A Circus Kingdom Show Turns Hostage Crisis in Adventure Time, Bringing Its Favorite Duo Officially Back
A return to alternate Ooo
The first Adventure Time episode centered on Fionna and Cake came through a story told by the Ice King. He described a swordswoman and her stretchy cat, then cast himself in the romantic role. That tale introduced an alternate Ooo populated by its own unusual characters, including Ice Queen, who could cause trouble just as readily as the Ice King.
Ice Queen takes charge
In Oni Press’ new four-issue comic, Prince Gumball invites Fionna and Cake to a one-night-only show in the Circus Kingdom. Ice Queen was left off the guest list, but arrives anyway and claims control.
In the second issue, she kidnaps the princes and takes the kingdom’s citizens hostage. She says they will be released if Fionna and Cake join her performance and make it through without a mistake.
Three covers revealed
Collider exclusively revealed three covers for Adventure Time: Fionna & Cake #2. The artwork is by series writer Jenna Ayoub, Reggie Graham and Dakota Cates. Fionna and Cake had expected to watch from the audience. Instead, they must perform under Ice Queen’s terms.
