It’s a Contested Convention this August with Rick and Morty

Posted on by

EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT RICK AND MORTY IS ABOUT TO CHANGE FOREVER! The fourth installment of five, interconnected and oversized bi-monthly specials leading up to the most important, unmissable event in Rick and Morty comics history starts here on August 14th in Rick and Morty Finals Week: Contested Convention #1 – from writers James Asmus and Jim Festante and illustrator Suzi Blake! Another day down, another final to (hopefully not) flunk – Morty’s academic reckoning of the wills is about to get wrung through the Omniverse!

As Morty’s poli-sci exam approaches, he persuades Rick to portal him to President Curtis for some much-needed extra credit. With Curtis on his way to secure his party’s presidential nomination, and Rick determined to prove even the dumbest version of him could beat Curtis, Doofus Rick’s hat is thrown in the ring! Competition heats up when Doofus announces Jerry as his VP, and Beth joins the race to become the first female president. It’s gonna be one contested convention!

Featuring covers from an all-star cast of cosmic talents Suzi Blake, Sam Grinberg, and Marc Ellerby, the bell is about to ring for Rick and Morty Finals Week: Contested Convention #1, coming August 14th!

The Road to the Biggest Rick and Morty Event EVER Starts with Rick and Morty: Finals Week – Five Interconnected Specials Beginning in February!

The road to the biggest Rick & Morty event the Omniverse has ever seen begins with Rick and Morty: Finals Week – SheRick Holmes and Mortson #1 by multiple Emmy Award nominee Daniel Kibblesmith and fan-favorite artist Priscilla Tramontano — the first of five interconnected, oversized and bi-monthly one-shots from an all-star cast of cosmic talents past, present, and future! Featuring covers by Priscilla Tamontano and Phil Murphy, as well as the first of five interlocking incentive covers by Marc Ellerby, FINALS WEEK’s first ginormous, 40-page epic – on sale February 21, 2024 – launches with a time-traveling misadventure that will reverberate across the entire Rick and Morty publishing line for years to come!

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 as each day of FINALS WEEK builds toward an inescapable turning point for the Rick and Morty omniverse! Across 2024, get ready for a new (and satisfyingly hefty!) 40-page installment of FINALS WEEK to land on stores shelves every other month as Oni Press lays the groundwork for a major cosmic crucible for Rick, Morty, and a literal cast of gazillions in the year ahead:
