☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection brings together the complete four-issue miniseries from 2023, pitting the dysfunctional duo of Rick and Morty against the cosmic horrors of H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Written by Jim Zub with art by Troy Little, the story sends the Smith family on a chaotic adventure where Rick's scientific arrogance clashes with ancient, mind-shattering entities. The volume includes the main story along with variant cover gallery and bonus material.
In "Rick and Morty vs. Cthulhu Part I: The Whisperer in the Dorkness," Morty finds himself under the care of Father Dagon, while Summer rises as champion of Nyarlathotep—each sibling now locked in a proxy battle for their god’s favor. With Beth consumed by Cthulhu and Jerry torn apart by the Hounds of Tindalos, Rick finally snaps and confronts the cosmic horror head-on. Written by Jim Zub and brought to life with bold, eerie art by Troy Little—both inks and cover—this high-stakes crossover delivers a mind-bending twist that reshapes the invasion’s true purpose, setting up two surprising epilogues.
When Rick’s scan of the Smith house uncovers a creeping infestation of Mythos Molecules from the Lovecraft Dimension, he rallies the family for a bizarre, high-stakes mission: hunt down Cthulhu before the cosmos collapses. Armed with a blunderbuss that devours eldritch horrors and turns them to dust, Rick, Morty, and Summer take on the Color Out of Space and the ghastly Wilbur Whateley—only to find that Innsmouth holds something far worse.
In the shadowed streets of Innsmouth, Rick’s fate hangs in the balance as Barnabas Marsh forces him to choose between life and death—only to be replaced by a far stranger destiny. Trapped in separate cells, Morty and Summer must navigate their own terrifying trials: Summer learns to meditate her way into the Dreamlands with the help of a grizzled old drunk, while Morty finds an unexpected ally in a mysterious girl named Cathy, both marked for sacrifice to the god Dagon. When the ritual takes a shocking turn, Morty is claimed in a way no one could have predicted—leaving the fate of the family, and the city, hanging in the abyss.
In "Rick and Morty vs. Cthulhu Part III: Yith We Can," Rick’s consciousness now trapped in the body of a Yith, must navigate alien minds and forbidden science alongside his unlikely ally, Yith-Huey, as they plot a desperate escape from the depths of time and terror. With the Cosmic Terror unleashed and their bond tested, Rick races to reclaim his body—only to return home and find Beth under Cthulhu’s grip.
In a reality twisted by cosmic horror, Morty finds unexpected family with Father Dagon, while Summer rises as Nyarlathotep’s champion—each sibling locked in a deadly proxy war. With Beth now a vessel for Cthulhu and Jerry consumed by the Hounds of Tindalos, Rick finally snaps and launches a direct assault on the eldritch force behind it all. The confrontation unravels a shocking truth, leading to two surprising epilogues that reframe everything.
