Trivia[]
- His hair is black in "The Rickshank Rickdemption" and blue in "The Ricklantis Mixup"
- It is possible these are two different Ricks, as the black-haired version is identified as "Black Rick" in The RickShank Rickdemption (Game), while the blue-haired version is called "Afro Rick" in Pocket Mortys.
- An interview with Justin Roiland revealed that Afro Rick originates from Earth E-33.[1]
- He could be seen as a racist caricature with the very dark skin, stereotypical afro and big red lips (in his "The Ricklantis Mixup" appearance) it is currently unkown if this was intentional.
