May 2024 Graphic Novel of the Month
Here’s another awesome new adventure for your favourite robot brothers Alex and Freddy, and the action levels – and the stakes – have never been higher.
Relations between (some) humans and robots are at an all time low, with attacks on robots encouraged by a violent new action group, ‘Humanity First’. Alex and Freddy find themselves caught up in this, but unknown to them the force behind the group is an old enemy, and very dangerous indeed. In early scenes, the brothers are on holiday at the seaside, but things get progressively darker and the final scenes will leave readers desperate for the next instalment.
As ever, this is graphic novel storytelling at its very best, brilliantly drawn, expertly plotted and its robot stars have never felt more human. Mega on every level.

About
Mega Robo Bros: Nemesis Synopsis
Alex and Freddy are just like any other brothers. They squabble and drive their parents mad. BUT . . . they’re also the most powerful robots on earth!
Alex and Freddy are on holiday – a time for rest, relaxation and. . . an urgent robot emergency? The REVOLUTION malware is causing robots across London to attack humans, and Alex and Freddy are caught between their human friends and family, and the desire to help robots like themselves! But who could be behind this nefarious scheme? Before they know what's happening - everything changes.
An old enemy, long-since believed dead, suddenly reappears, and uses his evil powers to take over Freddy's robotic systems - and sends him to destroy London! Can Alex stop his brother - and save him from the corrupting evil power of the villainous Robot 23?
Full of humour, dynamism and exhilarating drama, Nemesis is perfect for fans of Cherub and Skulduggery Pleasant. Big explosions, family drama and two brothers saving the day – again. It’s all part of being a Mega Robo Bro!
