It's so fascinating to me that the showrunners decided to give The Lich character depth after all these years... on one hand i love it cuz it show us that even something like the Lich can be complex... but on the other hand i have the feeling that Adam Muto and the gang felt like bringing him back once again wasn't enough, that his schtick was getting repetitive so they had to do something new with him xddd. Minute 9:05 the fact that we see Jake's favorite Mug again from the episode "Puhoy" here is no mere cameo... this is the episode where we meet Golb/Betty again since Come Along With Me, and "Puhoy" was the episode where we saw Golb for the very first time in the franchise.... so showing that mug here was a very intentional decision. Yes, Gibbon is the son of Charlie and the second grandchild of Jake (after Bronwyn of course), he appeared almost at the end of "Daddy Daughter Card Wars" and also in the intro of "Come Along With Me". (All of the information im gonna give you now comes from Steve Wolfhard, a writter and storyboarder of the show who made a bunch of concept art related to the Pup Kingdom and Gibbon, so it doesn't count as spoilers). To make a long story short... Jake and Lady's descendants become their own race on OOO called Pups, eventually forming the "Pup Kingdom" (that we see in this episode), all of these pups develop their own unique powers, like for example... Pup #414 "Herm" has the power of "Division" that lets him cast out his own skeleton which then becomes sentient. Pup #6791 "Jess" has the power to create holographic images in the world. Pup #7006 "Raisin" has a power called "Holy Shit" which enables her to become a sort of Magical Explosion that petrifies everyone in it's Blast's Radius. Beth's title is "The Pup Princess" and her full name is actually "Bethany Burrito Jakson the Fourth", and judging by the surname "Jakson"... as well as "the fourth".... she must be the most direct descendant of Jake and Lady besides Gibbon. But the real interesting character here is indeed Gibbon, as it appears he became a dictator in the Pup Kingdom, and has managed to gained inmortality by stealing one of the Crown Jewels from the Ice Thing (Gunther), and since he became a dictator he has been extinguishing the powers of all of the other pups. Beth refused for her power to be stolen and that's why she's a fugitive of the kingdom now.

2025-11-12 02:05:38 +0000 UTCRemember when Prismo explained that since Jake went back in time, technically Finn never made his wish (that the Lich never even existed) but he also still did, so that wish-altered reality still existed? That means, even if your wish is undone by time travel shenanigans, so that you never made your wish in the first place, the world created by your wish still continues to exist. That means there was always a world where the Lich wisheded for the extinction of all life, and Prismo granted it. So everything that happened in the world up until the season 4 finale is our canon universe, and then that timeline diverged because everyone died when the Lich made his wish. That version of the Lich still killed Billy, then tricked Finn into gathering the gems and opening the portal, made his wish (the extinction of all life) and was then sent to a version of Ooo where every living thing was dead. As far as he knows, his wish was never undone at all, he just won.
