"Robot Archie and the Invaders" delivers a thrilling sci-fi adventure from 1967, featuring the iconic Robot Archie in a story that sees the Sludge — a monstrous entity previously thought destroyed — return stronger than ever after a lightning strike. As it terrorizes Canada and evades the formic acid that once stopped it, Bill Hanley and Rick Slade race to contain the threat, only to discover the Sludge’s new vulnerability to jellyfish stings when it’s lured out to sea. The story, illustrated with bold, energetic artwork by Bill Lacey in every stage of production, stands out as a standout entry in the Lion Annual series.
