This is a video essay diving into the complete backstory of the character Doofus Jerry from the Rick and Morty comics. In this video I describe what sets this version of Jerry Smith apart from the others and depict his rise to glory as well as his fall from grace giving my own personal observations and opinions of the character along the way.

Doofus jerry being an imbalance in the multiverse shows just how egotistical Rick really is

[@dantdmfangamingrich9802]

The reason why Doofus Beth doesn’t exist is because Doofus Rick didn’t have kids

[@bobgog1232]

Its kinds weird that rick didn’t use one of his inventions to instantly kill jerry

[@Rakanarshi2]

Man, that should have been a proper episode. It's a bit sad it was stuck to the comics.

[@ProtoAlpha]

The fact they teased this guy in the recent season's intro is crazy

[@lostlandr]

Despite belonging to Rick subset where every Jerry is destined to be a loser, Doofus Jerry almost conquered the multiverse. I wonder how Jerry Prime would be like in an unfiltered multiverse...

[@theauditor3224]

its scary to consider how strong a jerry CAN be if he wasn't held down by his mentally insane family

[@emi3linatr878]

Imagine how destructive the fact that doofus rick invented portal travel on his own is. All ricks exept rick prime and c-137 are instantly below doofus because of this. If they all knew they would probably be depressed or in denial lmao

[@jackcrowley2021]

Side note, what’s also brilliant about this is that it wasn’t Doofus Jerry’s luck specifically turning bad, but

[@atesz7636]

The fact that the only thing that managed to kill doofus Jerry is Jerry is so hilarious

[@thereprehensible435]

TL;DR

[@imbadatusernames8206]

The fact that every jerry that's powerful or successful always is by himself without his family just shows that while yes he may be holding beth back its also the other way around. the entire family is holding each other back and only the versions of the family who no longer cared about each other and went on their own became super powerful and successful.

[@WrinkledPaper674]

It would be great if Doofus Jerry appeared on the show

[@exodus_6969]

Doofus Jerry being killed by our Jerry's ignorance is both hilarious and beautiful.

[@Acemancello]

Imagine: Prime Rick, Evil Morty, Doofus Jerry, Space Beth, and Night Summer all team up

[@LordTyph]

Honestly, 137 Jerry took too many lessons from Rick, I think.

[@Fire-wb3ih]

“Genius is wasted on you” is cold 🥶

[@Luffy_da_king_]

Man doofus jerry is an underrated villan

[@zstrikes8949]

I jut realized there is no Beth in the Doofus universe, so does that mean that if a Jerry doesn't meet a Beth, they'll be like Doofus Jerry?
