" was editing a batch of all-ages licensed books that nobody was really looking to work on except for young creators like myself looking for an entry point or older creators hard up for work," Dorkin says. A decade later, Dorkin would win multiple Eisner awards for his anthology series Dork, but back then, he was a young cartoonist looking to break into the industry at large. Written and drawn by alt-comics icon Evan Dorkin, Bill & Ted's Excellent Comic Book launched shortly after Bogus Journey in 1991. However, there's once exception: Bill & Ted's Excellent Comic Book - a short-lived Marvel series that, like the films, was way better than anyone would've expected. Unfortunately, most of those have aged with considerably less grace than the movies themselves.
Like any successful film series of the late 1980s and early '90s, the Bill & Ted movies spawned a slew of spinoffs: videogames, an animated series, and even a terrible live-action pilot. But after the customary re-watch of Excellent Adventure and Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey you might find yourself loitering outside of the neighborhood Circle K, sobbing into a pretzel and wondering how you'll ever fill the bleeding Bill & Ted-shaped hole in your life. It's a milestone that deserves observing. This week marks a momentous occasion - the 25th anniversary of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
