The press release follows:

Media Release -- BOOM! Studios and Cartoon Network today revealed a first look at ADVENTURE TIME™: MARCY & SIMON #2 (of 6). Writer Olivia Olson (voice of Marceline on Cartoon Network's Adventure Time™) and artist Slimm Fabert (Adventure Time™ comic series) bring fans the exciting official comic book continuation of the Emmy® Award-winning Cartoon Network animated series by revealing what's next for the reformed Ice King and Vampire Queen Marceline in comic book form.

Marcy and Simon's friendship has endured over 900 years and through bouts of insanity and amnesia. So when Simon's memories of his life as the Ice King and his memories of Marceline, start slipping away, Marcy recruits Princess Bubblegum to figure out how to get them back. It's time for some mad science! But if even the maddest of science isn't enough to fix Simon's brain, where will Marcy turn next?

A modern day fable, the Emmy® Award–winning animated series Adventure Time™ has become a global success since its premiere in 2010, attracting adult and kid viewers in their millions over the course of 10 seasons. It follows unlikely heroes Finn and Jake, buddies who traverse the mystical Land of Ooo and encounter its colorful inhabitants. The best of friends, our heroes always find themselves in the middle of heart-pounding escapades. Finn, a silly kid with an awesome hat and Jake, a brassy dog with a big kind heart, depend on each other through thick and thin. Adventure Time™ is created by Pendleton Ward and produced at Cartoon Network Studios.

BOOM! Studios has been publishing the New York Times bestselling Adventure Time™ comic books and graphic novels through their KaBOOM! imprint for middle grade readers since 2012 and been honored with Eisner, Harvey, and Diamond Gem Awards for the series.

ADVENTURE TIME™: MARCY & SIMON is Olson's third writing contribution to the expanded literary world of the eponymous franchise, previously collaborating with her father Martin Olson (the voice of "Hunson Abadeer") on The Adventure Time™ Encyclopedia. The two also co-authored Adventure Time™: The Enchiridion & Marcy's Super Secret Scrapbook, written from a first-person perspective through Marceline's diary entries about when she and Simon first met. Both Adventure Time™ books, published in partnership between Abrams and Cartoon Network, are available now everywhere books are sold.

ADVENTURE TIME™: MARCY & SIMON #2 features a main cover by Brittney Williams (Goldie Vance), along with variant covers by illustrators Ray Tonga and Ashley Morales (Adventure Time™ ).
