Synopsis

Sam Slade is a robo-hunter and one of the best in the business. Whether dealing with rebellious robots on Verdus, the sneaky mafi a God-Droid and his plans to replace key human officials with robot replicas, or simply being hindered by his idiot kit-built robot assistant Hoagy, trouble is never far away! Written by comic legends John Wagner (A History Of Violence) and Alan Grant (Batman) with art by Ian Gibson (Halo Jones), this bumper volume chronicles the earliest adventures of the Robo-Hunter.

About this title

About the Author:

With over 300 2000 AD stories to his name - not to mention over 250 Daily Star Judge Dredd strips - Alan Grant's prolific creative record speaks for itself. Outside the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, Grant is well-known to Batman fans following a lengthy run on various incarnations of the title. More recently he has adapted Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novels Kidnapped and Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde in Graphic Novel format with artist Cam Kennedy. His television work includes scripts for the BBC series Ace Lightning and the Carnival of Doom and he is currently writing a feature length animation for a German company. John Wagner has been scripting for 2000 AD for more years than he cares to remember. His creations include Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Ace Trucking, Al's Baby, Button Man and Mean Machine. Outside of 2000 AD his credits include Star Wars, Lobo, The Punisher and the critically acclaimed A History of Violence. One of 2000 AD's best-loved and most honoured artists, Ian Gibson is responsible for the co-creation of The Ballad of Halo Jones (with Alan Moore), and created Bella Bagley, an unfortunate character in Judge Dredd's world who fell head-over-heels in love with 'Old Stoney Face' himself! His work outside the Galaxy's Greatest Comic includes Chronicles of Genghis Grimtoad, Star Wars, X-Men Unlimited, plus the designs for the TV series Reboot. Jose began his UK comics career with Starlord, and later co-created Ant Wars in 2000 AD. Along with illustrating Robo-Hunter he has also worked on Tharg's Future Shocks.
