In SummaryMarceline and the Scream Queens isn't going to be a big adventure story like Finn and Jake would have. Though I can see some real excitement working its way in here, this first volume sets up Gran's story as more of a character study — which, as far as I'm concerned, is one of the best types of stories, especially when you're dealing with popular characters that fans are always hungry to learn more about. With their differing personalities (Bubblegum's responsibility and need for order and Marceline's carefree attitude) it's obvious that some sort of personal conflict will come up. I don't know how much added character development is being planned for a side series, but even if neither of them have significant growth it will be a real trip seeing Gran's view of PB and Marcie.
