...in the far future, robots have rebeled and conquered the human race.
Humanity's survivors have been forced from cities and towns and now live in caves on the outskirts.
But, after ten years, newly-armed humans are about to take back the planet...

This 1952 one-shot title from Avon Comics was scripted by Walter (The Shadow) Gibson and rendered by Gene Fawcette.
Avon did an amazing amount of one-time-only titles, probably more than any other publisher.
Some of them were adaptations of novels Avon's paperback division had published, like An Earthman on Venus.
Others, like RobotMen, were original stories.
(BTW: we originally planned to run this next Monday.
But. that's Halloween, and we have something special planned, so the conclusion was "bumped up" in the schedule!

Reading Room THE WALKING DEAD "Genesis of the Walking Dead"

Ever wonder how zombies are revived/reanimated?

Well, here's the explanation for the Walking Dead's undead!

Confused?

Oh, wait!

You thought it was the origin of the walkers/biters from this Walking Dead (whose TV version returns this Sunday) series?

Er...no!

This was the origin of the first b/w Walking Dead series!

Created by writer/artist Jim Somerville and published by Malibu/Aircel in 1989, it was vastly-different from the 2003-present series created by Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore.

For collectors, there's good news and bad news...

Good news: There's only a four-issue mini series and a one-shot Special to collect!

Bad news: Because it didn't sell well, it's HTF (hard to find) and expensive!
