Be ye ready for adventure? Let’s be honest, unless you’re a Tesladyne Action Scientist, you’re not really ready for adventure. And even then it’s up for debate how much adventure you’re truly ready for. For example: facing off with Dr. Dinosaur deep within uncharted lands hidden in the bowels of the Earth. No one is ready for that.Lucky you that Atomic Robo: Nuts & Bolts is here to guide you through the drama and hilarity of this new volume of Atomic Robo as it unfolds!

Live from HeroesCon 2013, it’s Atomic Robo Nuts & Bolts! That’s right – Brian, Scott, and Cat hosted an episode of Nuts and Bolts in front of a live crowd in Charlotte, NC for the first time. In this episode we discuss Dr. Dinosaur and his first two Free Comic Book Day appearances in 2009 and 2011. Why, you ask? That kooky lizard is getting some of the spotlight in Volume 8 of Atomic Robo: The Savage Sword of Dr. Dinosaur! …So we figured a primer was in order.This is a momentous occasion! It’s the first time all three hosts have been in the same place together and we get to answer fans’ questions LIVE. (This also explains why it sounds like were in a gymnasium, there was a lot of slap-back in that tiny room.) Embark on a voyage into the strange! Including: Brian’s reoccurring time travel death dreams, the humor of cats, the Atomic Robo movie that never was, Jenkins history revealed, and of course… a terrifying look into the mind of Dr. Dinosaur.

It’s Free Comic Book Day! Join Brian, Scott, and Cat as they discuss Robo’s annual one-shot and the digital-only comic Two-Fisted Tales: Along Came A Tyrantula. Both of these stories are tied together in that they were drawn first and scripted afterwards, conceived around the same time, and BOTH involve Robo getting his metal butt kicked!In this episode we do something different: we time travel! Though, Robo would tell you that this is an impossibility (just like everything that comes out of Dr. Dinosaur’s mouth) it’s true! We go back to when the Free Comic Book Day issue was drawn and totally unscripted to delve deeper into the creative process than we’ve ever done before. Check out these uncolored doodle-rific pictures in the show notes so you can follow along (but not read-along, ’cause there’s no words, dummy!) Will Robo have tummy trouble? Why does Scott hate Thor? Who or what is Tyrantula based on? All these questions and questions YOU asked us in this episode! #askroboFor links and more info, head to the main episode page:https://nerdyshow.com/2013/05/atomic-robo-nuts-bolts-free-comic-book-day-13-along-came-a-tyrantula/ Hosted on Acast.
