French YouTube star Cyprien Iov, a.k.a. “Monsieur Dreamâ€â€”blogger, vlogger, podcaster, and animator—delivers his first comic here, with art by Paka. A series of gag strips revolving around the titular robot and the couple who adopt him gradually gains depth and scope, becoming more serious and more moving as a conspiracy narrative develops around Roger, a military deathbot on the lam.
Things look like they might be starting to turn around for thirtysomthing slacker Hugo when he finds a robot in his house on his birthday. But, as he soon discovers, this is no birthday present (no one actually remembered to get him anything)! Rather, it is the handiwork of his cousin, an engineer in the French army, who realized that the robot he had been building was designed to destroy humanity. Forced to hide out with Hugo, Roger – as he decides to call himself – must learn to live with humans… No mean feat!
The first volume of this ongoing series is now available as a digital exclusive from EuropeComics on a number of platforms (Izneo, Kindle, Kobo, Google Play, and Comixology).
