BOOM! STUDIOS' ADVENTURE TIME: SEASON 11

BOOM! Studios has announced an October launch for Adventure Time Season 11 #1, the official comic book continuation of the Cartoon Network animated series.

The story of the Land of Ooo will continue on in comic book form from writer Sonny Liew and artist Marina Julia.

"I hadn't watched many animated series since the heyday of The Simpsons, but once I sat down and watched Adventure Time, I was immediately hooked," Liew said. "It gave me a sense of afternoons spent watching cartoons as a kid, somehow appealing to both the adult and kid inside you. I didn't try to analyze the form or structure too much, wanting to just enjoy the series on its own... but I suppose now I'm working on scripts for the comics, I'll have to watch it again with a different lens, and try to figure out the methods behind the magic."

"I've had a lot of fun working on Adventure Time: Beginning of the End, and I'm looking forward to getting to work on more Adventure Time," said Marina Julia. "It's a really fun series and to be able to play in that space is always really enjoyable."

The first issue features a main cover by Jorge Corona, along with variant covers by Julie Benbasset, Audrey Mok and Paul Pope.

The battle lines are drawn as they launch into a kinetic, action-packed offensive."

MARVEL TEASERS: Marvel Comics has released teasers image for October's Champions #25, from Jim Zub, Sean Izaakse and Max Dunbar.

Here's how Marvel describes the issue:

"Jim Zub, Sean Izaakse, and Max Dunbar are taking the Champions on the ultimate quest -- one that involves an adventure beyond what could ever be imagined! But as they travel through this twisted fantasy realm, one thing becomes clear: they may never be the same."

"With two of their teammates having vanished into Weirdworld, the rest of the Champions have no choice but to follow them into that ever-changing landscape," said editor Tom Brevoort. "However, the changes this will put them through are both profound and unexpected -- and will lead to something new on the horizon!"

"Everyone who knows me and my work knows that sword and sorcery is near and dear to my heart. It's a potent vehicle for building stories of survival and heroism in worlds where life can end on the tip of a blade and creatures lurk in every shadow," Zub said. "The Champions fight for what's right, no matter where they are...or who they are, and this upcoming weird and wonderful three-part story is going to show you how true that is."
