Atomic Robo & The Agents of C.H.A.N.G.E. #2

While we get a few panels of the odd collection of villains hitting Tesladyne while Atomic Robo is away, incredulous over his absence and not really having a secondary target for their vengeance, and including a save by Dr. Dinosaur, most of Atomic Robo & The Agents of C.H.A.N.G.E. #2 follows events on the island where Atomic Robo learns the identity of the Agents of C.H.A.N.G.E. and what those he once considered friends are after.

It’s a challenging time for Atomic Robo with Alan entering a rebellious streak, Robo’s neighbor attempting to shut down Tesladyne’s latest (and often explosive) project, Dr. Dinosaur living with them, and Robo and his team taking back possession of Tesladyne Island from the government.

Atomic Robo & the Dawn of a New Era #4

Atomic Robo & the Dawn of a New Era #4In the penultimate issue of the mini-series events come to a head. First, Jenkins return proves a challenge for Robo finding a role for his new friend within the new Tesladyne that doesn’t involve him putting the new recruits in the infirmary or scaring them half to death. Hacking into the computer system to learn more about their mysterious instructor does nothing to elevate the new recruits’ fears.

With their vacation ending in fighting vampires from another dimension, Vikram and Lang prepare for a second attempt, but before they can get underway one of them will stumble upon Robo’s secret project. The discovery that Robo brought Alan back causes some… lively discussion among the group (though Alan’s reaction to the events, and many members of Tesladyne arguing for his immediate destruction, is still unclear).

Bernard‘s underground excursion also leads him to discover a familiar face… er, rock person. It seams Princess Nequai has survived the madness of Dr. Dinosaur and now has plans for Bernard. For a series that didn’t have any immediate threat, it now looks like there are two.
