Red 5 has made it’s mark over the last year, being a fan favorite for both it’s books’ outstanding art and their fresh, creative stories. One of the cornerstones for this independent publisher has been their cutting edge – retro sci-fi book Atomic Robo.
ATOMIC ROBO takes on Nazis, giant ants, clockwork mummies, walking pyramids, Mars, cyborgs and his nemesis, Baron von Helsingard, in his first trade paperback graphic novel.
This edition collects the hard-to-find, sold-out, debut issues of ATOMIC ROBO #1 through #6, complete with cover gallery, pin-ups, concept sketches and bonus stories.
Atomic Robo was the sleeper hit of last year and Robo fan anxiously await the second volume that is due out in August. The trade is $18.95 for 180 pages of stories and bonus material… on of the best deals for your well-earned comic money out there!
After re-reading these great issues, seeing the new art work and the new shorts. You simply could not ask for more and the “big boys” could take a lesson on how to do Trade Paper Backs right!
