New Comic: We The Robots!
What's going on in We The Robots by Chris Harding? A line from Flight of the Conchords might sum it up best:
"Finally, robotic beings rule the world."
When I think of a world ruled by robots I picture the harsh, war-torn landscapes of the Terminator or Matrix movies. Chris Harding's not buying into that. His robots have replaced people in every sense, engaging in mundane workplace conversations, locking themselves in traffic jams and feeling discouraged about life in general, just like the humans used to. But, of course, there's something about a robot that makes depression much funnier.
You'll see new strips approximately three times a week and you'll like them, because Harding is very clever and demonstrates great insight into robo-despair. This is due to the fact that he is a robot himself.*

Wow. This is an awesome comic strip and it has a lot of potential. I'm glad someone discovered this guy because his work is great. I like the simple yet elegant art style because it really fits the strip by nature. The writing is exemplary, and very, very funny. Seriously, why are we just finding out about this one now? Great strip, great cartoonist. Thanks for putting it on GoComics.
