You’re not ready! We’re not ready! The Rick and Morty omniverse better get ready for RICK AND MORTY: FINALS WEEK. The double-sized, 40-page opening salvo, RICK AND MORTY: FINALS WEEK – SHERICK HOLMES AND MORTSON #1, from multiple Emmy Award-nominated writer nominee Daniel Kibblesmith (Loki) and artist Priscilla Tramontano (Transformers) – is the first shot in a universe-colliding escapade spanning (almost) all of 2024 Get ready for the first of FIVE interconnected and oversized one-shots released bi-monthly from a rotating lineup of cosmic superstars including fan-favorite Rick and Morty alums, brand-new talents, and enough curveballs to keep linear space-time from ever returning to the same fixed point. (Because: science!)
Featuring dynamically dynamite covers by Priscilla Tamontano, Phil Murphy – plus the first of five, magnificently interlocking incentive variants by Marc Ellerby, RICK AND MORTY: FINALS WEEK – SHERICK HOLMES AND MORTSON #1 is going to start Monday off the wrong way as the whole of the Rick and Morty omniverse builds towards an inescapable event horizon . . .
The worst week of Morty’s life starts right . . . NOW! It’s Monday, and Finals Week is off to a terrible start. Morty needs a little time off from adventuring in order to study . . . until Rick announces it’s time for them to team up like that other great literary duo: Sherlock Holmes and Watson. Transported to a locked-room murder mystery in space, Morty suspects Rick isn’t looking to spend time with his Watson, but rather find his own Moriarty . . .
And that’s only Monday… Across 2024, watch in glee as Morty – and his test scores – suffer during FINALS WEEK! Each day adds to the chaos, building toward an inevitable turning point for this dimension’s greatest uncle-nephew science-fiction action duo that no one will see coming – especially them! Prepare for a new (and satisfyingly hefty!) 40-page installment of FINALS WEEK to arrive in stores every other month from Oni Press in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products and Adult Swim. It lays the groundwork for a cosmic debacle that will forever shake up the lives of Rick, Morty, and a literal cast of gazillions:
