I wanted to tell a story inside the world I'd already been drawing. Robots, a city, a band that refuses to quit. So I wrote it, drew it, and directed it start to finish… sketch, ink, color, letter. Twenty-four pages.

The first ten went full color. The back half shipped in black and white, which sounds like a budget decision but really I just liked how the ink looked on its own.

Robopolis is where all of this lives… the same robot city from the wider universe, drawn as a place you could actually get lost in. A backdrop that had to hold up whether the panel was a wide establishing shot or a tiny window behind someone's head.

A comic wants to be a physical thing, so I started making it one. Spreads laid out for print, a mural sketched over a real wall, prints, a t-shirt. The story staying on a screen felt like leaving it half-drawn.
