PORTLAND,
OR April June 26, 2015 – Oni Press, Portland’s premier independent
comic book publisher, announced today the sixth issue of its Rick and Morty
comic, which is based on the hit Adult Swim animated series from
creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, will be a special issue

The Ball Fondlers are an unlikely team of action-star heroes appearing as an in-universe television show within the Rick and Morty television series from Harmon and Roiland. On this special comic adventure our heroes embark on an explosive, high stakes mission that takes them deep into the jungles of Central America.
