In 2010, Cartoon Network debuted a new animated series called
Adventure Time, and within just a few short years the show became
both a pop culture phenomenon and a critical darling. But despite
all the admiration, not many works of scholarship have assessed the
show through a critical lens. This anthology is an attempt to fill
this scholarly oversight and spark a wider conversation about the
show's deeper themes. Across 15 scholarly essays, this book's
contributors study Adventure Time from a variety of angles, proving
just how insightful the series really is. From a consideration of
BMO's queer identity to a psychoanalytic reading of Lemongrab and
an examination of how anime has impacted the show, the topics
explored in this anthology are diverse and unique and are likely to
appeal to scholars and fans alike.
