It’s chaos at Hot Dog Princess’s cookout! We’re raising the steaks in this issue of Adventure Time from cartoonist/writer Nick Winn (Bloody Mary) and stellar artist Corinth Boone (Peony)!
Finn and Jake are on a quest to create their own Enchiridion, and it’s taken them to the Hot Dog Kingdom, where Robot Finn is continuing to cook up some havoc. Concerned and confused (or is that indigestion?), can our dynamic duo take what Robot Finn is dishing out? Or will they end up being burned? It’s a dog eat dog world in this next issue of ‘Handbook Heroes’!
Plus: The continuation of our totally mathematical Lemonhope backup story by writer Elizabeth Brei and artist Cleonique Hilsaca—featuring the cutest candy-dog to ever graced the land of Ooo!
Benjamin HC
Written By: Ben H. Winters
Art By: Leomacs
Cover By: Christian Ward
IN ONE L.A. MOTEL ROOM, A COSMIC QUEST IS ABOUT TO BEGIN . . .
More than just a writer, more than just a science-fiction icon, Benjamin J. Carp was a cultural revolutionary. Over the course of 44 novels and hundreds of short stories—including the counterculture classic The Man They Couldn’t Erase—Carp pushed the boundaries of literary respectability for the sci-fi genre and his readers’ perception of reality itself . . . until decades of amphetamine abuse and Southern California excess finally ended a mind-bending career that always just escaped mainstream success. He died in 1982.
Until 2025 . . . when Benjamin J. Carp awakens, alive, in a burned-out motel on the fringes of Los Angeles. He remembers dying. He knows he shouldn’t exist. Is he a dream? A robot? A ghost? A clone? A simulation? In his own time, Carp pondered all of these scenarios through his fiction—and now, as he treks from Studio City to Venice Beach and onward into the paranoid sprawl of 21st-century Los Angeles, he will be called to investigate his greatest mystery yet: himself.
From Edgar Award nominee and Philip K. Dick Award winner Ben H. Winters (EC’s Cruel Universe, The Last Policeman trilogy) and rising star Leomacs (EC’s Epitaphs from the Abyss, Ghostlore) comes a uniquely fascinating and hilariously deranged excursion into the metatextual nexus, where existence and oblivion, past and future, genius and madness, and glitter and grim reality all meet just beyond Hollywood Boulevard.
Frankie And The Curious Cocoon Quest HC
Written/Art/Cover By: Caitlin Rose Boyle
From Caitlin Rose Boyle (Jonesy, Frankie and the Creepy Cute Critters, and Frankie and the Beastly Bog Song) comes the next Frankie Fairy adventure perfect for young explorers!
Frankie Fairy loves to learn about creepy critters! Joined by her biologist mom, and equipped with a field guide full of creepy critter facts, Frankie finds all aspects of nature fascinating! That is until Tuna, her beloved pet wooly bear caterpillar, is nowhere to be found. Frankie’s mom thinks Tuna must finally be entering metamorphosis—a time of change when Tuna would transform from a cuddly caterpillar to a flying moth. Frankie wants Tuna to stay the same little fuzzy worm she’s always been. But when she discovers the beauty of the transforming world around her, will she accept that one day, everybody—even Tuna—experiences some kind of change?
Ogrest Vol. 5 SC

Meanwhile, in the heavenly reaches of Inglorium, there is panic among the gods: A colossal energy is ravaging the World of Twelve and is heading toward Mount Zinit. Is Ogrest about to fight his last fight?
