Rick and Morty Compendium #1

In "Insider Trading Outside the Timeline," Rick turns Morty’s mundane job hunt into a wild gamble, using a timeline merger to manipulate stock markets—only to land himself and Morty in trouble with the Time Police. Detective Tock and his team aren’t amused by their meddling, and now Rick must explain how a little interdimensional stock picking went so spectacularly wrong.

In "E.T. Clone Home," a clumsy mishap during Jerry’s golf game unleashes a bizarre, insectoid alien that spawns twisted clones of Morty and Beth, plunging Summer into a chaotic fight for survival. When Rick finally escapes the Clackspire Labyrinth and arrives in a blaze of sci-fi fury, the battle escalates—leaving Summer stunned as the dust settles and Jerry returns, whistling a cheerful tune, unaware of the carnage he’s just walked into.

In "Adventure to an Alternate Universe!" from Rick and Morty Compendium #1, Rick and Morty swap roles in a world where Rick is the anxious sidekick and Morty the reckless scientist—leading to chaos, cringe, and a desperate wish they’d stayed home. The story’s sharp humor and clever twist shine through in just four pages, delivering a self-aware, fast-paced dive into what happens when the power dynamic flips.

In "You Say You Want a Rick-volution!", Rick’s alien-run farm becomes the unlikely stage for a rebellion, leaving Morty caught between loyalty and conscience. As tensions rise among the alien workers, Morty must navigate the chaos of a system he’s never questioned—before it’s too late.

In "A Nightmare on Rick Street," Morty wakes up trapped in a bizarre summer camp that feels too real to be a dream—except the campers are all Earthlings whose dreams are being siphoned by alien scavengers. With Rick skeptical and Scary Terry more interested in scaring than solving, the line between nightmare and reality blurs as Morty fights to stay awake long enough to figure out what’s really happening.

In "Introducing... Beth and the Beths!", Beth takes a wild detour from Jerry’s mundane world using Rick’s portal gun, landing in a chaotic, high-octane reality where every member of her punk rock band is a clone of herself—each louder, bolder, and more gloriously absurd than the last. The story crackles with humor and heart, exploring identity and rebellion through a lens of science fiction fun.

When every other Rick across the multiverse begins vanishing one by one, Rick C-137 and Morty make a desperate escape to Universe 304-X—the one dimension where no Rick has ever existed. With Morty clinging to his grandfather’s side, they plunge into a reality both alien and eerily empty, where the rules of science and sanity are still unwritten.

In "Dream a Little Dream of Me," Morty finds himself tangled in a surreal romantic moment with Jessica—only for Scary Terry to crash the dream with his signature menace. But as nightmares twist and reality blurs, the question lingers: whose dream is this, and who’s really in control?

In "A Very Special Blumbus," Rick and Morty spend Christmas in a twisted alternate dimension where the holiday is called Blumbus and every festive tradition is a grotesque parody of our own. While Rick sinks into a melancholy haze at a grim, neon-lit bar, Morty finds himself drawn into a bizarre family ritual he doesn’t fully understand—though the stakes may be far more dangerous than he realizes.

Jerry swaps a family dinner for a Day of Fun with Doofus Rick, trading judgment for chaos in a four-week ritual that’s equal parts escape and unexpected connection. With no rules but the thrill of the absurd, their wild outing is a rare moment of genuine, if bizarre, father-son bonding.
