Robo is an ongoing cyberpunk comic series about a future where corporations have replaced governments, implants rent out processing time on your brain, and a superhero is a PR tool.

Links to read it in the next post!

Something I've wanted for a very long time arrived yesterday. A limited print run collecting the original pages of Robo 1-6 in one volume. This will be for sale starting at #BaltimoreComicCon at Table G25.

Come get 138 pages of cyberpunk action and intrigue!

Hired photographer. Jean will wipe his mind afterwards, always ethical Jean.

She's not getting paid for her acting so she's already getting fucked by the studio. But you can also 100% guarantee any of the people who have access to her model have put her in sex scenes.

I'd bet they do want new things but an anxiety of disappointment fills them when they see the unfamiliar so they rush back to comfort.

Or they would like new star wars, my hero academia, or Harry Potter

I share that frustration completely though, where I can barely stand Batman anymore for the asphyxiation of attention in all comics circles that relentless Batman creates

The Familiar will always be an easy win with a wide audience. Originals require tons of work but hopefully are very rewarding for creator and young fans

I found these models from @teccotoys.bsky.social and though this one was printed in the wrong type of resin, I'm very excited to paint them and display them.

When you copy runes, is their power copied? Depends on the strength of the magic in the runes, which these are some of the strongest known to men and bois.

The HVAC guy was interested and I gave him a bootleg copy of Robo #1. He ended up loving it but pointed out that there is a misprint in page order. If you've gotten one from me at HeroesCon or elsewhere, I think they might all have the misprint. Oops!

Jesse Keppler @moosecatcomics.bsky.social · Sep 5

I think it still come down to trust, because do you want to go to MyMonkeyClicker[.]info with a weird bad web design?

Jesse Keppler @moosecatcomics.bsky.social · Sep 4

Such heroic nonsense.

App Stores, even though they have many flaws, did arise in response to how unsafe random pieces of software was for quite a while beforehand. Many downloads would carry malware and users generally didn't trust a lot of applications because of it.

Already much of this is outdated. Mei Flower remains but Branton will not be introduced yet (and may change names). "Less Control Over Life" is certainly something I want to show but there aren't enough pages to dive into it for this issue.

Instead I'll be focusing on "Life Below is Harsher"

#howImakeComics Robo #7

I often start my scripts with "Story Junk" a section of random ideas and themes I want to build on. It becomes a huge mess of stuff until I feel like I have enough fitting the themes to fill the book.

Here is some of the first stuff written in the script document.

I've been toying with the idea of doing a series of "How I Make My Comics" which shows the process I go through from conception to publishing. I've begun work on Robo #7 and I'm going to use it as the alpha test of this process and also see how detailed I feel comfortable being.

The people who label mute buttons on gas pumps are heroes. And I mean it. If we each take a little action to choke off the relentless monetization of every moment of our lives things will start getting better.
