In the second Adventure Zone graphic novel (adapted from the McElroy
family's wildly popular D&D podcast), 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.
Hot on the heels of The Adventure Zone: Here There Be Gerblins, the
smash hit graphic novel that launched the series, The Adventure Zone:
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. With art and co-adaptation from Carey
Pietsch, the McElroys are once again turning their raucous freewheeling
D&D campaign into some damn fine comics.
