The Adventure Zone: Here There Be Gerblins
Welcome to the Adventure Zone!
SEE! The illustrated exploits of three lovable dummies set loose in a classic fantasy adventure!
READ! Their journey from small-time bodyguards to world-class artifact hunters!
MARVEL! At the sheer metafictional chutzpah of a graphic novel based on a story created in a podcast where three dudes and their dad play a tabletop role playing game in real time!
Join Taako the elf wizard, Merle the dwarf cleric, and Magnus the human warrior for an adventure they are poorly equipped to handle AT BEST, guided ("guided") by their snarky DM, in a graphic novel that, like the smash-hit podcast it's based on, will tickle your funny bone, tug your heartstrings, and probably pants you if you give it half a chance.
With endearingly off-kilter storytelling from master goofballs Clint McElroy and the McElroy brothers, and vivid, adorable art by Carey Pietsch, The Adventure Zone: Here There be Gerblins is the comics equivalent of role-playing in your friend's basement at 2am, eating Cheetos and laughing your ass off as she rolls critical failure after critical failure.
The Adventure Zone
The #1 New York Times bestselling graphic novel series based on the smash-hit podcast of a father and his three sons playing Dungeons & Dragons in real time, The Adventure Zone graphic novels follow the exploits of three adventurers across a fantasy realm. With Clint McElroy's Dungeon Master "guiding" his sons Griffin, Justin, and Travis in their characters of Taako the elf wizard, Merle the dwarf cleric, and Magnus the human warrior, their adventures quickly become snarky and hilarious misadventures.
The Adventure Zone consists of five books, and the series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
