  • most of these were taken from scattered clips all over the internet so sorry about the major quality changes for some of the clips.
    Also, this video's getting really big so I would like you to know that I have a main channel [@R0V1]. Shameless plug, I know, but I post animations and other cool art-things there and I'd much rather have you subscribe for something I put a lot of effort into making than a compilation video i made in like an hour.

Death himself doesn't even object and he's right next to Peppermint, nor prismo, because the lich can't kill, he can't leave until he sees an opportunity. Another reason why the lich is far more dangerous then many think, death and prismo himself don't object to Peppermints worry with "We can take care of him" they know he's really just as powerful even if in different ways.

    But over the course of the show we learn that the Lich is a *universal constant*

Ooo Prime was officially WIPED of all life during the Farmworld arc until Jake wished Prismo to go back in time and changed the Lich's wish.

    That's what the Lich never understood. Chaos isn't death, it's life. It's the struggle of the unknown, the torment of what is next, the uncertainty of chance. In death, the chaos ends. In all his studies he never came upon the realization that in his creation of chaos, he possessed an end--he aimed for Order as a servant of chaos. Golb never acted in pure death and destruction; it acted in mania and madness, corrupting everything around it. The Lich was never going to succeed, because his goal from the start was to fail Golb in not understanding what it was Golb wanted.

    I genuinely think that the interaction with GOLB and Lich changes how we knew Lich. We always thought he was the embodiment of evil, a constant that cannot change and the end of all things. But the interaction recontextualizes a lot about him. He isn't some powerful embodiment or the end of all things. In the end, he's just a small being that was led by a god he didn't understand to give him a purpose because he had none. And what does he get for all his efforts? To become a part of the other many failed scholars of GOLB.

      @@themarshian5124 I don't think he's the strongest character, GOLB is obviously matched by like 5 entities in the adventure time lore.
      1: The Cosmic Imagination, who created GOLB as It is literally the sentient multiverse according to the Enchiridion, most likely Prismo, and Scarabs "boss."
      2: The Enchiridion, The Book which is not a book, The Enchiridion is actually a nigh-omnipotent omniscient entity that takes the form of a book, and in its own words, it will judge the multiverse at the end of all things.
      3. Coconteppi, The Primordial Monster. Who is the originator of all magic, (which would technically include the Cosmic Imagination, as the cosmic imagination is MADE OF magic.) Coconteppi has magic in its most primal and chaotic state, and can cast any spell it can think of. Some spells in adventure time have union which GOLB is weak too.
      4. The Lich himself, The Lich is stated to be equal to Hunson Abadeer, who considers The Lich his only and equal rival, Hunson is stated to be a primordial monster in the Ooo Encyclopedia (might not be canon, unsaid.) And literally one shot GOLB in the comics, The Lich should be equal to that. And The Lich is a catalyst comet of which scales to Finn, who could defeat The Primordial Elementals, who existed "before all this." according to one of them in the comics. This show literally nerfed The Lich.
      5. The Purple Catalyst comet, The Purple Catalyst comet said it exist "in a new mode of existence," meaning it could merge with The Cosmic Imagination on a whim. The Purple Catalyst comet scales to The Blue Catalyst Comet (Finn) and The Green Catalyst Comet (The Lich.)

The way he so perfectly contrasts against the silly whimsical nature of Adventure Time, it’s usual bright and vibrant kingdoms being replaced by a gritty disheveled corpse of a creature eerily talking down to all he comes across. The way he commands every scene that he’s in, showing himself as a force that just can’t be fucked around with, it’s such a brilliant character that easily stands out from all others.

    It’s genuinely fascinating seeing one of my favorite villains in TV animation in such an emotional state like this. We knew that The Lich wanted to destroy all life in Ooo in the name of Golb, but I don’t think many of us ever truly stopped to think about what would happen if he succeeded in his goal. Unlike regular Lich and Farmworld Lich, this is a version of the Lich who *has* succeeded. He did everything he set out to do for what’s basically his god, and what did this god reward him with, *nothing.* This Lich was left unsatisfied and lost all purpose as a result. After all, why devote your existence to a higher being and even destroy all life in your entire universe in their name when you’ll be given nothing in return. The last we see of him he’s literally yelling to Golb if he did something wrong and if there’s more needed of him, only for Golb to kill him and turn his body into a literal Tetris block. It actually makes you question everything you knew about The Lich up to this point and even makes you feel a bit sympathy for him which you definitely couldn’t say about him in the past. What a great villain. What a great show.

    The fact that Golb didn't even kill the Lich, only the Lich from the universe in which he extinguished all life, shows how powerful the Lich is. The guy has so much power that the embodiment of absolute chaos cannot get rid of him permanently, even while it is severely influenced by Betty's psyche. I imagine that before Betty's psyche merged with Golb, there was nothing Golb would have done to the Lich, he would have let him succeed and fail in his task in a billion worlds and would have never rewarded or tried to stop him.

      No, the Lich who extinguished all life is the original lich that make the wish to end all life in that universe in Prismo's room.
      The Lich who wished for Finn and Jake safely returned to OOO was the one in the alternative universe created by Prismo.

      I feel like the lich will get rid of golbs job of spreading chaos to existing things

      This Lich just made a wish to end all life and that was it, there was no effort or journey just the end result and thus no fulfillment. The one that gets taken to the Citadel had a much better plan in terms of spreading chaos by releasing all the inter-dimisonal criminals to do his bidding. Had The Lich succeeded with this plan he would've likely been more satisfied, and meeting Golb would've gone completely different for him.

    He’s one of those characters that is evil, but we never really questioned what would happen to how he would act if he did win. The Fiona and Cake series nailed it pretty well.

    So Golbetty took this being of pure death and entropy and remade him into a new universe.
    It's poetically ironic. The Lich destroyed life and wanted purpose, and Golbetty gave him the purpose of becoming the genesis of all the life of a new universe. Whether this is redemption or punishment for the Lich is hard to say.

    Looking back to the point where the Lich wishes for the extinction of all life in Prismo's room. If you think about it, the lich never actually accomplishes his goal by wishing for the extinction of all life. All he does is create a separate reality where everyone is dead, meanwhile Ooo prime remains untouched.
    Assuming the lich who made that wish and the one we see in Fionna and cake are the same person. The Lich essentially imprisoned himself without ever realizing it.

This leaves me with the VERY concerning question, of how many followers of Golb managed to succeed in doing their gods bidding, only to be granted that selfsame back-stabbing end. None of them ever knowing about the others, not even in true death. Worse even, since the blocks may yet be undead in eternal unlife. A real serious case of 'I have no mouth and I must scream'.

      yeah but just think that in that universe he committed infanticid instead of mass murder or genocide

    It is truly amazing how the Lich cemented himself as one of the best animated villains of all times and he didn’t need much to do it. Just a bunch of brief moments 0:10, 1:04, 2:26, 3:45, 5:02, 5:28, 5:53, 6:39, 8:41

    Holy hell. I guess that when they put out the blu ray or some sort of high definition release they changed farmworld Lich's line from 'Everywhere you find nothing' to 'Everywhere you will die' and it'd kinda sick.

      I think there's like 3 versions of that scene, on the streaming platform i watched it on he said something along the lines of:
      "Everywhere you will meet oblivion.
      You, your family, everyone will die, at once.
      Ground to nothing, beneath the wheel."

    I like how the Lich first appears as a throwaway baddie Billy's fun little theme song and then went on to be the scariest baddie in the whole series lol

    If you really think about it, lich really never dies I mean yeah sure there is the exceptions of his hand getting stabbed and him getting his face ripped off by Finn but he’s always come back

    My favorite moment from him is when he goes, “fall.” And they do. It’s so cool
