Cartoon Network’s Adventure Time is a magical show about an androgynous boy named Finn and his best friend, a dog named Jake the Dog, who travel through the Land of Ooo to try and save Finn’s best friend, Princess Bubblegum, from the evil Ice King. The show, created by Pendleton Ward, John DiMaggio, and Kent Osborne, is a love letter to all things nerdy, and a prime example of the many types of storytelling that exist in the realm of graphic novels.
Adventure Time has a rich and detailed history, from its origins as a comic strip to its current TV run. To celebrate the show’s eighth season, we’ve highlighted some of the cartoon’s most interesting backstory and trivia. Let’s explore A Very Brief History of Adventure Time!
After eight seasons, 166 episodes, and a bunch of different mediums, Adventure Time has come to an end. The creators of the show are currently working on a new animated show with a new set of characters called The Cool Party, and it’s also been reported that Ward and his team are working on an animated movie based on the Adventure Time characters.
