review 1: I've had the first issue of Malinky Robot sitting in one of my longboxes for a few years now, enigmatic and weird and difficult to make sense of, a flash in the pan of independent comicbookery until I remembered that in our interwebbed world, nothing stays a mystery forever. So now this. It's a super-lovely little grotto of a book; what I think Calvin and Hobbes might be like if they lived inside Blade Runner -- a bittersweet post-apocalypse of magic. The two urchins -- androgynous Atari and pig-boy Oliver -- and their friend Little Robot pull at all of my heartstrings at the same exact time. It HURTS, you guys. It hurts ALWAYS but it's poignant and funny and elliptical and aimless. I love it. It's worth finding used on the internet. It's worth reading t... morewice.
review 2: I fell in love with Sonny Liew's artwork when the first Malinky Robot showed up at the comic store I work at. I found it increasingly difficult to track down subsequent copies, even going so far as to call some contacts in France to get the French version, so I am pretty stoked that an English collection is finally released. His loose, scribbly style fits the mischief of his characters well and the colors are great. less
