Atomic Robo in trades this December

Red 5 Comics has Atomic Robo, the story of a robot wreaking havoc. Or saving lives. It depends on whether or not you're pro- or anti-Skynet. Anywho, if you haven't been checking out the series come December you'll have a chance to get caught up with three trade paperbacks being released. The first is Atomic Robo TPB Volume 1 is actually a second printing. It was double-Eisner-nominated for Best Limited Series and Best Coloring. In it, Atomic Robo takes on Nazis, giant ants, clockwork mummies, walking pyramids, Mars, cyborgs and his nemesis, and Baron von Helsingard. Fun times. $18.95 gets you all 180 pages on December 9 (OCT091063). Atomic Robo TPB Volume 2 (also Eisner-nominated) puts the title character on the front lines of World War II against Nazi Germany. Facing invincible walking tanks to atomic-powered weather cannons, Robo and The Sparrow have to complete their mission without killing each other. $19.95 for 152 pages on February 25 (OCT091064). Atomic Robo TPB Volume 3 is the third and final TPB available, and it involves H.P. Lovecraft warning Robo of doom. Robo has to team up with himself (there's time travel involved here) to fight off the doom. This one is $18.95 for 152 pages and releases on December 9 (OCT091062). If you want any of the books then get your order in with your local comic book store. These will probably move pretty fast.
