Hyperactive posted:Is that out today too? I could've sworn it wasn't due until the 24th. Could totally be wrong about that of course. I'm in the middle of writing two different upcoming volumes, so any news about release dates for the current stuff is a surprise to me. I put it on the new releases shelf so yes, it does indeed exist.

Covok posted:I was out all Labor Day weekend with my mates so I just saw all these awesome suggestions. You all made some good points and they really helped. I was, honestly, overthinking things. Would you mind dropping a line in here? I check this thread way more often than I do TG, and I'd be interesting in giving it a shot.

Is Robo getting a new head as well as a body? Is that his old beat up head in the background of panel #1 today?

I know that lots of Robo's parts are supposed to be black boxes, but come on. Tesla was working with the technology and materials of his era. It's been a hundred years, is there really nothing that the world's smartest nuclear engineer can use to do the job?

Hyperactive posted:It took us 1,500 years to rediscover Roman concrete. Closer to 1000, and that's only the use of pozzolan, which was overtaken by the wholly superior hydraulic lime. What really matters in concrete is pour technique. See the Panama canal leak problems for how even how good chemistry can be ruined by bad technique. I'm way too concerned about fake comic science anyway.

The man had a suit that 1) was powered by the telluric/magnetic fields of the earth 2) allowed him to fly and shoot thunder 3) gave him the ability to manipulate electronic currents to a degree that destroyed a private army on the verge of a coup Technology even close to that (Portable magnetic levitation, accurate and portable particle projection) is decades away. Comic Tesla was decades ahead of where ULTRA is now, and this was in the late 1800s. Also, he used Wardenclyfe to punch a creature that simultaneously does and does not exist. He's allowed some fantastic science. 8one6 posted:They're just setting up a need to raid Dr. Dinosaur's lab for atomic crystals. THE GREATEST ENERGY SOURCE!

I think it would be very funny if somehow Robo gets sucked through time again, this time he sees how his heart is built and sure enough... CRYSTALS! He finds out that was Tesla's big secret all these years, crystals!

Please tell me that while they're redesigning Robos hands, they include the ability to use touch screens.
