  By now you know the routine - stop what you are doing, get your hide down to the local repository of comic books, and buy Atomic Robo. Do not hesitate. Do not hem and haw debating whether you should buy Atomic Robo or the latest issue of that cape and tight adventure with the story that has been retold a million times - BUY THIS BOOK! In fact, buy it three times and give it to everyone you know, and maybe even a few people you don't know, good Karma will follow you wherever you go. 5 out of 5 Stars, a second heaping helping of Major Spoilers Meatloaf, and a solid high five to Clevinger and Wegener for killing Edison... again.

  If, like me, youre just getting started with the Atomic Robo saga, The Deadly Art of Science serves as the perfect orientation. Its status as prequel means that seasoned readers are probably picking up on small details that the rest of us miss, but theres no lack of interesting fodder for us newbies. Now that Ive whet my appetite, Im definitely checking out those other four volumes. Read Full Review

  With the return of Doctor Dinosaur coming to Atomic Robo for the Free Comic Book day edition this week, this is a perfect time to get into this series. While you are in your shop you should pick up any of these back issues. Even if you just get this one I would be surprised if you are disappointed. There aren't too many comic books out there that have the wit, charm, action and character depth as this one. And how many comic books cast Thomas Edison as the main villain? I definitely recommend this book for anyone looking for something fun to read. Read Full Review

  From beginning to end this is the best series of so far of Atomic Robo and I'm going to be on the lookout for the trade paperback of the full series to add to my shelf. Definitely worth a look. Read Full Review
