    The Midas Flesh » The Midas Flesh #1 released by Boom! Studios on December 2013.

    Short summary describing this issue.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    WHY WE LOVE IT: We have been having so much fun with writer Ryan North (Dinosaur Comics, To Be Or Not To Be: That Is The Adventure) on ADVENTURE TIME that we couldn’t resist the opportunity to publish a new original idea of his. And it is original.

    WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT: We’ve all heard of The Midas touch. You know, the Greek Mythology about the man who did a number on himself by wishing for everything he touched to turn to gold? Who better to turn that tale on its head with a heavy dose of sci-fi than Ryan North? Also, did we mention the Utahraptor?

    WHAT IT’S ABOUT: Fatima and her space crew have decided to return to Earth—a planet completely sectioned off, abandoned, and covered in gold—to find out exactly what happened to this once thriving planet and see if they can use that knowledge against the evil empire that’s tracking them down. As luck would have it, they just landed the most powerful weapon in the universe: some ancient dead guy's body.

    A Family Friendly Time Spanning Space Tale. 0

    This comic was a last minute impulse buy for me this week. I usually can't go wrong with BOOM! Studios stuff so when something of theirs seems even mildly interesting I've learned to just get it.Upon first glance when I received my issue and cracked it open I noticed this is some kind of Boom! Studios imprint or something. It's called 'Boom! Box'. Uh oh, did I accidentally buy some little kid or teenager-safe book? Well, not officially but I guess I did. It's no biggie though as while it appears...
