review:
'Atomic Robo: Atomic Robo and the Ring of Fire' by Brian Clevinger with art by Scott Wegener features giant, planet threatening monsters, the people trying to stop it, and a brave robot.

I'm new to the series, so I'm not the best to tell you what went on before. The scientists of Tesladyne have gone underground and Atomic Robo is missing, presumed gone forever. Through some clever thinking, they realize he has gone into the past and they recover part of the robot. With just his head, and not much of a lab to work from, they start to rebuild a body for him. Meanwhile, the Earth is threatened by larger biological monsters. They have giant human controlled robots to fight them, but they are losing the battle. Can Atomic Robo and his friends save the day?

I was a bit lost at first, but it quickly won me over. I liked the subtle humor and the art was good throughout. I'd actually like to read the story before this one to see how the characters are developed and came to be together. Atomic Robo is pretty endearing, and I can see why his friends are so faithful to him.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors, IDW Publishing, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
