I write Atomic Robo.

Our newest series is Atomic Robo and the Dogs of War.

hey man. I’ve been wanting to get yer book so I bought the vol 1 graphic novel to give it a shot!

BillyMC says:

Atomic Robo has made it to my all time fave list.

Chris says:

Great Post! Especially From my position as an indie creator and as a retailer, the problem appears to be that there’s too many of the wrong kind of reader. I’m talking about the lifers who stick to Marvel and/or DC. People who routinely shell out $50+ per week on books they don’t even really enjoy, but who are afraid they might “waste” $3 on something they “might” not like when they acknowledge to throwing away $50+ on books they largely dislike I hope you guys continue to have success critically, and hopefully commercially. As for me, as long as there is Atomic Robo I will be buying it.

Robert says:

And it still wasn’t earning enough to be self-sufficient. Let me be absolutely clear on this point: Red 5 Comics made Volume 2 possible. Without their support, I’d have long since gone bankrupt and there’d be no new Robo comics for you.

Man, that’s scary. : (

Robert says:

I picked up Atomic Robo on a whim when issue 4 was out. Really enjoyed it, and love to see the fabulous work continued in the new volume.

Keep ‘em flyin’ and I’ll keep buyin’.

CommonWriter says:

Hooray! Dogs of War begins. Just as good as the first series so far! Thanks.

BeetleBooster says:

Loved Robo, loved the humor especially. I’m really looking forward to Dogs of War. Keep up the good work! :-)

-b. says:

As part of my massive catch-up (65 comics!!!), I’m getting Atomic Robo 1-6. Looking forward to it! I read the first issue and it was terrific. Thanks!

MadMikeyD says:

FCBD was my introduction to Atomic Robo, and I loved it! I need to get myself caught up.

El Dorado says:

Hey Brian, I loved the FCBD story. I picked up the first three issues of Robo a while back and really enjoyed them as well. Looking foward to catching up on them when the trade comes out and also excited about new ongoing series.

Nicholas says:

Hey I just started reading Atomic Robo and so far I’m loving it! I LOL’d so hard at the prank Stephen Hawking pulled on Robo. I think I’m going to have to add your book to my subscriptions. Keep up the good work.

Robert says:

Dang, I wish I had checked nuklearpower before I went to go see Superhero Movie. I completely missed seeing Atomic Robo. Then again, it’s probably a good thing that Atomic Robo won’t be directly associated with that movie, cause it was pretty bad. I can understand why the occasional poop/fart joke can be funny, but that’s a good majority of the movie right there. That and a whole scene of animals humping.

daynah says:

Sorry, by people I’d rather see interviewed, I meant more than myself. :)

Dan says:

Atomic Robo gets a nice mention in an aside here

Robert says:

I will agree that USM is most definitely the best Ultimate series. UXM comes in a close 2nd. The problem is when they do crossovers between the two. The crossovers themselves aren’t a problem, they’re very enjoyable to read. The problem is that it creates timeline anomalies. Whenever the X-Men are featured in USM, there’s no possible way to fit it into the UXM timeline (they are very busy people).

Robert says:

Your newest blog entry made me think about the Marvel Ultimate universe; essentially a completely rebooted universe in order to get rid of the ‘cache’ that caused continuity errors. Despite their best intentions, they already have a bunch of inconsistencies (The biggest offender is the “Ultimate Team-Up” series). Most of them are relatively minute, but could have easily been prevented. Nothing profound here, just something that came to mind.

Yeah, I'm stupid and only figured out how to friend people, like, yesterday :D
e.g. johnson says: Hey. Just letting you know that the only problem I've been having with the issues I've seen is that they are too damn short. =) But then I've always had that "need more!" issue with your writing. -e
Mr. Squeekers says: DANGER: BLURB Mr. Clevinger, while I have not picked up Atomic Robo (something I hope to remedy). I am a huge fan of 8 Bit Theater and Nuklear Age, and I eagerly await Atomic Age. P.S. I miss Angus.
Todd Michael R. says: So Brian, as a published writer, why don't you come bang the pots and pans around in the I AM A WRITER thread? http://heavyink.com/forum/forums/1/topics/28?page=1#posts-333 (sigh) I'll go buy your comic.
MD says: "...And now .I'm. wondering how much of what he'd pay winds-up back in his own pocket. :)"

Worst. Investment. Plan. Ever.
blue_j says: ...And now .I'm. wondering how much of what he'd pay winds-up back in his own pocket. :)
MD says: "Way to subscribe to your own comic!"

I'm just wondering if he still has to pay for it...
Brian! says: Hey, it's a title I suggest everyone read just like my other subscriptions :)
Todd Michael R. says: Way to subscribe to your own comic!
Tyler says: Hey. Thanks for signing up. I'm a big fan of the comic.

Interview Madness

In lieu of actual content tonight, I’ll just assume Scott or I said something insightful or interesting in one of the following interviews.

Alternate Reality Podcast and The Gigcast interviewed us back-to-back on the same night. We’re going to have to get Skype so we don’t sound all garbled and delayed and dumb on these things.

And if podcasts aren’t your bag, then newseedcomics.com has got you covered there as well.
