Atomic Robo follows the thrice Eisner Award nominated adventures of a robot adventurer through a century of sci-fi action. Every single comic is available online at atomic-robo.com and we're uploading new pages every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
And while getting tons of free comics is great, we know a lot of folks prefer to own a physical copy. So with the help of our maniacal fans and Kickstarter we're printing our newest volume Atomic Robo and the Temple of Od as a super deluxe ultra fancy hardcover.
But that's not all!
Real Science Adventures is our spinoff series where we tackle stories from around Robo's world! Just like our main series everything is available online for free, but why not give 'em the ultra deluxe super fancy hardcover treatment too? We're kicking things off with The Flying She-Devils: Raid on Marauder Island because lady air pirates = hell yeah. This volume features art by our friend Lo Baker and a shorter Sparrow story drawn by our buddy Wook Jin Clark.
We've already published ten hardcovers thanks to Kickstarter and you maniacs, so we've seen everything that can tie up a production cycle. Here's how we're kicking all that stuff right in the guts: these books are finished. The layouts are finished. The files are already locked in with the printer! They sent proofs. Behold!
Everything is ready to go. All we need to know is how far you'll take our stretch goals and then we can pull the trigger to produce everything as soon as Kickstarter deposits the funds. The turn around's gonna give you whiplash.
Each book is 168 pages. These include all comic content, plus a short story unique to each book, and the Secret Files of Doctor Dinosaur in Temple of Od and the Secret Files of Majestic 12 in Raid on Marauder Island. Each book also has introductions, concept art, cover galleries, etc.
STRETCH GOALS
We're keeping things simple this time. As our funding increases we start throwing more prints and stickers and patches at ya! It all culminates with the only complicated item in the whole campaign: a neat Tesladyne pin! Well, okay, it's not that complicated, but it qualifies as complicated since we've never done one. But we figure since the rest of the campaign consists of tried and true products with no surprises, then we can afford one fancy embellishment. Folks have been asking for pins, so who are we to deny them!
Oh, and then there's the missile silo of course. We need it now more than ever. Check out the breakdown below...
Look at all the loot you can pick up in return for helping us to make more Atomic Robo!
In addition to these two beautiful hardcovers we're also offering signatures, postcards, digital versions of everything, and more! Let's breakdown the reward tiers.
Risks and challenges
All files are already completed and approved. All we need now is the funding to produce everything and ship it to you. The only risk from here on out is the admittedly small chance of a meteor strike.
