The Cartoon Network panel at San Diego Comic-Con was cram-a-zowed with mathematical awesomeness. Back-to-back panels featuring Regular Show & Uncle Grandpa followed by Adventure Time & Steven Universe were hosted by Bobby Moynihan (Saturday Night Live), the voice of Panda on We Bare Bears.
The Adventure Time/Steven Universe panel featured Jeremy Shada (Finn), John DiMaggio (Jake), Tom Kenny (Ice King), Olivia Olson (Marceline), and Adam Muto (Co-Executive Producer) along with the Steven Universe gems Rebecca Sugar (Creator), Zach Callison (Voice of Steven), Estelle (Voice of Garnet), and Ian Jones-Quartey (Supervising Director). They weren’t stingy with the clips — several Adventure Time episodes were shown and a clip of a new Fusion (Garnet and Pearl!) Fans were also treated to a clip from the upcoming Adventure Time episode “Bad Jubies,” which will be the first episode entirely in stop-motion. Also, Rebecca sang.
The Regular Show/Uncle Grandpa panel featured JG Quintel (Creator, Voice of Mordecai), William Salyers (Voice of Rigby), Sean Szeles (Supervising Producer), and Sam Marin (Voice of Benson, Pops, Muscle Man), alongside Uncle Grandpa’s Pete Browngardt (Creator, Voice of Uncle Grandpa), Eric Bauza (Voice of Bellybag), and Kevin Michael Richardson (Voice of Mr. Gus).
Quintel revealed the true ages of Mordecai and Rigby (they are 23), confirmed which era the show takes place in (it’s intentionally vague), and revealed what was up with Thomas revealing himself to be a spy. He said that episode was in response to fans complaining that there didn’t seem to be a point to Thomas, which sparked a discussion in the writers’ room that maybe he was more than he seemed. At the end, fans were treated to a trailer for the Regular Show movie, which is still a thing.
Con-goers were also among the first to see We Bare Bears, Cartoon Network’s newest series that will debut on July 27. No one got to see an entire episode, but they were treated to a behind-the-scenes video and the debut of the theme sequence (which is sung by Estelle, voice of Garnet).
