In the land of the myriad gods, Riku and Tunna face the most holy and unholy men in existence. The boys also join the pilgrimage of 10 million tarnished karmas to cleanse themselves of all their sins.

Madventures is looking for the ultimate meaning of the ancient philosophy. On Mad Cook’s plate, a hot dog is served.

Explorers Rantala & Milonoff get lost in terra incognita, the darkest of jungle infested with mummies, missionaries and other merciless predators as they search for the mankind’s ultimate taboo. Is cannibalism still alive?

Madventures is looking for faith, hope and charity where none is usually found – prisons and cemeteries. Riku becomes a practicing catholic in the most painful sense of the word as the boys take part in the Easter ceremonies like you rarely get to see.

Riku and Tunna travel through South-East Asia to in search of freedom. Drinking cobra blood and shooting bazookas, our mad men take on the ruthless military junta of Myanmar.
