Rick and Morty: Oni Press Announces Manga ; New Home Release


Get all 61 episodes and a new poster that showcase a version of Rick and Morty we may never see again. Keep hold of the classic seasons that feature the show’s creator Justin Roiland who is not expected to be a part of the show’s seventh season which is slated to premiere Fall 2023.


Oni Press — in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products and Adult Swim — is releasing a new preview from their upcoming Rick and Morty graphic novel, Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1 – Get in the Robot, Morty!, arriving in stores on November 1. Spawned from the ‘anime-addled minds’ of writer Alissa M. Sallah (Weeaboo) and artist JeyOdin (Hammer, Miles Away), 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 … if they can handle the multiversal thrill ride.

Continuing Oni’s long-running series of comic-book adventures for pop culture’s beloved dimension-hopping duo, this manga-inspired gauntlet of action and absurdity will see Rick and Morty 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! Summer, Morty, and his charming new friend Rowan navigate this violent post-apocalyptic world, where they still have to go to high school and Rick seems oddly invested in upgrading the mech with stylish new features.

Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1 – Get in the Robot, Morty! will be available in paperback at comic-book shops and booksellers everywhere on November 1.
