Jig-Rick
In Season 3 episode 4, “Vindicators 3: The Return of Worldender,” Rick and Morty are summoned by the superhero team the Vindicators to vanquish the nefarious Worldender. However, they instead wind up in a deathtrap of “Drunk Rick’s” devising. We’ve all been there before. This episode pokes fun at superhero groups a la the Avengers.
But that’s not all! Rick’s increasingly intoxicated self bears a striking resemblance to Jigsaw, the formidable villain from the popular horror franchise, Saw. Again, it’s not uncommon for Rick and Morty to venture beyond the sci-fi genre in terms of pop culture references. We hope that someday the show will revive “Jig-Rick,” the name we created for him.
