A review by centauria
Atomic Robo and the Dogs of War by Brian Clevinger, Scott Wegener
4.0
Its difficult to feel this way, since it is a tale about war and the horridness such things bring, but this was a fun read.
The humor was light and spare, the attention focused on the characters fighting a horrible war, and the absurdness is what would be expected for such a tale.
I am a fan of Atomic Robo and want to see more tales of him (yes, I referred to the humanoid automaton as a him, since the outward expression is male), despite knowing there is no gender. Or is there?
Atomic Robo is very human: fears, concerns, joys, desires, etc. And war is always a good catalyst to bring that nature outward.
