Review: Atomic Robo #5 & 6


So I read the preview issues of Atomic Robo #5 & 6 here on my lunch break. I'm really happy to say that this series wraps up as strong as it started. This book read great as single issues, and the underly story arc that the book has carried for 6 issue was rewarding to those who continued to read it. This is the sort of thing I'd like more comics to feature.

I don't think I'd be spoiling anything to tell you that these two issues feature Atomic Robo and the Action Scientists fighting Nazi cyborgs and a robot with a brain in a jar.

Also - Hawaiian Shirt.


If you missed out on any of the previous issues, you can pick up these two issues and get a complete story arc. Issue #5 is on stands now, and issue #6 will be out soon. Or you could always wait for the collection that I'm sure will be out soon, and enjoy the entire series. Also, there is a Free Comic Book Day issue of Atomic Robo, which I'm sure will be a must have.

Atomic Robo is published by Red 5 Comics. Copies of these comics were provided for review purposes.

Hawaian Shirt Hell! Do my eyes deceive more, or is Robo teaming up with Scarlet, Roadblock, and Bazooka -- 3 members of America's highly trained special missions force, G.I. Joe!
