Wouldn't it make more sense without the Delorian? Also how is that a shirt a legally safe parody?

It needs no border, no flames and no -Morty at the end of the quote.

Those things all contribute to make it look like a kids shirt. Remove them and it's something a bit more reasonable. Just my two cents.

E: the Send Help doesn't really contribute, either. Just Help would probably be better. Also, smaller lettering.

2E: you have to remember that on a black shirt that framing and the fire will just look weird.

Sans border, you'll have to set this up so the bottom of the image begins at the bottom of the shirt, or just create a border at the bottom of the image.

Also I think "We're stuck in a legally-safe parody knockoff t-shirt!

SEND HELP!" might be funnier.

Or put something in front of them to justify the 1/2 figures. Or do their entire bodies.

If not for the fact you've already got it more or less finalized, I almost think Rick would be better more off in the background staring off at an angle like he doesn't even care.

I'd like to see a Morty that came into being without a Rick to be his grandfather, to be honest.

Although I guess Rick could have died before Morty was born or something.

Well, Rick was given a voucher for a free Morty, so they clearly have some way to cultivate them.

You do understand how parody works right? I mean by definition parody takes other peoples intellectual property.

The show itself uses parody of other people intellectual property. Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical for you to get on your high horse about some guy selling parody tv shirts based on someones intellectual property, but not a TV show that does the same thing except makes a poo poo-ton more money?

Granted the TV show does do a lot more than JUST parody Back to the Future, but there's only so much you can fit on a t-shirt.

Like 90% of the internet T-shirt market is ripping off other peoples' IP.

The fact that it's more creative than "whoa what if Optimus Prime turned into Dr. Who's police box :awesome:" or "Get this, we draw The Dude but he has Tron colors :awesome:" puts it streets ahead of just about everybody else online.

Badly worded maybe. Let me rephrase that.

Still the guy is being a total rear end. What kind of stick in the mud do you have to be to whine about someone selling a novelty t-shirt on the internet based on a show you like anyhow?

Maybe the guy just woke up on the wrong side of the bed. :shrug:

To be fair, I don't entirely disagree with him. But at the same time, it's super fun to do and I try to make something that hopefully isn't obnoxious or too out there. I think the only shirt I've ever made that was in the "bad dumb" area was a Regular Show shirt Breaking Bad parody. Outside of there being two main characters, the connection is nil. Bad shirt. However I'm wearing a Rick and Morty T-Shirt right now thanks to internet parody people. So there is good.

But I do get tired of "DR. WHO+PONY!" poo poo because none of those things are connected. DR. Who does not go well with everything. (or anything for that matter).
