Comics Review: Rick and Morty #16

Do you even lift, brah?

Spoilers Below

When Morty wants to do some real good, Rick takes him to a planet where it rains baby seals. Unfortunately, Morty has to use a shovel and club these poor bastards so that Rick and secrete a chemical that cures everything. While on the planet, we meet Peacock Jones and his cohort Barbarica, both of whom become useful when the group is attacked by Robodudes. Fortunately, everyone gets away, but there’s more story in issue #18 so we’ll have to see what Morty does with his new found seal juice then.

In, “Don’t Look A Gift-Horse in the Rick”, Morty takes a back seat and Beth joins Rick on a planet that is being invaded by horse warriors. A shoot out ensues, or does it?

Our Take

This month, the producers of Rick and Morty comics did a solid job of introducing new characters. Peacock Jones was OK, but Barbarica was awesome! I hope we see her again and club more seals. And then the humanoid horses in the finale battle are great for those whom have always wanted to see BoJack Horseman crossed with Dog, the Bounty Hunter.
