Cyboy’s Lost Torso

I’m pretty happy with how this comic turned out (especially with the Dr. Robolshevik part), even though it was a pain in the ass to color (mainly due to my own mistakes). The idea behind this comic comes from this drawing. I noticed part way through coloring that this comic has a very similar color scheme as my other robot-related comic, Bounce Bot. Not as many neons, but a lot of blues and purples nonetheless. I tried a lot of new things with lighting in this comic. I feel like I’m making progress when it comes to coloring, even if it is just baby-steps.

Obviously, this comic owes a huge deal to Astro Boy, a comic character I unrepentantly adore.

Anyway, tell me what you think of this comic by commenting!
