Magnus Il Nemico Dei Robot

I've always liked the concept of Magnus Robot fighter. More relevant today then ever.
Only have one book of his..
I'd like to collect the original Goldkey books one day.


I liked what Valiant did with him up until 1992. I really don't like the Gold Key stuff and I detest what they did at Valiant after 1992. Overall, I'm not a fan of the character, but he can be written well. The comic above is Italian.

I always loved the Gold Key issues especially with the Russ Manning artwork. I always figured that this character would make it to the movies first as they would not be too much CGI needed for Magnus, only for the robots.

Gold Key Magnus isn't horrible, but it was very simplistic. I preferred the more updated take on it that Jim Shooter did.

This is a comic I got in a long box of comics that I bought for about $30...

Adventure Comics #256


Origin of Green Arrow by Kirby. I think it's a cool book.

The first few seasons of Babylon 5 was the best, The rest are good, I have the Ultimate Collection (i had to get it from the UK) was hard to find for a time. Still getting through the set Lol. I did watch it back in the 90's. Would love to see it re-done today.
Sadly some of those lead actors are lost to us now.

I watched the first episode and wasn't very impressed. By the time I watched it again a year later, I was hooked and it only got better. I still missed a lot of episodes because I don't watch a lot of TV.

I think a dealer threw this in with some other purchase I made.
I appreciate it for what it is, but I don't remember ever reading it. I liked Mister Miracle. I never cared at all for Kamandi.

A scanner scans reflective surfaces as black. I wanted a good image of
what this comic looks like for my Continuity Comics checklist. This is a
photograph with a tripod holding the camera aimed straight down.
