One of the more delightfully odd partnerships in comics is Big Guy and Rusty, the Boy Robot. Created by Geof Darrow and Frank Miller, this futuristic romp once inspired a remarkable Saturday morning cartoon series back when that was where cartoons lived.
Along with Steve Parkhouse’s Resident Alien, Brendon McCathy’s Dream Gang, Jimmy Palmiotti, Justin Gray and Andy Kuhn’s Wrestling With Demons Damon Gentry and Aaron Conley’s Sabertooth Swordsman, and David Mack’s Kabuki, Big Guy and Rusty, the Boy Robot will appear in the first issue of the revamped, 48-page Dark Horse Presents in August.
