The acclaimed team behind the Eisner Awardwinning Adventure Time™ comic books, New York Times best-selling author Ryan North (Squirrel Girl) and beloved illustrators Shelli Paroline & Braden Lamb (One Day a Dot: The Story of You, The Universe, and Everything), combine forces once again for an original sci-fi space comedy unlike anything the universe has ever seen! Space captain Joey, navigator Fatima, and scientist (and dinosaur) Cooper are headed to Earth-a planet completely sectioned off, abandoned, and covered in gold-and are confronted by the most powerful weapon in the universe: some ancient dead guy's body?! Now they gotta keep King Midas's body from being dropped on planets across the universe, and figure out exactly what to do with a gross dead dude with one truly ridiculous superpower. Collects the complete 8-issue series.
