Graphic novels

The epic saga spoof of Dungeons & Dragons and an inspiration to the likes of Adventure Timeis back with two new stories in the height of Dungeon's power! In the first chapter: to reclaim the Dungeon that fell to the scheming William Delacour, the plan is simple: Marvin, Isis, and Herbert must find some magic fugus purit and use it to dislodge the current occupants of the fortress. But is this really the Guardian's plan? Our heroes will have to fight against everyone to save the Dungeon. Meanwhile, will Marvin succeed in his engagement blast-of-firebreath 'Tong Deum'? In the second: according to the draconian tradition, Herbert is officially mandated by Marvin to go see his mother and announce his engagement to Pirzuine. Upon arrival, he discovers her murder. To avoid a bloodbath, will the valiant duck succeed in finding the culprit before Marvin arrives, without alienating the susceptible dragons who inhabit the village?

Reviews for Dungeon: Zenith Vol. 4: Outside the Ramparts

Boulet's detailed art, full of careful crosshatching and bold colors, offers an imaginative roster of fantasy creatures and settings that perfectly matches the off-kilter humor and high-key action scenes. Dungeons and Dragons-style stories have been having a moment, and this series will likely satisfy fans of The Adventure Zone comics. --Booklist Dungeon comics -- that's a big inspiration for me and the crew who write on the show. Dungeon's a great comic, and I look to it for the sort of casual conversation they have with the big fantasy world that they all live in. --Adventure Time's Pendleton Ward In the PASTE 10 Essential Euro Comics That Should Belong in Every Collection The humor can be biting and sly. And precisely because it is so light and warmhearted, the moments of melancholy and actual profundity reach into your chest, pull out your heart and keep it hostage. --The New York Times Book Review
