THIS TITLE IS NOT SOME KIND OF ARTFUL METAPHOR, FOLKS! After 10 years and 100+ issues, the beginning of THE END starts here as acclaimed writer Daniel Kibblesmith (Loki) and artistic annihilator Jarrett Williams (Speed Force) prepare to unleash a fantastically fatal finale for RICK AND MORTY!
Rick Sanchez, the most wanted man in this and every other universe, is on the run. With a bounty on his head, every government, military, pirate, mobster, bounty hunter, bail bondsman, religious institution, theater troupe, circus clown, and endangered species is on the hunt to bring in Rick – DEAD OR ALIVE. The only one who can bring Rick in warm is the one person who knows him best: Morty Smith. But Morty’s not the only Smith hot on Rick’s trail . . . "Space Beth" Smith is determined to bring Rick in, and she doesn’t particularly care how. Now it’s just a question of who can get to him first…!
What is in the Rick and Morty first look?
In the first look pages, we see Morty on the hunt for Rick, going to the very edges of the universe, to the planets that only BARELY exist, as they are based on throwaway jokes that don't go much further than "we're all ball fondlers."
Morty arrives at one of these planets looking for information about Rick's location, but after he threatens the inhabitants of the planet, he is suddenly and viciously attacked by some weird other character, who appears to CHOP MORTY'S ARM OFF! Things are looking pretty bleak for Morty by the end of this four-page preview, but if you're familiar at all with Rick and Morty adventures, thing can quickly change on a dime. If you want to see what happens next, you'll have to pick up a copy of Rick and Morty: The End #1, on sale on December 3rd.
Rick and Morty: The End #1 is on final order cutoff this Monday, November 10th, so be sure to tell your local comic book store to order you a copy if you're interested.
