GOLB

GOLB
Name	GOLB
Age	Unknown
Species	Deity
Introduced in	"Puhoy"
Latest appearance	"Whispers" (mentioned)

GOLB is a malevolent entity who inhabits an unknown dimension.

He is first seen briefly at the end of "Puhoy." After old Finn dies in the Pillow World and is being warped back to his own reality, he bounces off GOLB's tongue.

He is mentioned later in "You Forgot Your Floaties". While inside Magic Man's mind, Betty witnesses a memory of him and Grob Gob Glob Grod discussing GOLB at an unknown date in the past. It is revealed that GOLB attacked Mars at some point and "took" Magic Man's wife, Margles. Grob Gob Glob Grod believes that GOLB will return and Magic Man agrees, using the threat of GOLB as a pretext for building a security system on Mars that takes the shape of Margles. Later, Magic Man changes his mind, claiming that Grob Gob Glob Grod is wrong and GOLB is "probably not coming back."

The Lich calls himself the "last scholar of GOLB" in "Whispers."

Appearance

GOLB has a massive, muscular red body and a cubic head topped with a pyramid. He has four round yellow eyes with green pupils, with the two eyes on top slightly larger than the two below. He has a forked tongue that is large and purple. His hands have two fingers and his feet have two toes. He has orange-yellow talons on his fingers and toes.

Abilities

After GOLB "took" Margles, Magic Man traveled to Prismo's Time Room and wished that she would return but Prismo was unable to successfully bring her back. This shows that GOLB has powers greater than those of a Wish Master.
