Ryan Ferrier and Valentin Ramon are back with D4VEOCRACY, the third arc of the acclaimed D4VE series. In the wake of a robo-political assassination, D4VE begins a presidential campaign. A hip new app startup has other plans for the robot society, however, and creates the perfect political rival.
• From the acclaimed creative team of D4VE, D4VE2, and HOT DAMN!
Aside from a slower pace and a dense plot that's hard to gather, this is a fun first issue that sets up the world and a political campaign that should be fun. If you're fatigued from the politics of the last year hang in, as D4VEocracy is primed to be a fantastic social commentary you won't want to miss. Read Full Review
If you're a long time D4VE fan or you've never read the prior series, this issue is a must read in this existential hellhole that is 2017. Read Full Review
True to form, D4VEOCRACY 1 is silly in how comically true-to-life it can be, but that's what makes it so good. Ferrier and Ramon's mix of unique writing and art continue to breathe life into the robot world, as we're greeted with familiar themes from earlier arcs that better prime us for what's to come.

D4VEocracy #1 shines a light on the human elements that both continue to make this series fun, and the qualities that bring us to a full understanding of why. That has always been praiseworthy.

D4VE is back and he needs your vote! Ferrier and Ramon have crafted an interesting third arc that is a great jumping on point for new and returning fans as they explore robo-political issues that D4VE may not be able to simply punch his way out of. It's a fascinating, fun social commentary that is a welcome distraction in the currently churning political climate that really may give way to the rise of robot overlords (we can hope anyway).

D4veocracy feels like the inevitable escalation of the previous volumes. This first issue is a satisfying and entertaining return to one of the oddest creations in comics these days. And it looks like Ferrier through D4v3 is going to be dealing with some of the biggest issues and highest stakes yet. I'm sure everything in the story will work out in end. Nah, it will probably be terrible won't it? Butthorn! Read Full Review
With this being the third arc of the series, it was naturally a challenge to go into this book. Had I read the other content, I'd probably have felt more comfortable reading it. I'm sure current fans will benefit from starting this, but newcomers should probably pass. Read Full Review
