DISCUSSION

ATOMIC ROBO AND THE VENGEFUL DEAD
Writer: Brian Clevinger
Artist: Scott Wegener
Atomic Robo and the Vengeful Dead is the latest chapter in Robo’s exciting life. Now he’s…sort of a university administrator? But for a sci-fi action school to train the next next generation of ACTION SCIENTISTS including his sorta-secret robot son with the rebooted intelligence core from the Advanced Learning Algorithm Network that nearly killed all life on Earth, and framed Atomic Robo for it, and got Tesladyne shut down by the secret fascist science police, which indirectly threatened all life on Earth (again), and got a bunch of his comrades probably killed and definitely hunted as terrorists for a few years.

But he’s doing much better now.

Meanwhile! Robo and Tesladyne have been working with various scientific super groups around the globe to establish a global odic shield to protect the Earth from extra-dimensional shenanigans and it will definitely not malfunction in a big catastrophic way why would you even think that?

Atomic Robo

The robot punches monsters and bad robots and one time he was a cowboy.
