REVIEWS

STEPHEN
RICK & MORTY VS DUNGEONS & DRAGONS #3
Writer: Patrick Rothfuss, Jim Zub
Artist: Troy Little
Publisher: Oni Press/IDW Publishing
Cover Price: $4.99
Release Date: December 5, 2018
A dimension where the Dungeons & Dragons paradigms are real. The rules are absolute... or, at least, they were... until Rick and Morty make their mark. Get ready to plead the fifth (edition) in this unlawful, chaotically evil story of family friction and fantasy frolics.

The world's greatest roleplaying game.
Reality's most dysfunctional animated series.
What could go wrong?
[rating:4/5]
