Rick and Morty’s Maniacal Manga Comic Book Manifestation Returns in Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2: After-School Science Club

WILL MORTY’S MANGA-INSPIRED MACHINATIONS LEAD TO ROMANCE OR MAKE TROUBLE FOR THE MULTIVERSE? In their first manga comic book appearance, Rick and Morty went toe to toe with a giant naked Jerry. Now, they’re ready for an even greater challenge: high school romance and after-school activities! Oni Press in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, is proud to share a madness-inducing first look at Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2: After-School Science Club! From two of the hottest creators in the American manga scene, writer Josh Tierney and artist JeyOdin comes a story of teen love, school pride, and extracurricular international warfare!

When Morty falls in love at first sight with the new exchange student from Japan—Chigusa—and she shows him her favorite manga about after-school clubs, he knows just the advisor for his hastily constructed new Science Club: Rick Sanchez. With his ragtag group of teen losers (plus Chigusa) and a cursory knowledge of Japanese school clubs he picked up from skimming Morty’s manga, Rick leads the club in a competition against the preexisting, sanctioned, totally normal Science Club, creating a portal to Akihabara, nexus of anime and manga culture, and famous home of Tokyo’s maid cafés. Brimming with inspiration from their trip (and chased out of the country by the maids who have turned on Rick) the Science Club prepares for their school festival with a maid café of their own making—a science maid café selling questionable concoctions.

Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2: After-School Science Club is due out on February 24.
