2018 Best of the Year Nominees – Oni Press

Next week, Monkeys Fighting Robots will be announcing our awards for Best Cover and Best Single Issue of 2018; here are your nominees from Oni Press.

Nominations were collected from Oni Press as well as the MFR team. Oni holds the publishing license for Rick and Morty, one of the hottest shows on TV, and two of their nominees cash in on the fan-favorite Pickle Rick. Wubba lubba dub dub!

We’d like to offer a special thank you to Oni for participating; each of these choices are award-worthy. Readers: please be sure to pick up these comics if you haven’t already!
