At the height of its run, it enjoyed over twenty thousand daily readers and has been translated into multiple languages.
Presented here is the first fifty-seven comics of the series, wrapped in a custom built reader designed to make the experience of reading and rereading AMD as enjoyable as possible. At long last, experience the epic adventure anywhere, anytime.
Features: * 57 complete comics - the first four chapters. * Pan between panels by tapping on the edges of the screen. * Keeps track of the last comic you were on. * Create bookmarks for your favorite comics. * Thumbnail view for quickly finding comics at a glance.
AMD is rated 14+ for mild language, immature situations, crude humor, suggestive themes, and a scene of intense cartoon violence. 2009 Sean Howard

Not only is it an awesome pixel comic, but it's also...   This is a very long free comic (OVER 300 PANELS) with an amazing comic AND comic reader, and is the best comic/reader i've seen on the app store. Download now, no reason not to. Its free and its great. Plus, the full version is a bargain. REVIEW ->>Not only is it an awesome pixel comic, but it's also the best comic reader program i have ever seen. There is a great loading screen, the main menu is an interactive animation of the character walking through rooms with different characters that spawn based on the comic you are reading. You can continue your comic, choose a chapter, or check bookmarks that you can make of a certain comic page and even type in a description!!! That's not even getting into the comic yet. The way you read the comic is that you can tap left to go back a panel, right to go forward a panel, and tap the middle to get options or fullscreen. The way you read is you see the entire comic page, and its sort of like a camera in the way that it zooms into a panel, and depending on the size and shape the camera zooms in our out to adjust. This works incredibly well. There is even a nice animation when you click the middle to get options where it zooms back a bit to make space. It is the closest thing to reading and actual comic book that I have ever seen anywhere. Now onto the comic: If you know what pixels and RPG's are, then you'll be right at home. Making fun of all of the cliches and weird rules of RPG games, this is a nerd's comic paradise. If you've ever seen code monkeys, you'll really love the style too. It is a pixel comic in the sense that it is a very pixelated art style, but still remains high quality. It's not like he made the comics and then zoomed in to a low quality picture. Pixel Art is actually drawing it through pixels, not through a program. It works insanely well to make fun of the RPG's of yore, and I would say that it is the best comic available on the app store (and there are alot of them). Best comic AND best comic reader. YOU HAVE NO REASON NOT TO DOWNLOAD THIS. ITS FREE, ITS GREAT, AND YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY BUY THE FULL VERSION WHICH HAS OVER 2,000 PANELS!!!!!!

Awespme!   I had never heard of AMD until today, which is too bad. I have been missing out on one the funniest comics out there. Get the paid version with over 700 comics. 5 bucks for hours of fun! Less than an average book from the store! An amazing buy!

Very Funny   This parody of video game RPGs starts out as funny one shot jokes, but builds into something much more - with a rich world of interesting characters and a complex, twisting story. This app makes one of my favorite comics even more fun to read and share. It's easy to use, just click on the sides and you go to the next or previous panel. Minimum load and simple navigation make reading AMD on the iPhone superior to reading it on the web.
