Review by Matt Dembicki
Robots are the theme of the latest issue of this anthology. There’s a nice mix of styles here, with standout stories by Dean LeCrone, Anton Bogaty, Kevin Hanna and Eric Weems. Shane White’s color centerfold (reminiscent of the
Mars Attacks! trading cards) is magnificent. My only gripe is the price. $5.00 is a bit expensive for 64 pages, especially when it seems the book was hand-stapled quickly and haphazardly, and the pages weren’t trimmed. Normally, I wouldn’t care about these little things, but the appearance is a little sloppy, given the price.
