Welcome to THE UNCANNY VALLEY, an incredibly illegal Sex & Death club, where humans fight one another in a pit and whoever loses has their dead body parts taken by Tranmechs to add to their own robo-bodies. It's gross so Magnus has to try really really really really REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY hard not to lose. Mechanized mayhem from FRED VAN LENTE (Conan The Avenger) and CORY SMITH (Fathom)!
Though the first five issues of Magnus flowed well for me, this issue felt a little more disjointed and forced in a way that I can't quite pinpoint. I'm wary of the Transmechs, though their inclusion makes sense in the kind of larger culture that's been presented. We get some decent progress with Magnus and Moira in their search for Leahm and we get a little bit about what's going on with Clane's rival senator that he's tracking for his own purposes. There's a lot of things going on in this book and it's building its foundations well, but I'm also feeling the need for something pivotal or significant to really happen at this point to give us a taste of what's really going on when it comes to Magnus. The book has some decent action to it, but it's a segment that feels more like it's there just to keep it in the book rather than as an important part of the storyline. Luckily, we only get a little H8R this time around. Read Full Review

Magnus: Robot Fighter may not have been as exciting as usual, but the story progression and character interaction made it a worthwhile read. Recommended. Read Full Review
The only book from the GK revival as fas as Im concerned.
Also, whats up with this issue being reviewed so in advance of release?
I'm impressed with how entertaining I found this issue despite the fact that not much really happened.
