Rick and Morty is a hilarious animated series which follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his inherently timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe.
According to a press release from Adult Swim, in celebration of the deal, fans can look forward to the return of the highly successful country-wide tour of the Rickmobile, which hits the road on May 17th starting in Atlanta, GA. The one-of-a-kind mobile pop-up shop will be offering new exclusive, custom-designed show collectibles at more than 50 stops, including San Diego Comic-Con in July.
