Join the Resistance in Rick and Morty Riot: Youth in Rickvolt

Posted on by

Let’s go! The most rebellious Rick and Morty epic ever attempted starts on August 21st in Rick and Morty Riot: Youth in Rickvolt #1! From acclaimed writer Michael Moreci and up-and-coming illustrator, Tony Gregori comes a revolutionary new Rick and Morty comic series about rebellion, adolescence, freedom – and, of course, undermining the status quo no matter what dimension you find yourself in!

Rick’s been cagey lately—especially cagey. And secretive. After yet another misadventure with Morty goes haywire, Morty begins to pull away from his grandfather. So, Rick does what any healthy, mentally stable grandparent would do: he secretly creates a universe with new grandchildren who actually love him! Only problem is that universe has now reached adolescence and is rebelling, threatening the entire universe. This uprising, led by a fierce, glass-eyed Morty and his army of revolutionaries, aims to fight and kill the very god that created it: Rick.

Featuring a line-up of coup d’état–tastic covers from the respectable regime of artists Tony Gregori, Sarah Burrini, and Warren Wucinich – get ready to overthrow all things Rick and salute the flag to a brand new Morty when Rick and Morty Riot: Youth in Rickvolt #1 arrives August 21st!

Bad Idea Mega-Sizes their Comics with B-Side Stories

Posted on by

Bad Idea is delivering another good idea for their upcoming releases. The publisher isn’t releasing their comics digitally or in trades, instead, they’ll be oversized single issues packed with stories. And they’re packing those issues with brand-new, never-before-seen “B-Side” stories. These are short-form, self-contained comics. Each issue Bad Idea publishes will have an oversized, ad-free page count that will always feature a new “B-Side” tale. 

Every month, that “B-Side” will feature a standalone, done-in-one dose of high potency comics storytelling unlike anything we’ve published before — new genres, new characters, new concepts.

The first “B-Side” launches in ENIAC #1 in March, the new comic from Matt Kindt, Tomas Giorello, and Diego Rodriguez. The comic will be 48 pages in a prestige format for $3.99.

Future “B-Sides” will feature all-new contributions from creators like Karl Bollers, Sarah Burrini, Mae Catt, Khari Evans, Melissa Flores, Klaus Janson, David Lapham, Peter Milligan, Alex Paknadel, Eliot Rahal, Sean Ryan, Robert Venditti, and many, many more. 

Here’s just a few of the Bad Idea “B-Sides” coming soon to a comic book near you:
