"This is a crisply-paced, cleverly drawn, and consistently funny comic... The smallest details add a level of quirk that's charming and amusing." —The Comics Journal

"This strange world and [its] sheer inventiveness... all are either nicely done or brilliant." —Optical Sloth

"The art is crisp and fun and displays a visibly practiced hand, showcasing an effective yet playful feel. The writing keeps a good pace while dropping jokes at just the right points, while establishing a subtle emotional framework." —Jordan Kamin, Clogged - A Comic Blog

Arthur Turnkey 1 is by Toby Jones, Alex Horab, Madeline Queripel, Amanda Thomas. The first in what was to be a new all-ages adventure serial.

Arthur Turnkey is a middle schooler sneezing his way through space-time. His achoo’s teleport him to lands unknown to mankind – replete with aliens and monsters. Part sci-fi/fantasy and part coming-of-age, our titular hero Arthur faces desert battles with aliens and middle school crushes. Arthur Turnkey’s noodly figures are surrounded by washes of blue, gray, and brown, reinforced by clean and descriptive linework.
