In the rough and tumble world of Super Pro K.O., professional wrestling is no joke. With contenders of every kind battling for glory on a nightly basis, there’s tons of drama inside and outside the ring! Current SPKO champion and arrogant heel King Crown Jr. prepares for a match against mysterious newcomer Bad Bad Butch O’Rowdy, who may care more about settling a personal score with Crown than the title itself. Meanwhile, hotshot Joe Somiano is getting used to the spotlight as his career takes off, but will it be stopped with the arrival of baseball superstar turned wrestler Romeo Colossus?
Why We Love It:
- 288-pages of hi-octane butt-whoopin’ for the low price of $14.99!
- It’s perfect for fans of Scott Pilgrim, sports manga, and over-the-top wrestling!
- Ultimate champ Jarrett Williams (Hyper Force Neo) puts the smackdown on comics with this imaginative and passionate portrayal of pro-wrestling.
- Appropriate for wrestling fans of all ages—for kids, teens, and adults!

After being goaded into an argument with Jerry about the ‘noble nature’ of sport, Rick takes Jerry and Morty to the biggest game in the Galaxy, where parents bet on their children as they fight to the death in a giant murdertorium! And Morty gets a front row seat!
Will Rick save Morty in time to prevent him competing? Will Jerry manage to elude the space mob? Will Morty find love in the bowels of the arena before it’s too late?
Probably not.
Why We Love It:
- It’s a special one-shot illustrated by writer and fan-favorite artist Tom Fowler!
- The moral of this story is that sports are dumb. Or maybe it was sports is awesome? Was there even a moral in this story? Whatever, MORALS ARE DUMB (just kidding, morals are good to have).
- If you like to see a bunch of aliens murder each other, than HOO BOY do we have a comic for you (it’s this one).
