THIS WAS SO GOOD! The Prince Gumball/Marshall Lee scenes were beyond what I was hoping for. So cute and angsty— I need more! The art was really cute too, and close enough to the actual show art. I liked that this didn’t have an “and then the Ice King finished telling the story” ending too; I like to think of Fionna and Cake as somewhere in the multiverse, not Ice King fanfic! And this really felt like a genuine AT story, just with the genders swapped. I highly recommend this is you’re an AT fan and/or you’re a PG/ML shipper. 5/5 stars.

Very sweet and fun, just like Adventure Time should be! The plots running parallel to each other were well done (plus I’m a sucker for a surprise party moment :3 )

This book was alright. It wasn't amazing, but it was still a fun read. It felt like a mediocre episode of Adventure Time. If that's what you're looking for, then you'll enjoy this book. Of course there are better Adventure Time comics out there, but this was fun for what it is. Don't expect too much of it, but don't expect too little of it either.

Of the various tie-in comics in the Adventure Time expanded universe, I think the most effective are the spin off series, each focusing on fan favorite characters who have a relatively limited time in the show itself, including the genderbent alternate reality interpretations of Fionna and Cake. In this last entry in the comic series after the end of the TV series itself, Party Bash Blues by Kate Sheridan and Vivian Ng, tells an engaging if quite sweet story (not too surprising when the main antagonist is a monstrous cake) that allows readers to spend more time with these characters, ending it all on a very sweet note.

I share more of my thoughts on Adventure Time comic tie ins my article "Adventure Time” in Amber: Its Bittersweet Nostalgia and Comics, at Fandom Fanatics.

This was just as rip-roaring, and adventure packed as a Finn and Jake outing.

A cute story about a birthday party gone wrong or the best birthday ever, it all depends on how you look at it. Fun adventure with Fionna and Cake.

Nice artwork, fun story, and a good read. Nice message about friendship at the end as well. A sweet (literally) adventure story full of fun, suspense, and new friendships.

Cute book overall. This is pure Fionna and Cake and it's adorable.
