Rick and Morty mocking the MCU
- Rick and Morty have been mocking the Marvel Cinematic Universe for a long time. In an episode, the whole Smith family was seen going to a Hulk musical and were wearing some of the MCU merch too. This must have been done with reference to the very real and very disastrous Spider-Man musical that debuted in 2010.
- The latest trailer of the show mocks the superhero with powers of the Mystic Arts, Dr Strange. In it, Rick’s signature jacket seems to enact Dr Strange’s magical cape which protects its owner. This clearly indicates that the crew of the adult animated tv series wants to target the MCU.
- In one episode, the grandfather and grandson duo were seen enacting the plot of the film, The Purge. In it, the duo were seen wearing a suit which was very similar to Iron Man’s suit. The characters had a similar power of a laser beam which slices anything it touches. Well, after knowing about Rick’s scientific experiences, so it is not surprising to see him built an Iron-Man Suit.
Even Captain America seems to be excited about this latest development. Here is what the star tweeted-
