IDW Publishing Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons

Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons is a fun-packed graphic novel that fits perfectly into the show cannon. It may be written Patrick Rothfuss and Jim Zub instead of the show creators but you wouldn't know as they capture the feel of the show perfectly.The book is split into four episodes each of which is stands alone well but still feeds into the overall story. It's also wonderfully illustrated with the cameos from D&D hall of famers a particular highlight for me.You may be wondering if like D&D to enjoy it and to that I'd answer you don't, but it helps. If you're a fan of the show you'll enjoy it regardless but if you're not in to D&D you will miss some references and in jokes.The best thing about Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons is that it feels just like an episode of the show. Funny, irreverent and packed with some superb illustrations and a smattering of D&D banter it's and well worth a look.

To be honest this didn't really do it for me. I've seen enough real world (or sci-fi) characters pulled into a fantasy setting style stories over the years, and this one didn't really bring anything fun or new to the genre. Add in that one of the story elements is "they actually become their characters" and suddenly it's not even the rick and morty cast in a D&D world, but some people who look like them and act and speak differently. Disappointing and not one I'd recommend.

This was a brilliant read, the cross over into the DnD realm was a great twist, working through the different versions was an amazing idea, a nod to Gygax in Ricks original gaming group, up through to 5th edition, Morty asks what happened to 4th and Ricks answer was just brilliant. "We don't talk about 4th". There were so many nods to other D&D characters, including the animated series stuff. I would love to see this one in the next series of the animated show. It would be a great addition and one to add to the collection. Glad I read this, would recommend if you enjoy R&M and D&D.

Bought as a gift for my boyfriend. He said he really enjoyed reading it and like the character sheets that were included

Good quality print, fun story. Patrick Rothfuss writing a Rick and Morty adventure is a geek's idea of heaven, so why bother reading the rewiews, just order it!
