Am I the only one to think that Alt-Finn looks really creepy? Kind of reminds me of Lemongrab.

Actually, an update on that, that is actually false although it haven't been revealed in the show. Pendleton Ward stated on Formspring that this wasn't how he got his powers, he only think it was how he got them. Jake can't remember how he actually got them.

They've got the same nose. Everything with noses is really creepy in an universe where nobody else has got one.

On a closer look, their noses aren't the same. Lemongrab's nose is way thinner and longer.
Their eyes look similar though. However, Lemongrab's eyes are completely round while Bizarro Fin's have corners.

So I've been playing XCOM lately, and I decided to name my soldiers after AT characters.

In this game, soldiers get nicknames when they are promoted, and you can change those too. So I have Finn "The Human", Princess "Peebles" Bubblegum, Simon "Ice King" Petrikov etc.

Recently Peppermint Butler was promoted. He earned the nickname "Warlock". I've decided to keep that one as is. It just seems right.


Also have some fanarts I found (large images):

Is it just me, or does anyone else prefer Finn without the hat? I hope he'll go without it more often in the next season.

Yeah, he's a pretty good voice actor, though, honestly, I'm not sure if I've really run into him doing more than the one voice.

Edit: That is to say, all of his roles sound almost identical to me if not outright identical.

He's Captain Anderson in the Mass Effect series. He's also the Arbiter in Halo 2 and 3.

EDIT: Also, I loved when Finn pulled his hat off to let his hair flow majestically after seeing Billy's hair do so first. I also love the continuity of his hair since he cut it; it's been slowly getting longer every time we see it.

So, random thought: in one episode Princess Bubblegum collects taxes from Finn and Jake. But Finn and Jake don't live in the Candy Kingdom. Either PB controls more than just the Candy Kingdom, or she just suckered those two out of their money because they don't know how taxes work.

It is; it's also known as Magic: The Gathering. Just need a little imagination for the holograms though.

My guess is that the two make enough trips to the Candy Kingdom that Bubblegum feels like she has the right to tap into there huge hoard of gold.

Actualy, Finn and Jakes treasure pile might be the reason the Kingdom can afford to build up after such distasters like, say, Giant Gunter Attacks.

The Geopolitical landscape of Ooo isn't exactly well defined. There are plenty of Princesses, but only PB really seems to have much in the way of a kingdom. "The Candy Kingdom" seems to refer to the castle town, but it's possible her borders extend beyond that.

Isn't Short-Snap the princess of the Grasslands, though? I'm pretty sure we're all just reading to far into this. I think there's about a 0% chance that the writers made a conscious decision to make PB evil and have been throwing out small clues.

Honestly, the Goblins might have the closest thing to a grass-land kingdom. I mean, it is in a area clearly approchable from the Tree-fort, and the other princesses seen in the general area have been of the tiny, non-kingdomy type.
