Solid volume with some real laugh out loud moments, although the final section, Stories in the Public Domain, was somewhat lackluster.

I don't know if I was just in the wrong mood while reading this or if it really wasn't that good, but this is the first volume of the main series that I haven't liked that much. Usually I feel like the comics do a good job of bringing the mood of the show and even the characters' speech patterns to the page but this one just felt off and I didn't really find myself laughing much either.

Just biding my time until the next animated season, reading through all the Rick and Morty comics that my local library has.
This one is a bit different from other volumes in that it actually continues some storylines from previous volumes, bringing back some side characters who all want revenge on Rick and Morty. It's still a bit meh, but at least they're trying something.

Review is for volumes 6-12 of the main series.
The art gets more inconsistent, an overreliance on retreaded side characters feels more lazy than it does a response to popular demand, and the laughs dwindle to a precious few. per issue.

Well this volume started off strong. I mean really strong. The first two issues, Rick Revenge Squad, are a solid 5 out of 5, but things dropped off pretty fast. The Dick & Farty issue was fine and had some good twists, the Vindicators Origin and the Cronenberg sequel felt like just fanboy fan fictions. But the Public Domain Adventures were the most disappointing, this could have been filled full with little gems, but instead it was mostly uninspired cliches. Still, the strength of the first two-part story was worth the read.

Fun, lots of call backs to previous issues and also the show since we get the first team up with the Vindicators. I was disappointed in the adventures in the public domain, there were a ton of characters they could have included and the story was a big nothing.

Keeping me going as we wait for new episodes!

Loved the continuation of the Party Dog storyline. Dick and Farty was good. Enjoyed Vindicators 1 and the Cronenburg story was alright. The public domain shorts at the end fell a little flat.

I miss watching this show... Definitely going to rewatch this show soon.
4 Stories here:
1. Rick's Revenge Squad - A host of previous comics-only villains come back together and try to kill Rick. Of course they were brought here by Jerry... LOL
2. Dick and Farty - A laid back version of Rick (called Dick) and a raccoon-based Morty (called Farty) take over at the house while Rick and Morty were trapped in a Bathorvian Penis Prison. So many laughs in this one.
3. Vindicators 1 - AT LAST!! The story we didn't get to see on the show is represented here. Still against Worldender... and still with Vance Maximus, Supernova, Million Ants, Alan Rails, Croc-U-Bot, and Noob Noob... but also (at a very comical moment) we meet Diablo Verde, Calypso, and Lady Katana, looking like some kind of Suicide Squad rejects. LOL Well worth the wait.
4. Look Who's Cronenberging Now - Another story involving the Cronenberg versions of the cast. I wish I fully understood the appeal of the stories... but they are always funny and entertaining.
Overall, I missed these guys. Can't wait to move directly onto Volume 10.
Strong recommend.

Und wieder ein neues Abenteuer von Rick & Morty ! Ich muss ja gestehen das ich in die Spezial Editionen verliebt bin. Aber auch diese "normalen" Ausgaben gefallen mir sehr.
Superhelden und Superschurken? Natürlich gibt es das alles auch bei Rick und Morty. Und auch hier erlebt man wieder ein tolles Abenteuer voller witziger Dialoge ala Rick and Morty!
Diese Ausgabe konnte mich nicht so 100% überzeugen, hatte aber einige Lacher für mich parat. Ich mag den Humor einfach und die Zeichnungen. Ich muss auch gestehen das mir hier wieder die Bonus - Kurzgeschichten am Ende ("Abenteuer im Public Domain) sehr gut oder sogar am besten gefallen haben. Obwohl die Zeichnungen hier nicht so "schön" sind gefallen sie mir, sie haben sowas richtig Comic mässiges.

Wonderful addition to the Rick and Morty Canon.
Capturing the wit and ridiculousness of the show perfectly. Adding layers to the already rich world including finding out what happened in Vindicators part 1.
We are also treated to Mr Poopybutthole breaking the 4th wall in a manner you would expect from Deadpool.
It says a lot about the quality of the writers of these stories that each one could easily have been translated to the screen in the show itself.

I appreciate how this volume of the series started in a rather self-aware manner with blatant references to previous issues and volumes because of course, it had to go there. That's totally in theme with how the show dissects popular TV and movie genres.
In this case, we have a classic comic book attempt of past enemies coming together to see if they can deal with our Rick once and for all. The action is great and the story twists totally make sense. The other issues in this volume are pretty solid adventures on their own but don't necessarily build up to a bigger story. But we do get an effect to fill in the gaps of the show like now we finally have a story for Vindicators 1. LOL

It was entertaining. Vindicators 1, a Cronenburg adventure, a portal fight with an alternate Rick, and a squad of enemies out for Rick-Vengeance (including a cool Me-Seeks character).
3.5 Stars

Never a bad day with a Rick and Morty comic

Excellent comic series to help you get through the wait for season 4. The read is just as funny as the view. Check it out.

More mayhem from this dynamic duo. Lots of fun, though the last stories in the book kind of went nowhere.

The public domain comics were so funny!

Average
It offers some new adventures as well as more context to old ones. However, none of the stories were very good. It's an average Rick and Morty comic.

Dick and Faaarty! I love the Rick and Morty series and the comics

Forgetable, bland, saddening. The same thing that ruined RaM is what keeps this comic from being a disappointment: trying so hard to be funny.
