Rick and Morty: Kingdom Balls - by Josh Trujillo & Ryan Little (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

From the bombastic creative team of writers Josh Trujillo (Blue Beetle, Adventure Time, Rick and Morty: Worlds Apart) and Ryan Little (Marvel Studios' What If...?, I Am Groot) and illustrator Jarrett Williams (Super Pro K.O., Rick and Morty Presents: Maximum Overture) comes a world-hopping ode to dreams, love, and the way of the blade . . .

Morty discovers a distinctive sword from Rick's past--the mysterious Ball Blade--and unwittingly opens a portal into a series of worlds rife with conflict (the English 201 kind). Marooned through the portal, Rick, Morty, and Jerry must navigate the worlds of conflict, discover why Rick's Ball Blade is pulling them toward an enchanting, sultry voice from his past, and protect Rick's deeply held dream from the nefarious Casteratis, who seek power through gathering Dream Balls . . . with only the dwindling order of Ball Bladers standing in their way.

Collects issues #1-4 of the miniseries Rick and Morty: Kingdom Balls.
