The shape of it
The shape of this universe.
Adapted from Adam Foreman's popular Webtoon and Instagram webcomic, Slice of Mallow is a young graphic-novel line starring Mallow, an excitable but deeply pessimistic marshmallow, and his gang of food-shaped friends: Pizza, Ghost, Potato, Doughnut and rival Jelly. Each volume gathers three bite-sized comic adventures with the anything-goes, surreal energy of SpongeBob SquarePants and Adventure Time. The humour is silly and absurd, the pacing snappy, and the short-story format makes it a low-pressure gateway into comics for reluctant or newly independent readers who want maximum jokes per page. Bright, characterful and endlessly re-readable, it is comedy that keeps the pages turning.
A webcomic-turned-graphic-novel of bite-sized, absurd comic adventures starring a pessimistic marshmallow and his food-shaped friends. Maximum jokes, minimum sitting still.
