Review – Rick and Morty Presents: The Hotel Immortal Writer – Alejandro Arbona Artist – Marc Ellerby Colourist – Leonardo Ito Letterer – Crank! Publisher – Oni Press Release Date – 14th July 2021 Intro The next installment of the Rick and Morty Presents series kicks off with a whodunnit in Rick and Morty Presents: The Hotel Immortal. When Cornvelious Daniels checks in for some R&R at the Hotel Immortal, bodies start dropping—and accusations start flying! A fun Rick and Morty one shot which sees the pair in their own murder mystery story. How can someone die in a Hotel with an immortal dome where no-one can die? It’s a schwifty mystery that only Rick and Morty can solve! Writing Rick and Morty Presents: The Hotel Immortal is the fourteenth instalment of the Rick and Morty Presents series and some might say it’s difficult to keep the material fresh. Whilst the subject matter may not be the most original, writer Alejandro Arbona does bring the Rick and Morty Sci-Fi take on it. It did feel like it struggled to match the pacing of the animation but a good book nonetheless. Artwork I’m a traditionalist and I prefer the artwork to be in keeping with original. Not to detract from some of other variations in any way. But artist Marc Ellerby brings us the art style that is synonymous with Rick and Morty and paired with colourist Leonardo Ito, it’s just as you would expect from the animation. Overall Rick and Morty Presents: The Hotel Immortal. A murder mystery book which has the artwork in keeping with the animation and whilst it loses pace in places it is still a decent read. Fans of Rick and Morty will enjoy what is another fun addition to the ever growing franchise.   If you want to be part of the BGCP community, Join us on Discord, Twitter, Instagram etc then click HERE
