I was taking it as read that my Robo-Hunter vote is for the *proper* stories ('78-'85) and not any of the reboot nonsense from the 90s.

The art of Dave is doing a lot of heavy lifting [along with some lucky draws] to carry Brigand Doom into round 4.

This for me ^^^^

Halfway through season 2 of Raised by Wolves and I'm beginning to wonder if it's all part of the Alien universe...
