The Kill Lock

In a desolate, machine-dominated world, The Kill Lock (2020–present, IDW) follows four outlaw robots bound by a fatal programming—if one dies, they all do. Created and painted by artist Livio Ramondelli, this sci-fi series explores themes of brotherhood and survival as the mismatched fugitives flee across a hostile, rust-choked landscape. Its stark, painterly visuals and high-stakes premise offer a fresh, character-driven take on mechanical existence.
