Ro-Busters: The Disaster Squad of Distinction!

International Robot Rescue, brought to you by the greatest creators in comics!

'WHO YA GONNA CALL? RO-BUSTERS!'

By the end of the 22nd century, robots are a commodity that Man can’t live without. Like all technology, newer and better models are constantly being unveiled, making their predecessors obsolete. Enter Ro- Jaws and Hammerstein – an environmental droid with an attitude and a battle-weary war-bot. Both were ready for the scrap-heap until Howard Quartz – the billionaire brain in a robot body - bought them both so they could join his international rescue squad. Now the durable duo are plunged into the kind of disastrous situations no human being could ever survive, knowing full well that failure would lead to them being dismantled by the psychotic battle tank Mek-Quake!

Featuring the work of legendary 2000 AD talent, including Pat Mills (Marshal Law), Alan Moore (V for Vendetta), Dave Gibbons (Watchmen), Kevin O’Neill (League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) and Steve Dillon (Preacher), prepare for a slice of classic Thrill-power!

Pat Mills is the creator and first editor of 2000 AD. For the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, he is the writer and co-creator of ABC Warriors, Finn, Flesh, Nemesis the Warlock, Sláine, M.A.C.H 1, Harlem Heroes, Savage, Defoe and Greysuit. He also developed Judge Dredd and wrote one of the early Dredd serials - The Cursed Earth. He wrote Third World War for Crisis!, a politically-charged spin-off from 2000 AD, and Black Siddha for the Judge Dredd Megazine. Outside 2000 AD he is the writer and co-creator of the long-running classic anti-war story Charley’s War, as well as Marshal Law. He has also written Batman, Star Wars and the Zombie World series for the US market. He co-created the best-selling series Requiem – Vampire Knight for Editions Nickel of France with artist Olivier Ledroit, and a spin-off series, Claudia - Vampire Knight, with artist Frank Tacito.

Perhaps the most widely respected comic writer of the modern era, Alan Moore’s contribution to the comics’ industry is incalculable. Co-creator of some of 2000 AD’s most popular series, including The Ballad of Halo Jones and DR & Quinch, he has also numerous Future Shocks and Time Twisters to his name. Outside of 2000 AD, Moore is best known for his work on the epic comic series, V for Vendetta and Watchmen, the latter of which redefined the superhero genre in 1986. Both have been adapted into big-budget Hollywood movies by Warner Brothers, as have two other Moore books, From Hell and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
