Rick and Morty Presents: The Science of Summer #1

In Rick and Morty Presents: The Science of Summer #1, Summer stumbles into a bizarre dimension on Phlegumbork, where social media has completely replaced society and a charismatic podcaster named Skub dominates the populace through endless feeds. With help from a rival influencer version of herself—@nextsummer—Summer must fight back in the most unexpected way: by out-influencing Skub in a high-stakes battle for digital supremacy. Written by Magdalene Visaggio and brought to life with bold, expressive art by Marc Ellerby, this vibrant story captures the absurdity and urgency of online fame. The cover, by Gina Allnatt, perfectly encapsulates the chaotic energy of the issue.
