Russ Manning (2) (1929–1981)

MAGNUS, ROBOT FIGHTER 4000 A.D., Volume 1, is a collection of the first seven issues of the fabulous comic which started in 1963. It was created and drawn by the phenomenal Russ Manning. It is now my favorite old-fashioned comic art.
Magnus is the only person on Earth who can fight evil robots; he always wins, and he always has the adoration of his damsel-in-distress girlfriend Leeja. Here he manages to save the world in seven different stories. Also included is a short biography of Manning and some concept art.
Dark Horse, the publisher of this collection, has done a remarkable job in reprinting the comic. It is obvious that they took great care in the printing by using vibrant colors and crisp, clear lines.
