It’s ‘Rick & Morty Vs. The Universe’ In Oni’s First Ever Comic Book Event

RICK & MORTY VS. THE UNIVERSE #1 crop

Are Rick and Morty about to enter a multiverse of Rick-ness? Seems so, as Oni Press has announced the first crossover event in Rick and Morty comics history with Rick & Morty vs. The Universe.

Written by Daniel Kibblesmith with art by Jarrett Williams, the seven-part series will roll out over a four-part miniseries and three REDACTED tie-ins. I remember reading REDACTED when I was a kid and loving it, so I’m so REDACTED excited to see how REDACTED handles REDACTED.

“I’ve been a huge Rick and Morty fan since I watched them bury their own bodies over ten years ago,” said Kibblesmith via a press release provided to Comic Book Club, “and have continued to follow their ups and downs, and downs, and more downs, and then up again, and now way, way down. It is a profound honor to force them through an adventure more cosmic and stressful than anything that they have faced before. ‘Who will survive and what will be left of them?'”

Here’s the synopsis for the event:

Rick’s old buddy Dimension C-137 (where Rick and Morty Cronenberg’d Earth) has reached his UNIVERSAL HALF-LIFE and is getting MARRIED—to the female-presenting embodiment of the Parmesan Dimension! He’s found true love and wants his old pal Rick to plan his bachelor party! WHAT COULD GO WRONG? Answer: Pretty much everything . . . and it is all Rick’s fault! Now Rick and Morty are on the run from EVERY SINGLE UNIVERSE THEY’VE EVER MESSED WITH—meaning, no matter what dimension they escape to, the universe will literally be against them. And, to survive, Rick will be forced to do something he hoped he would never have to do—a last resort of EPIC PROPORTIONS!
