Rick and Morty: The End #5

The penultimate chapter of Rick and Morty: The End arrives with issue #5, and Dave Bardin's cover sets an appropriately chaotic tone — a wide-eyed, clearly panicked Morty grips a sci-fi pistol while a grotesque alien creature lurks behind him, and the silhouetted figure of Rick looms in the foreground, clawed hand reaching toward the scene. Writer Daniel Kibblesmith and artist Jarrett Williams, with colors by Alessandro Santoro, bring their vision of the end to its breaking point with "Twelve Maybe-Ricks!" — a title that suggests the multiverse still has a few surprises left. If the cover's atmosphere of dread and barely-contained chaos is any indication, this 2026 Oni Press series is going out with real dramatic energy.
