Endless Myth and Rick and Morty
— From the Living Room to the Multiverse, and Beyond Fiction Itself —
The novel Endless Myth and Rick and Morty share surprisingly deep similarities.
At first glance, they appear completely different:
One is a cosmic mythological science-fiction saga
The other is an absurd animated black comedy
Yet both works ultimately dismantle reality itself.
What makes Rick and Morty especially extraordinary is that it uses gigantic cosmic concepts for jokes lasting only a few seconds.
That is where the true madness of the series lies.
1. A Universe Beginning in the Living Room
Rick and Morty begins as something resembling a dysfunctional family comedy.
A living room.
Family arguments.
School life.
Daily routine.
But suddenly the story explodes outward into:
Alternate dimensions
Multiverses
Temporal collapse
Godlike entities
The domestic and the cosmic become directly connected.
2. Shared Themes with Endless Myth: Infinite Cosmic Expansion
In Endless Myth, reality expands through structures such as:
Multiverses
Metaverses
Xenoverses
Omniverses
The Uncertain Infinite Domain
Rick and Morty also evolves far beyond ordinary parallel-universe storytelling.
The series constantly introduces:
Infinite realities
Universes with incompatible laws
Worlds built on entirely different mathematics
Narrative-structure universes
The laws of reality themselves become unstable and endlessly variable.
3. Science Destroying Ethics
Rick Sanchez represents scientific intelligence taken to an extreme.
But his science destroys ethics entirely.
He casually:
Abandons universes
Creates copies of himself
Replaces alternate versions of his family
Causes civilizations to collapse in moments
Science becomes detached from morality and humanity itself.
4. Parody and Metafiction
One of the greatest strengths of Rick and Morty is that it does not merely parody science fiction.
It deconstructs fiction itself.
The series constantly plays with:
Movie references
Narrative structures
Genre conventions
The concept of authorship itself
This pushes the show into true metafiction.
Endless Myth similarly expands its universe through layered observation systems and cosmological narrative structures.
5. Creating Entire Universes for a Single Joke
This may be the most astonishing aspect of Rick and Morty.
Most fictional works spend years developing one universe.
But Rick and Morty creates:
Unique civilizations
Unique universes
Unique biological systems
Unique laws of time and physics
only to discard them seconds later for a joke.
The series treats universe creation as disposable.
The scale itself becomes absurd.
6. The Possibility of Containing All Fiction
Because the multiverse in Rick and Morty is effectively infinite, the show implies that every possible reality can exist somewhere.
In theory, this includes:
Every movie
Every comic
Every science-fiction concept
Every mythology
The series even approaches the possibility of absorbing “reality itself” into its metafictional framework.
This strongly resembles the omniversal structure of Endless Myth.
7. Cosmic Philosophy Hidden Inside Comedy
Rick and Morty is a comedy series.
Yet beneath the humor, it explores enormous philosophical themes:
Existentialism
Infinite cosmology
Simulation theory
Many-worlds interpretation
In many ways, it is cosmic philosophy disguised as absurd comedy.
Conclusion: Universes Become Disposable in the Age of Infinite Fiction
Endless Myth and Rick and Morty both depict realities that exceed ordinary concepts of existence:
Endless Myth: infinite layered cosmic mythology
Rick and Morty: satirical infinite-consumption multiverse fiction
What makes Rick and Morty so unsettling is that entire universes can be discarded casually for a momentary joke.
The weight of existence itself collapses.
This comparison leads to a larger question:
What is an infinite universe?
A grand mythology—
or merely endless information consumed and discarded without limit?
