Oni-Lion Forge Publishing Group have collaborated with Warner Bros. Client Merchandise and Grownup Swim to carry us a brand new Rick and Morty comedian miniseries lastly taking over Cthulhu. Rick and Morty vs Cthulhu Half 1: The Whisperer within the Dorkness might be accessible on December 7 and might be reuniting the artistic group from Rick and Morty vs Dungeons and Dragons. Author Jim Zub, illustrator Troy Little, colorist Leonardo Ito, and letterer Crank! will group as much as reply fan questions and speculations about why Cthulhu is in all of the episode’s opening credit and extra not too long ago “Child Cthulhu” within the closing credit. Zub talks about he collection, saying:
Lovecraft horror has caught round for many years as a result of it asks vital questions like ‘Does humanity matter within the face of an unfeeling unknowable universe?’… …Rick and Morty ask equally pertinent questions on ourselves, our existence, and the jerks who create our popular culture, so I figured it was time to peanut butter that chocolate and take a giant chew.
I had by no means thought concerning the similarities between Lovecraftian horror and Rick and Morty, but it surely does make a certain quantity of sense. Right here is the official description of the miniseries:
What could possibly be worse than an off-planet sugar deal gone unsuitable? Tripping by way of a Lovecraftian hellscape with the Smith household as they struggle, uh, cosmic sentient shade and racist fish-people? That may’t be proper…
Welcome to the Rick Sanchez Faculty of Really Getting S**t Accomplished! And that poor bastard Jerry declares “all the pieces smells like cinnamon and sorrow’” on this Lovecraftian epic.
All of it appears like a match made in heaven for Rick and Morty followers. Benefit from the cowl artwork by Little and 5 variant covers by Zander Cannon, Marc Ellerby, Zub, Julieta Colás, and Ryan Lee.
