Summary

In the year 2056, robots have replaced human beings in the workforce。 An uneasy co-existence develops between the newly intelligent robots and the ten billion humans living on Earth。 Every human family is assigned a robot upon whom they are completely reliant。 What could possibly go wrong? Meet the Walters, a human family whose robot, Razorball, ominously spends his free time in the garage working on machines which they’re pretty sure are designed to kill them in this sci-fi satire from Mark Russell (The Flintstones, Second Coming) and Mike Deodato Jr。 (The Amazing Spider-Man, The Resistance)。

Outstanding with every other page leading to laughing out loud or contemplating dystopia IRL。

Josh Newhouse

Another brilliant Mark Russell satire with art by legend Mike Deodato!

When the earth fell into ruins and the humans put robots in charge, everything seemed fine。 But what will the robots do when they're replaced by newer models and they're suddenly declared obsolete?Mark Russell is always good for a cynical, depressing, thought provoking good time so I grabbed this as soon as I could。 Mike Deodato Jr and a copious amount of robots were just icing on the cake。When power and status is your bread and butter, what happens when you're in danger of losing it?

That's the question Mark Russell poses in this book。 Deodato's art is fantastic in this。 He's hit or miss for me but this one is definitely a hit。 Russell, as always, knows how to depress as well as amuse。 He explores real world issues like toxic masculinity, obsolescence, automation eliminating jobs, environmental collapse, and unrestrained capitalism, through the lens of a robot uprising。I'm not sure how much more to reveal。 The ending was both a good stopping point and a tantalizing glimpse of the next volume。 Things are getting darker but also more hopeful。Not All Robots is a chilling, thought provoking, depressing good time, like most of Mark Russell's work。 Five out of five robots。 。。。more

This has everything。 Criticisms of Consumer capitalism, civil rights, eschatology, politics to name a few。 Not preachy in the slightest and genuinely funny。

Greg Trosclair

A very witty Robo-apocalaypse tale told by Mark Russell and drawn by Mike Deodata。 This felt quite believable and reminded me of the Mike Judge movie Idiocracy as it played out。

Dark sci-fi satire, a quick, dirty, hilarious look at a future run by robots。

I be upfront that I've liked the majority of Rusell's writing that I've read。 Then as I started this I was very close to giving up on it (reading it as digital floppies)。 As the series progresses it does get better。 If you've read a lot of science fiction, and I have, the story of robots subtly taking over society is not new。 What starts to make the story better is that of one human family Russell has the reader follow。This story really makes me think I have to sit down and read Russell's Flints I be upfront that I've liked the majority of Rusell's writing that I've read。 Then as I started this I was very close to giving up on it (reading it as digital floppies)。 As the series progresses it does get better。 If you've read a lot of science fiction, and I have, the story of robots subtly taking over society is not new。 What starts to make the story better is that of one human family Russell has the reader follow。This story really makes me think I have to sit down and read Russell's Flintstones, yes Flintstones comic, all the way through。 。。。more

The best book AWA has ever put out。 Mark Russell puts out a scathing satire touching on issues like toxic masculinity, AI supremacy, and consumer culture and just knocks it out of the damn park。 I would seriously recommend this to any and everyone。 I read the issues as they came out and will 100% be grabbing the trade whenever it drops to give it a reread。 Fantastic art by Mike Deodato Jr。 as well。 My only two complaints about the entire book are that the robots can be kind of hard to tell apart The best book AWA has ever put out。 Mark Russell puts out a scathing satire touching on issues like toxic masculinity, AI supremacy, and consumer culture and just knocks it out of the damn park。 I would seriously recommend this to any and everyone。 I read the issues as they came out and will 100% be grabbing the trade whenever it drops to give it a reread。 Fantastic art by Mike Deodato Jr。 as well。 My only two complaints about the entire book are that the robots can be kind of hard to tell apart sometimes, which is such a nitpick in the grand scheme of things。 I also would say issue 4 is stronger than the last one, but that’s like saying the final issue falls flat because it is only a 5/5 rather than a 6/5, like it’s still incredible, it just had a really tough act to follow。 The story itself is gripping though, with honestly one of, if not the single best dialogue exchanges in any comic I’ve ever read taking place in issue 4。 Bravo to all involved with making this incredible book happen, and thank you AWA for actually picking the series up when no other publisher would。Cannot wait for Volume 2! 。。。more

Really enjoyed the first issue- looking forward to seeing where this goes

Joe

Good start!

In standard tradition, Mark Russel is humorous and deceptively subtle with his commentary。 Art is gorgeous and I'm excited to see this 5-issue series play out!
