Super Happy Magic Forest

(3) K-3 When the Mystical Crystals of Life are stolen from Super Happy Magic Forest, five heroes must travel to Goblin Tower to get them back. Long subverts every fantasyland cliché, starting with casting improbable heroes: Blossom, a unicorn; Trevor, a mushroom; and so on. The cartoony art is riddled with dialogue-balloon-supplied humor (one "hero": "Did anyone bring any bug spray?").
