In anticipation of Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1 – Get in the Robot, Morty! (available everywhere on November 1st), Oni Press has released a Rick and Morty Manga Super Secret Sneak Preview to comic shops across North America! In the coming weeks, shops can expect to receive a pack of 20 preview comics to share at their store with fans eager to dive into Rick and Morty’s first multiversal manga thrill ride!
In Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1 – Get in the Robot, Morty!, pop culture’s beloved dimension-hopping duo face a foe unlike any they’ve seen before. Well, it’s basically Jerry, but he’s huge, fast, vicious, and . . . naked? Rick has the perfect solution: a giant mech fighting robot, perfectly designed and calibrated to take on the Jiant horde—but it needs a puny, socially isolated, 14-year-old pilot. Oh, we’ve got one!
Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1: Get in the Robot, Morty! is the first in a new series of manga-styled Rick and Morty adventures and essential reading for longtime readers and manga mega-fans alike. Each Rick and Morty Manga Super Sneak Preview comic features 16 pages of the manga-inspired gauntlet of action and absurdity from writer Alissa M. Sallah (Weeaboo) and artist JeyOdin (Hammer, Miles Away) as the beloved genre of mecha-fighting manga gets a dose of Rick and Morty’s characteristic sardonic flair. Retailers can get a feel for Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1’s trim size as both the Super Sneak Preview and the final book will be a manga-sized 5.28 x 7.5”, making the final book easy to shelve alongside other manga favorites.
