Written by Alissa M. Sallah (Weeaboo) and illustrated by JeyOdin (Hammer, Miles Away), the manga sees Rick and Morty facing off against a new threat: Giant Jerries, or Jiants as they are called. These mindless, gigantic, and naked creatures are reminiscent of the Titans from “Attack on Titan” by Hajime Isayama.
To combat this colossal crisis, Rick creates a robot for Morty to pilot. The design of Morty’s robot draws inspiration from iconic franchises such as “Neon Genesis Evangelion” and “Mobile Suit Gundam”. With a slender design and a giant sword, Morty’s machine is ready to take on the Jiants.
What sets this manga apart is its love for manga and anime as a whole. The creators have filled it with Easter Eggs and references to various iconic franchises. It is a perfect blend of parody and respect for the medium, just like the Rick and Morty comics have done with pop culture references in the past.
Fans of the series will appreciate the attention to detail and the unique spin on manga. The creators have managed to capture the essence of what makes manga so popular, from the giant robots to the classic humor. This manga adventure is shaping up to be a classic addition to the franchise.
Rick and Morty’s dive into the world of manga is an exciting new chapter for the beloved characters. With its references and nods to iconic franchises, it is a love letter to manga fans. The upcoming release of “Rick & Morty: The Manga Vol. 1 – Get in the Robot, Morty!” is highly anticipated, and fans won’t want to miss out on this unique and hilarious adventure.
