Regular Show #1
Mordecai and Rigby are stuck on trash duty at the local concert. With Muscle Man and High Five Ghost show up, Mordecai dares Muscle Man to start a mosh pit at the snooze inducing concert. After livening things up a bit, Muscle Man and the rest of the crowd seem to be possessed! Skips the yeti tells the group that the moshing has awoken an ancient and terrible power, one that can threaten the whole town.

Green’s writing is perfect for this book. He’s most well known for his webcomic Gunshow and his sense of humor fits perfectly with the off-the-wall sort of flow that Regular Show had on tv. With a show that is anything but regular, it helps to have someone who truly understands odd humor. Green gets his first big jump to writing a print comic, but he does it well. The writing could easily be that of one of the shows, and that’s exactly what the comic needed.

Allison Strejlau captured the visual style of the show wonderfully. It basically looks like the show was printed on the paper a scene at a time, while also allowing for Strejlau to put some of her own style in their. It’s a great looking book that people will enjoy.
This is one of the best show to comic adaptations I’ve ever seen. It captures the heart of the show perfectly and should please readers both young and old.
