After the robot cops finally nab him, animatronic ABE gets hauled to the factory for a little “maintenance.” But if he keeps yapping about humans, there ain’t gonna be enough of him left to fix. They got a whole bag of dirty tricks waitin’ for him—torture, mind-wipin’, and magnets so mean they’ll pull the thoughts right outta your skull. A strange and thunderous tale of the future—dark, mechanical, unforgiving and the sci-fi smash hit of the year.

    I already require the next issue of “If Destruction Be Our Lot” to be in my hands. This issue continues an already going trend of the Rosenberg brothers, MacDonald and Segala creating something truly once-in-a-lifetime. This series could really teach us a thing or two. Read Full Review

    If Destruction Be Our Lot #2 is a nicely paced story that shows the reader the darker side of this world. As we go through the different levels of this prison, it really feels like we are going through the different levels of Dante’s Hell. Not only does the story deliver on this level, but it also delivers with a great cliffhanger that is sure to hook every reader. This series is two issues in and it’s already making its way to one of my favorite books in the shop. Grab a copy at the shop this week and find out what I’m talking about. Read Full Review

    You don’t need a high concept to have a successful issue when you have witty dialogue and outstanding visuals. Despite the simple plot, this issue wows with amazing illustrations of our dreary robotic future. Read Full Review

    IDBOL #2 is another fun issue that presents more questions about both identity and robo-society. With an entertaining narrative and clean art this should be on your reading list if it isn't already. Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff

    Jun 18, 2026

    The series begins to look a little bit more interesting as the android nature of the Abraham Lincoln in the question fade into the background. And it just becomes a fish out of water science fiction horror story. There are a lot of different ways that the story could be taken, depending on which end of Lincoln's Legacy. They are going to be focusing on with respect to his relationship to this world. So it will be interesting to see what they do with it. Read Full Review

    Even though the cast is (currently) just robots, IDBOL #2 continues to be a shining example of pro-human sci-fi. Read Full Review
