Sorry, folks, but I don't read much by way of the comic book business these days. Simply put, it just got too expensive for my tastes, and I couldn't justify the ongoing investment when the 'return on investment' (that being, enjoying a good book) seemed to be growing smaller and smaller with each passing year.
In any event, I do keep my eyes peeled for the occasional 'something special,' and I recently read a blurb about IDW's "The Kill Lock." (link) The set-up -- four robots are simply trying to stay alive -- sounds reminiscent (in a good way) of the seminal SciFi film Blade Runner (1982), but this one ups the ante by linking the four together with a lock: if one dies, they all die. That definitely adds juice to the potential narrative, no?
If that premise alone tickles your fancy, then I'd encourage you to follow the link to get up-to-speed on the possibilities. The book is just kicking off, and I'm sure IDW and writer/artist Livio Ramondelli would appreciate your support.
As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!
