The best by far, however, are these four little dudes who seem to have an analogue to the four kids from Stand By Me. In “Tales from the Citadel,” the show introudces seemingly thousands more background Mortys. This Morty cracks the top ten for nobly (yet unwittingly) giving his life in pursuit of wacky sci-fi adventures. Morty C-137 replaces him and buries him in the backyard after his own world is Cronenberged. This poor Morty was exploded to death by his stupid Rick. When C-137 Morty speaks up to lead a revolution, Antenna Morty reveals that it’s his life’s sincerest mission “to write really crazy, intense action novels.” That’s a good Morty. Hey, a Morty with a speaking line! This Morty is trapped in the evil Rick’s dungeon along with dozens of other Mortys. Is that a helmet or actual hair? Plus he looks a little too much like the Tin Man. Robot Morty appears low on this list just because it’s not quite clear what’s going on with his hair. Robot Morty pops up in “Close Rick-Counters” as well thought he’s also a collectible character in Pocket Mortys. Um, did we stutter? ALL MORTYS SHOULD HAVE TWO EYES. Just like Cowboy Morty and many other Mortys on this list, Alien Morty first pops up in the season 1 penultimate episode “Close Rick-Counters of the Rick Kind.” Alien Morty is just a quiet little fella with three eyes. Why is Cowboy Morty #20? Because cowboys suck. What are the qualifications that makes a good Morty? Don’t worry about it. That still leaves quite a few Mortys who have appeared canonically onscreen during an episode of Rick and Morty. As of this writing there were 178 Pocket Mortys available (177 actually if we assume the first generic Morty players collect in-game is the “original” C-137 Morty). That excludes Mortys from the expanded comic book universe (there are five of them according to the Rick and Morty wiki) and also any and all Pocket Mortys from the mobile game. So we’ll just be counting Mortys that have appeared on the show.
