Rebecca Mock

Hope Larson, the award-winning cartoonist behind A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel, has teamed up with illustrator Rebecca Mock for Compass South, the first book in the planned middle-grade graphic novel series telling the story of a pair of young twins in 19th century New York who tumble into a world of piracy, adventure, and hidden treasure.

If you expected Adventure Time's protagonist and noted last human on Ooo to adopt better bathing habits just by virtue of getting gender-swapped, you'd better think again. This week's Adventure Time With Fionna & Cake #2 backup by Lucy Knisley demonstrates that not only is Fionna's monster-slaying spirit the equal of her male counterpart Finn's - so too is her stench after failing to prioritiz

Many of Rebecca Mock's illustrations capture quiet moments: a sticky Sunday spent in bed, a moment spent lingering over coffee and laptops, a first kiss snatched in a garden. But there are bigger, louder pieces as well--the wind sweeping flowers all around a kite flier, an offending yakuza cutting off the tip of his finger...

In its quest to continue delivering gender-swapped goodness -- perhaps the most demanded content in all of Adventure Time fandom -- Boom Studios has shared more art from its upcoming Adventure Time: Fionna & Cake comic book six-issue miniseries with ComicsAlliance. Se...
