First Look: Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2 Goes Back to School

rick-and-mortyRick and Morty’s manga incarnation is returning with Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2: After-School Science Club, the latest collaboration between Oni Press and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products. Following the characters’ first manga outing, the new volume shifts its focus to high school life, after-school clubs, and the unexpected chaos of teenage romance.

Written by Josh Tierney and illustrated by JeyOdin, the story kicks off when Morty falls for a Japanese exchange student and ropes Rick into advising a hastily formed Science Club. What begins as a school rivalry quickly escalates into interdimensional mayhem, including a trip to Akihabara and a deeply questionable student-run maid café experiment.

The second volume leans fully into manga tropes while keeping the show’s signature absurdism intact, blending slice-of-life humor with sci-fi escalation. After-School Science Club continues the Rick and Morty manga line with a self-contained story that plays fast and loose with both school rules and the multiverse.
