Abilities
Edit
Grob Gob Glob Grod has various powers and abilities. They have some form of telekinesis as they were shown lifting Jake as the Magic Man off the ground without touching him. They can also levitate, as well as being able to drain Magic Man's powers. Not only are they able to survive and even talk in the vacuum of space, but they are also capable of flying at extremely high speeds, being able to reach Earth from Mars in a matter of minutes. Grod is also said to be a very good drawer.
Appearance
Edit
Grob Gob Glob Grod is a roughly humanoid shaped being. They have four faces, one on each side of their head. The faces can all talk at once. They are also bald due to Magic Man casting a spell on them.[2] Their head appears to be floating and not actually attached to their body. The red, jewel shaped part on their head is not part of their body, but a piece of headgear that conceals the baldness caused by Magic Man. The shape of their eyes vary from having dots for eyes to having fully drawn eyes during close ups. They have a sword that has a white spiky core that emanates a blue aura.
Relationships
Edit
Magic Man
Edit
Grob Gob Glob Grod are the older siblings of Magic Man. They banished Magic Man to Earth 200 years before "Sons of Mars" for several crimes against Martians. In "Sons of Mars," they brought Jake (whom they thought was Magic Man) to Mars for trial. Although they express enmity towards Magic Man, they still respect him as a brother; this is shown when Finn and Jake offer to go after Magic Man and Grob Gob Glob Grod tells them "I don't want to lose my brother."
Abraham Lincoln
Edit
Abraham Lincoln and Grob Gob Glob Grod both lived on Mars (Grob Gob Glob Grod still lives there but Lincoln is deceased). They seemed to be good friends, as Grob Gob Glob Grod are saddened and says that they have lost a friend when Lincoln died after offering Death his immortality in exchange for bringing Jake back to life.
