CITIZEN REX #2 (OF 6)
Mario Hernandez (W) and Gilbert Hernandez (W/A)
On sale Aug 12 b&w, 24 pages $3.50 Miniseries Water! Electricity! Meat! Tensions are high in our fair city, as the debate over robot rights and human rights turns violent. The return of disgraced, lifelike robot CTZ-RX-Citizen Rex-only throws gas on the fire, though it's not bad news for everybody. It may be the best thing that's ever happened to gossip blogger Sergio Bauntin, whose columns about Rex bring him new levels of notoriety. In this chapter, Rex's secret origin is revealed, along with clues to why he's back, and hints about what the mob has to do with all this. It's Astro Boy meets Mister X by way of David Lynch, as only Los Bros. could do it! 'At an age when artists tend to have settled into refining a successful approach, the Hernandez Brothers are challenging themselves as much as they did a quarter-century ago, and it's a joy to see them freaking out.'-The New York Times
