Well, in the world of fanfiction, people can take characters in all sorts of directions. But in the context of 'Rick and Morty', the idea of Rick abusing Morty in the fanfiction is a deviation from the show. The show focuses on their interdependent relationship, with Rick being the brilliant but flawed mentor and Morty being the somewhat naive sidekick. Fanfiction writers might create such scenarios to explore the darker side of their relationship, but it's not a part of the main narrative.
There are indeed Rick and Morty comics. They're a great way for fans to immerse themselves deeper into the world of Rick and Morty. The comics sometimes explore concepts and characters that might not have been featured prominently in the show.
Well, an 'Evil Morty' fanfic in the 'Rick and Morty' universe can be really interesting. Evil Morty is such a complex character. In these fanfics, he could be explored further in terms of his motives. Maybe he's tired of being in Rick's shadow or he has some grand plan to take over the multiverse that wasn't fully shown in the show. Fanfics give the writers the freedom to expand on his backstory and what makes him tick.
Some writers might create this type of fanfiction for shock value. They know that the original relationship between Rick and Morty has a certain dynamic, and by making it into an abusive one, they can get a strong reaction from readers. Also, it could be a form of expressing their own dark interpretations of power dynamics within the show.
In such a fanfic, one aspect could be how Jessica views Morty. She might initially be dismissive or not even notice him, but as the story progresses, she could start to see his hidden qualities. Also, the fanfic could play with the different dimensions in Rick and Morty. For example, there could be a dimension where Morty and Jessica are already a couple, and Morty from our main dimension tries to learn from that version of himself to win Jessica in his own world.
Rick and Morty didn't start as a comic. It first gained popularity as an animated series. The show's unique storyline and characters made it a hit before any comic adaptations were made.
I'm not aware of any Rick and Morty comic in the newspaper. Maybe it's possible in some very specific or niche newspapers, but it's not a common occurrence.
I think they're good. The comics expand on the universe of the show and offer new adventures for the characters. The humor and creativity are still top-notch.
