In this action-packed issue drawn by guest artist (and former series colorist) Katy Farina, Rick and Morty get arrested for smuggling and are being sent to the worst penal colony in the universe. Can they escape this space paddy wagon before they get locked up forever? Will there be additional shenanigans? You know there will be!
Plus: another interconnected backup story by Josh Trujillo and Rii Abrego!
LET THE RICK ONE IN: PART I. In this two-part spooky special, Rick and Morty face the hideous hordes of the sexy undead—VAMPIRES! Featuring the goth co-writing styles of Tini Howard ( Assassinistas, Rick and Morty: Pocket Like You Stole It )!
Here we go vampire-ing again! Summer’s still being held captive by the Draculas (who are actually sort of smitten with her) and our hallowed heroes are storming the castle-literally! It’s a drag-out, fang-out, stake-out, blood-soaked rescue story. So many Draculas! So many scary windows! So many vampire fights! Rick’s drunk! Morty’s useless! Beth is trying! Jerry is a you know what! It’s the second part of the dynamic LET THE RICK ONE IN vampire-y two parter, co-written by TINI HOWARD (Rick and Morty: Pocket Like You Stole It)! It’s awesome!
We got the best two issues of Rick and Morty comics heading your way bro.
and for the first time he feels really guilty and tries to drink it down
like this time he knew he really fucked up
and showing concern for morty when hes on crutches.
and when morty gets injured again and snaps his leg its rick carrying him to the hospital again in his arms. just imagine Rick seeing Morty break his leg in the garage, rush to his aid, pick him up and just hurrying as fast as he can to the hospital. I know this is dimension C-132 but C-137 & C-132 Rick and very very similar. Remember when C-137 Mory broke his legs and Rick couldn’t give two shits? He just casually walked through a portal to get a serum to heal Morty’s legs. But no, this time Rick was so caught up in his guilt from the arm and leg accident from the ship he couldn’t think straight. He just grabbed Morty and brought him to the hospital instead in a worry.
And see here? This time he’s not drowning out his guilt and drinking from his flask. It actually hurts my heart.
Rick feels guilt about the entire situation and this is proof he genuinely cares for Morty.
I love how much of a deep dive this tumblr goes into our little comic series and picks out all the tiny details we slave over <3 <3 <3
Some of the recent Rick and Morty sketch covers I’ve drawn.
I will be at Thought Bubble this weekend in Leeds! Find me at Table 10 in the Comixology Marquee, I’ll be sharing with John Allison so don’t get us confused okay.
It’s a big year for Thought Bubble, the con now takes place in the middle of the city centre and I think this is a positive move towards getting more people going to it. The old site was fine, if your definition of “fine” is a venue so out of the way it was a half hour walk away from anywhere. Also hooray for it not taking place in rain drenched November.
I don’t have that much stock with me, but here’s what I’m taking.
Ellerbisms graphic novel.
Rick and Morty graphic novels volumes 1-5
Rick and Morty Pocket Like You Stole It singles #1-3
Rick and Morty #24.
AND THAT’S IT. Oh I’m also doing sketch cover drawings this weekend. £50 for a single Rick and Morty character or £70 for 2, all in full colour. Here’s a recent one I did.
I’m also doing Chloe Noonan drawings (remember her?) on a Noonan sketch cover for half the price.
Note: I’ll provide the sketch covers, don’t trip dawg.
I hope to see you there! Thought Bubble is the best UK convention I attend, it’s firmly about comics and not y’now stuff like Funko Pops.
Rick and Morty: Pocket Like You Stole It #3
Hey our third issue is out now from Oni Press! This issue kinda broke me a little a lot, I’ve mentioned my love for Jerry a bunch and there are hundreds of him in this issue, which normally would fill me with joy, but not when I’m drawing them over and over again. Wrist-pain aside it was a good issue to draw, Tini’s script has some good zings and Katy’s colours continue to be the best thing about this series, what a master of the craft she is.
I’ll be at Thought Bubble in Leeds this weekend. Maybe see you there?
