Robo-Hunter #Verdus
Robo Hunter - Verdus
En el mundo de ROBO-HUNTER, los robots fueron diseñados para no volverse locos… ¡pero lo hacen! Por suerte, Sam Slade está ahí para detenerlos. En esta divertida aventura viajará al planeta Verdus, donde los robots habían sido enviados a “terraformar” y preparar la colonización humana. Sin embargo, tras la llegada de los primeros colonos, se ha perdido todo contacto. La creencia en la superioridad humana de los robots les ha hecho creer que los seres humanos eran simples simulacros humanoides, lo que ha provocado su encarcelación. Sam Slade descubrirá que su liberación no es tarea fácil en un planeta bajo control robot. El resultado es un cómic repleto de acción y del característico sentido del humor de la mítica revista de ciencia-ficción 2000AD. La firma del reconocido guionista John Wagner (creador de Juez Dredd, el Scareface de Batman...), bajo el pseudónimo de T.B. Grover, así como de los dibujantes Ian Gibson y José Ferrer, es toda una garantía de calidad.

De lo mejorcito que leí de series provenientes de la revista 2000 AD. Historia ágil, divertida e irónica, llena de acción, pero que Wagner aprovecha para mofarse (como es su costumbre) de los diferentes estratos de la sociedad: los poderes ejecutivo y legislativo, el poder eclesiástico, las fuerzas armadas, etc.

This was soooooo good. I have never really before cared about Robo Hunter, mainly because I do not like Ian Gibson's art but in this one, the first adventure, everything was in place.
The story was interesting and dramatic but also silly and funny and the art worked. Gibson was here trying to copy the original artist Ferrer. Although at the end his own style is pushing trough by even that does not bother me because the story was so good.

Hilarious.
The story holds-up today despite its naivete because of its comedic streak. The art is great and consistent.
3.5/5

I know that Sam Slade, Robo-Hunter, is one of 2000AD's most popular characters but I'm one of the few readers who wished he was S-L-A-Y-E-D. The rat-a-tat-tat of jokes, visual gags and bizarre situations fail to hit my funny bone. Why? Perhaps because it's bit too slapstick for me. Also I think it's because Ian Gibson's art here is not that good. It looks rushed and sketchy, often with no background detail. I wished Kevin O'Neill had illustrated this story as it's an ideal situation for him & he would filled in the background with wonderful robotic detail.

Some hopeless moments spattered with some pulp magic and cynicism. Probably only for 2000AD tragics.
