BOOM! Studios and Cartoon Network have announced the upcoming limited series Adventure Time: Marcy & Simon heading to comic book stores January 2019. The series is written by Olivia Olson and artist Slimm Fabert. The series is the official comic book continuation of the animated series showing what’s up next for Marceline the Vampire Queen and the former Ice King.
After the events of the series finale of Adventure Time, Marceline and Simon are reunited. The former Ice King has asked Marceline to help him made amends for all the bad things he did as the Ice King.
“Craziness and wonder aside, the best thing about Adventure Time™ is the show’s ability to make you feel,” said writer Olivia Olson. “Great storytelling can punch you in the gut with laughter, tears or ‘Woah, me too.’ Playing Marceline for the past 8 years has taught me a lot about myself. Besides the whole, demon/vampire post-apocalyptic childhood, she and I have all too much in common. Some of that will definitely come out in this series. I want to thank Cartoon Network and BOOM! Studios for the opportunity to keep these characters story going. I hope to do our queen proud and keep the spirit of Adventure Time™ alive undead.”
Adventure Time: Marcy & Simon #1 comes out January 16, 2019.
