In some stunning news from Tesladyne Island earlier this week, the writers of the
Atomic Robo comic
announced that as of 2015, the comic will be transitioning from a traditional by-the-issue publishing model to a three-times-a-week webcomic. This means, among other things, that the entire 54-issue run of the comic thus far will be free to read - eventually, their plan is to release one issue a week until they catch up, starting
today - and then continuing with the new stuff. Which, cleverly, they now have over a year to come up with, though as today was the expected release date for the
Volume 9 trade it probably would have been about that long anyway.
Anyway, it looks like it's going to be an interesting year, to say the least, for Atomic Robo fans as things roll out. But there are still unanswered questions - such as, how long will the
"Free Comics" page remain in its current form? Will the new paradigm work as well as the creators hope it will? Will it include the
Real Science Adventures spin-off? Will Dr. Dinosaur ever top his
first two appearances?
