During a game of hide and seek, Finn finds himself lost in the land of the Forgotten. Marceline and the Scream Queens. One nice little perk to the comic is the tiny little notes on This is our oldest son's comic, but I thought I'd read it anyway. There is subtle effeminophobia and I still dunno how I feel about the Ice King. I picked this up because I adore Adventure Time and thought it would be fun to read the comics that followed our mathematical heroes Finn and Jake in the magical land of Ooo. The Lich travels the land, sucking the world into his magic bag and trapping the denizens of Ooo in a strange desert world. The all-ages hit of the year is now available in a deluxe larger hardcover and totally mathematical edition! Volumes have only main Issues, Sugary Shorts have only Shorts. The green notes were PERFECT, but also the little row of the panels that were in just a few pages, with Marceline and then the commercial - that one - and the black page made me get a few weird looks in the bus, because I couldn't control myself Really if you like "Adventure Time", check out this comic!!

Shio and Kosho, with the help of YOU the congoers, defeated the alien forces and grounded Shoyu on planet Vidya—a world where the physics, landmarks, and inhabitants have developed into something remarkably similar to the video games we are familiar with here on Earth. However, it seems that Shoyu would not be defeated so easily. After crash landing on Vidya, he began to court the local inhabitants of the planet to join him and fight for his cause! With the planet he was supposed to be trapped on becoming a new source of power, it was up to you Kami-Congoers once again to rise to the occasion and help Shio and Kosho stop Shoyu! (This seems to happen a lot. Who would have known that having the Spirit of the Yandere Black Turtle for a magical animal mascot would have brought so much drama to Kami-Con? Oh, well!) With the help of the congoers, Shoyu only managed to recruit three powerful allies— Ken from Street Fighter, Princess Peach from Super Mario Bros., and Link from The Legend of Zelda. Shio and Kosho recruited Ryu from Street Fighter, and Vault Boy from Fallout. These heroes met on the battlefield known asSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate! It was truly an epic match—and in the end, it was Shio and Kosho who proved victorious! His coup having been thwarted, Shoyu agreed to team back up with the congirls to continue their journey through space toward World Conquest! Everything should be fine now as long as they don’t all, say, crash their starship into a mysterious beach planet… right?

Animating Social Pathology: Ontology, Aesthetics, and Cartoon Alienation by Wolfgang Boehm Under the Direction of Professor Greg Smith ABSTRACT This thesis grounds an unstable ontology in animation’s industrial history and its plas- matic aesthetics, in-so-doing I find animation to be a site of rendering visible a particular con- frontation with an inability to properly rationalize, ossify, or otherwise delimit traditionally held boundaries of motility. Because of this inability, animation is privileged as a form to rethink our interactions with media technology, leading to utopian thought and bizarre, pathological behav- ior. I follow the ontological trend through animation studies, using Pixar’s WALL-E as a guide. I explore animation as an afterimage of social pathology, which stands in contrast to the more lu- dic thought of a figure such as Sergei Eisenstein, using Black Mirror’s “The Waldo Moment.” I look to two Cartoon Network shows as examples of potential alternatives to both the utopian and pathological of the preceding chapters.

  • Bradshaw Stanley Abstract. in This Thesis I View Th
    Stanley 1 MA VCS Thesis Proposal Title: But We, To Whom The World Is Author: Bradshaw Stanley Abstract. In this thesis I view the animated children’s show Adventure Time as a 21st century “surrogate,” in the sense developed by performance theorist Joseph Roach, for Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. By viewing “surrogation,” reconstruction, and even re-enactment as occurring between two artworks rather than two artists, I outline a theory of desubstantialized “body-to-body transmission” that does not rely on “real” or substantial bodies for its support. I conclude by arguing that embodiment can be understood as a formal problem rather than one defined by organic function or phenomenological sensoria. Research Areas. Embodiment, Affect Theory, Formalism, Animation Theory, Performance Studies, American Studies, Childhood Studies, Queer Theory, Film Studies, New Media, Visual Studies, Critical Theory Agenda. Popularly acclaimed as “the trippiest show on television” (Rolling Stone), “groundbreaking…[and] ever more experimental” (AV Club), “sneakily sophisticated” (New York Times), and “dark, gripping and almost nightmarish” (Indiewire), Adventure Time may sound more like an HBO series than a Cartoon Network animated children’s program. Because such accolades are typically reserved for adult (not to mention live- action, "underground" or foreign) productions, it is unsurprising that Adventure Time has been used to satirize conservative cultural anxieties, as in a ChristWire article that, perhaps picking up on the show’s “trippiness” and eagerness to experiment, asks whether it is “a gateway drug to LSD, homosexuality, and the rave lifestyle.” Such satire indicates a bleed between the formal qualities of a work and the embodied responses its viewers, in this case young children, may have: being exposed to trippy and experimental work, the thinking goes, may incline one to seek out trips and experimentation in other contexts.

However, this concept of slant does not account for the broader network, which, like the singular program, cultivates a catalog of programming into a singular slanted message becoming an ecosystem of shows relying on each other to maintain viewership.
