    Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Here There be Goblins!"

    Based on the Podcast by Clint McElroy, Griffin McElroy, Travis McElroy, and Justin McElroy. Adapted by Clint McElroy and Carey Pietsch. Art and cover by Carey Pietsch.

    Based on the McElroy family's smash hit podcast, a graphic novel following the metafictional adventures of three D&D characters and their interfering Dungeon Master, with art from rising star Carey Pietsch. Harken to my tale. Once upon a time (a couple of years ago) there were these brothers who had a bunch of really successful podcasts, and they decided to do a new podcast with their dad, where they all played D&D together as a family, and lo, this new podcast was called The Adventure Zone, and verily did it get downloaded over 10 million times, and wow did it totally eat the brains of all who listened, because: It was just. That. Rad. And then did these guys team up with artist Carey Pietsch, and make a graphic novel where the weirdly sweet and brilliant but also super vulgar and honestly kind of bizarre story of The Adventure Zone got adapted into a goofy, innovative, and compelling graphic novel!

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 256 pages, full color.

    Cover price $26.99.

    Volume 2 - 1st printing. "Murder on the Rockport Limited!"

    Based on the Podcast by Clint McElroy, Griffin McElroy, Travis McElroy, and Justin McElroy. Adapted by Clint McElroy and Carey Pietsch. Art and cover by Carey Pietsch.

    Hot on the heels of The Adventure Zone: Here There Be Gerblins, the smash hit graphic novel that launched the series, Murder on the Rockport Limited picks up the saga where volume 1 left off. Both books are based on The Adventure Zone, a tabletop RPG comedy podcast with downloads numbering in the tens of millions and an army of passionately devoted fans.

    We rejoin hero-adjacent sort-of-comrades-in-arms Taako, Magnus, and Merle on a wild careen through a D&D railroad murder mystery. This installment has a little of everything: a genius child detective, an axe-wielding professional wrestler, a surly wizard, cursed magical artifacts, and a pair of meat monsters. You know, the usual things you find on a train.

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 240 pages, full color.

    Cover price $26.99.

    Based on the Podcast by Clint McElroy, Griffin McElroy, Travis McElroy, and Justin McElroy. Adapted by Clint McElroy and Carey Pietsch. Art and cover by Carey Pietsch.

    Clint McElroy and sons Griffin, Justin, and Travis hit the road again with Taako, Magnus and Merle, the beloved agents of chaos from the #1 New York Times bestselling graphic novels.

    Our boys have gone full-time at the Bureau of Balance, and their next assignment is a real thorny one: apprehending The Raven, a master thief who's tapped into the power of a Grand Relic to ransack the city of Goldcliff. Local life-saver Lieutenant Hurley pulls them out of the woods, only to throw them headlong into the world of battle wagon racing, Goldcliff's favorite high-stakes low-legality sport and The Raven's chosen battlefield.

    Will the boys and Hurley be able to reclaim the Relic and pull The Raven back from the brink, or will they get lost in the weeds?

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 272 pages, full color.

    Volume 4 - 1st printing. "The Crystal Kingdom!"

    Based on the Podcast by Clint McElroy, Griffin McElroy, Travis McElroy, and Justin McElroy. Adapted by Clint McElroy and Carey Pietsch. Art and cover by Carey Pietsch.

    The fourth installment in the #1 New York Times-bestselling Adventure Zone graphic novel series, a hilarious meta-fictional D&D adventure story based on a smash hit podcast.

    When a desperate call for help interrupts the holiday celebrations at the Bureau of Balance, Taako, Magnus and Merlea are sent out after their fourth target for deadly relic Reclaiming: a powerful transmutation stone, hidden somewhere in the depths of a floating arcane laboratory that's home to the Doctors Maureen and Lucas Miller. An unknown menace has control of the stone and is using it to turn the lab into a virulent pink crystal that spreads to everything it touches. It's only a matter of time before this sparkling disaster crash-lands, but in order to find the stone and save the whole planet from being King Midased, our heroes will have to fight their way through a gauntlet of rowdy robots and crystal golems, figure out if they can trust the evasive Lucas Miller, and solve the mystery of what -- or who -- has put them in peril, all before there's no world left to save.

    Based on the blockbuster podcast where the McElroy brothers and their dad play a tabletop RPG and illustrated by cartooning powerhouse Carey Pietsch, The Adventure Zone: Crystal Kingdom takes this #1 New York Times Bestselling series to glittering new heights.

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 272 pages, full color.

    Cover price $27.99.

    Volume 5 - 1st printing. "The Eleventh Hour!"

    Based on the Podcast by Clint McElroy, Griffin McElroy, Travis McElroy, and Justin McElroy. Adapted by Clint McElroy and Carey Pietsch. Art and cover by Carey Pietsch.

    The Bureau of Balance has located yet another Grand Relic, and this time it's. time?

    A small mining town called Refuge has been locked away behind an arcane bubble, and somewhere inside it the Temporal Chalice is causing unknown mayhem. Taako, Magnus, and Merle are launched into their investigation, but they've barely had a chance to get their feet under them before the situation literally falls apart. When the town clock strikes noon, Refuge and its citizens are destroyed in a sudden chaos of flame and ruin, and our heroes' relic hunting-along with their lives-comes to an abrupt end. But whoa, what's this?

    It's 11:00 AM, our heroes are alive again, and Refuge definitely hasn't just been exploded. Looks like a classic time loop, friends!

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 252 pages, full color.
