🛸 ABOUT THE SERIES

Rick and Morty is a comic-book franchise based on the animated science-fiction comedy created by Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland.

Beginning in 2015, Oni Press expanded the animated universe through original adventures featuring Rick Sanchez, an extraordinarily intelligent and dangerously irresponsible scientist, and his anxious grandson Morty Smith.

Armed with portal technology and an almost unlimited disregard for consequences, the pair travel between alternate realities, encounter alien civilizations, confront cosmic entities, and repeatedly endanger themselves and their family.

The comics combine absurdist comedy, nihilistic philosophy, scientific speculation, metafiction, and occasional cosmic horror.

The franchise includes the original ongoing series, independent miniseries, character-focused specials, a later twelve-issue relaunch, and a large concluding crossover event.

Because the stories frequently involve alternate realities and different versions of the central characters, not every publication belongs to one strictly linear narrative.
