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.
One more thing that makes these fanfics unique is the way they can twist the relationships in the show. Evil Morty's presence can change the dynamics between Rick and Morty. For instance, Morty might start to question Rick more if he sees what an Evil version of himself is capable of. And Rick might have to reevaluate his relationship with Morty in light of this new threat. This creates a whole new set of story possibilities that are unique to these fanfics.
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.
By putting them in situations where they have to rely on each other. For example, if they are trapped in a dangerous dimension. This would force them to interact and potentially grow closer.
Morty's character often develops more confidence. When he time travels, he's forced to make decisions on his own without Rick always there to guide him. For example, if he's in a past where Rick is unavailable, he has to figure out how to deal with the situation. This makes him grow bolder.
One idea could be that Morty discovers a way to redeem Evil Morty. He tries to show Evil Morty that there's a better way than his villainous path. Morty could use his own experiences of growth and kindness to reach out to Evil Morty.
One interesting plot could be Morty traveling back in time to prevent Rick from creating a certain dangerous invention. This would lead to a whole new set of adventures as Morty tries to change the past without messing up the entire timeline. Another plot might be Morty getting stuck in different time periods and having to find his way back to his own time with the help of various versions of Rick he meets along the way.
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.
