Just pulling together some backmatter for this, and realise it's worth another bump. Be prepared. Talk to your retailer. Don't let it get a surprise attack on you.

We've had the pleasure of reading an advanced copy of WHITE HOUSE ROBOT ROMANCE #1 by CHIP ZDARSKY, @rachaelstott.bsky.social and colourist Tamra Bonvillain. It is FANTASTIC! Instantly charming, subversive, thrilling and funny. It's remarkable how much emotion Stott gets out of a static robot face!
