Based on Glitch Productions' global animation phenomenon created by Liam Vickers and now streaming on Prime Video, it's three cheers for 'destroy all humans' as all-star creators Wyatt Kennedy (Nights, Marvel Voices) and Jo Mi-Gyeong (Eve, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance) unleash the record-setting comics adaptation of the series that you have watched 330 million times: MURDER DRONES! In the far future on the desolate exoplanet designated Copper 9, the humans are long gone but the robotic worker drones they created to mine the planet's resources are still hard at work. Together, they have managed to forge their own makeshift society . . . or so they thought until a previously unknown kind of robot—the dreaded 'Murder Drones'—are activated by a long-forgotten human-scripted protocol to disassemble any worker that deviates from its original programming. But when a rebellious young worker drone named Uzi forms an unlikely alliance with two disassembly drones—Serial Designations N and V—can they, together, uncover the secrets of their origins . . . and stop the spread of the unsettling mechanical virus known as the Absolute Solver? Robots, violence, teen angst, mad science, love, loss, doors, hormones, and chaos! What more could you ask for? A pen, perhaps? It's a clicky pen! (Ask your kids. They'll get it!)
Younger readers may consider the material and stories in this omnibus dated. But for a guy like me who grew up reading these comics it was pure enjoyment. I prefer this era of DD over the more gritty stories of the Frank Miller (and beyond) era. Don't get me wrong, Frank Miller's work is excellent but it was after my time. It doesn't stir up the nostalgiac feelings of Daredevils simpler days when I was reading him.
As for Mixed Bag Comics. I have nothing but praise! My order was processed immediately. The omnibus was securely packaged and was in my mailbox less than a week after I ordered it. Keep up the excellent service!
