Are we going to cover Warbot? I would prefer we did, and I can see that the first episode was put up, so I assume we will; however, I figured asking was safest.
Also, should we redirect the new titles of the Atomic Robo pages to the titles they had as Interludes to 8BT? They all appeared adjacent, so they'd have the same next/previous pages.

I believe we should cover Warbot since it is one of those other works by Brian Clevinger and there is no harm not doing.
As for the Atomic Robo, again I can't see why not.

I'd say we should move Warbot and possibly Atomic Robo to their own list script pages. The reason for this is that Warbot seems to be Nuklear Power exclusive, while Atomic Robo really is only a interlude (and possibly advertising). Also, when we cover the Atomic Robo interludes, the new names win out. Using the older names will make us seem outdated in my opinion.

So then we redirect the other way around?

What about 8BT's next and previous? It includes interludes, and sending the reader over to another series entirely could be counter-intuitive.

They have only released one comic, we should probably wait a while and see if it goes anywhere. Exdeath64 07:08, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Might as well reuse a thread than make a new one....I dunno, but is it me, or do you guys find the comics to be increasingly depressing?

I can't say I'm a fan of it, myself.

I can see the humor. Seems like it's supposed to be a sort of situational comedy. I laughed a little for the first two and the last one. The dating one was a drag, though. Brian and Zack were on Twitter about how epic it would be, but that one was a total let-down.

I've never liked sitcoms.

Y'know, 8BT is technically a sitcom, as are most cartoons and comics these days. The difference with Warbot is that his "situation" just isn't as funny.

I've probably got a good explaination as to why that is. In 8-Bit Theater, the characters have all got varying and different personalities ranging from the hapless Garland to the comically evil Black Mage. With Warbot all the personalities are a bit flat. Neither Warbot nor his workmates have a particularly in-depth personality. Also the grey-scale of the Warbot comics compared to the colourful 8-Bit comics don't help its case either.
