maybe didn't work quite as well for me as the previous ones.

As usual, there's a short one-shot here followed by a longer story. The one-shot is just... weird. Yes, even by Adventure Time's weird standards. There are dinosaurs (which very much bring to mind Ryan North's Dinosaur Comics in some downright surreal ways), and narration from sentient gemstones, and Ricardio for some reason?, and an art style I don't especially love. It does have some decent stuff about Marceline and Princess Bubblegum's relationship, although I found my eyebrows raising a bit over how strongly they are described as friends who are buddies who are really good pals, yep, yep, yep, until I realized that, oh, this was actually published before the cartoon established them as something a bit more than that.

The longer story features Finn and Jake exploring an old factory of some kind and finding a machine that turns them into ghosts. They try to be helpful ghosts for their friends, but it doesn't go well. Ghostbusters are called in, and next thing you know there are ghosts everywhere. This one felt a bit rambly, maybe, like it could actually have been three different episodes of the show. It's also maybe a smidge too on-the-nose with the moral lesson of the story. But it does still have some fun moments and bits of entertaining dialog, anyway. ( )
