Atomic Robo and the Dogs of War
Red5 Comics made me a very happy Paul this week when I discovered that they offer subscriptions at their official store. For the longest time, they didn’t even have an official store, and I found myself with incomplete runs of Atomic Robo and Neozoic. No more searching all the comic shops in the area, just to end up waiting for the trades – now I can get the issues as they’re released! I’m pretty hyped about it. I haven’t had a subscription to a comic book since Archie Comics was publishing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Anyway, after much effort, and the help of Local Heroes Comics, I was able to get my hands on a copy of the trade paperback of Atomic Robo and the Dogs of War. I know I could have just purchased it from Amazon.com, but that would have been too easy for Paul, Comic Hunter! Anyway, if you read my review of the first volume, Atomic Robo and the Fightin’ Scientists of Tesladyne, you’d know that I absolutely adored the series, thinking it was one of the best reads I’d had in a while. My only qualm with it was the fact that the way the trade was layed out, it was a bit hard to tell when one story ended and another began.
Did volume II, Atomic Robo and the Dogs of War, meet up to the high standards set by the first volume? Was it worth all the effort in trying to find the damn thing in the first place? Check out my review after the jump!
