Broken Frontier

Robot 13, the action-horror-mystery series by Blacklist Studios duo Thomas Hall and Daniel Bradford, has received near unanimous acclaim from the comics community, with a sold-out first issue (though an alternate cover edition is still available), and a long list of critical praise.   It was only natural, then, that Robot 13 would seek a whole new level of potential audience on the Apple and Google mobile marketplaces via Robot Comics.

Fantastic.  Phenomenal.  Best book I’ve read all year.  Hellboy and BPRD fans definitely should not be without this book…and I wonder what it would take for Dark Horse to consider a crossover.  This is absolutely must reading and I can’t promote it enough.

This self-published series is just as impressive as the adventures of Hellboy, and does deserve just as wide an audience. I can sum up this series in two words: must buy.

–Kris Bather, Broken Frontier

Synopsis

R13, or Robot 13, is the story of a robot who fights mythological monsters.  After his body is pulled from the ocean depths off the coast of Spain, R13 is thrust into a series of epic battles with creatures of historical renown.  But…why?  Could there be a thread connecting these battles?  Who is Robot 13 and and where does he originate from?  R13 depicts the odyssey of a hero awoken from the ocean floor as he looks for answers to who he really is…and fights a lot of crazy-big monsters while he’s at it.

Robot 13: Colossus is the first action-packed series of the Robot 13 mythos, written by Thomas Hall and with art by Daniel Bradford. Coming to mobiles Winter 2009.
