ATOMIC ROBO AND THE DAWN OF A NEW ERA
Writer: Brian Clevinger
Artist: Scott Wegener
Publisher: IDW Publishing
Release Date: July 2019
Atomic Robo just opened Tesladyne Institute's doors to the next generation of Action Scientists. Meanwhile, an old comrade has an urgent message about the Vampire Dimension (spoiler, it's bad). Bernie is speaking with the Queen of Hollow Earth or just hallucinating. Jury's still out on that one.

Oh, and there's a subplot about Robo's secret robot son. Y'know, remember that old automatic intelligence that nearly killed everyone in the world a few years back? Well...it's fine. Everything's fine!
