“Uncle Slam is an idealistic innocent. He believes in the American Dream, but his vision of that dream is a little warped,†said creator Ande Parks. “Our story features Uncle Slam fighting a giant robotic version of the evils facing our nation… terror, immigration, and gay marriage, on the stage of the Republican Convention! What could be more American than that?!â€
“With all the drama already in full swing from the primaries and the guaranteed tension that’s going to mount right before the 2008 election, we think UNCLE SLAM is the breath of satiric relief the comic community’s going to need,†commented Oni Press Editor in Chief James Lucas Jones.
