Mr. Skullface

We shouldn’t reveal it so soon, but I can’t help it. This is probably my new favorite Robo cover yet.

Click through to see the cover to the fourth and final issue of Atomic Robo and the Revenge of the Vampire Dimension.

And, no, Mr. Skullface is not his name.

    Click through where?

    Edison maybe? Is that the Necrophone?

  • Pattom

    …That wouldn't happen to be a necrophone in the background, would it?

    That’s at least five different levels of awesome, but I gotta ask: how big a pain in the ass was it to drop that wallpaper design in there? It’s one of those details that really makes the whole piece stand out a little extra, but it’s gotta take a huge chunk of time.

    Not that I don't like this cover a lot, but how could this possibly be better than Jeff Goldbloom/ Buckaroo Banzi Cowboy Robo riding a T-rex with a volcano exploding behind him? =P

    @Pattom: It might be.

    @Pattom: That was my first thought, but my comment was deleted or something. The fact that he's holding his lapels just makes me think of Edison for some reason.

    What's his name, if it's not 'Skullface'? I'd say 'Skelettor', but that one is already taken. 'Bones'? Same.

    One more thing… I just finished reading “Atomic Robo and the Shadow from Beyond Time” and I don't think a comic-book has had me smiling so much in a very long time.

    Thomas Deadison?

    Yeah, not sure what's up with that. Two comments to this post were glitchy and not showing up. :

    Easy. You'll fetch a huge price for that Dinosaur Island cover. I could plausibly be given the original art for this one without costing you a fortune! :D

    Ghost Rider + Thomas Edison = that guy!

    Really cool looking character though, cant wait!

  • Scott!

    Until I get some photographic evidence that the last cover I sent you is safely framed and under glass, I'm not sending you dick. :)
