The A.B.C Warriors

The Mek-Nificent Seven

1979

In the future, wars will no longer be fought by men of flesh and blood. Instead, robots march forth into battle, to finish a job left half-done. It is not their war, not their cause, and yet they fight and die for the cause, heroes one and all. Hammerstein: the leader. Joe Pineapples: the ultimate assassin. Blackblood: the traitor. Mongrol: the killer machine. Deadlock: the crazed priest of Khaos. Mek-Quake: the coward. Ro-Jaws: the garbage eater. They are the Mek-Nificent Seven, they are the A.B.C Warriors - atomic, bacterial and chemical war robots, programmed for destruction - and this is their story. Collects: \- ABC Warriors (Prog #119) \- The Retreat from Volgow (Prog #120) \- Mongrol (Prog #121-#122) \- The Order of Knights Martial (Prog #123-#124) \- The Bougainville Massacre (Prog #125-#126) \- Steelhorn (Prog #127-#128) \- Mars, the Devil Planet (Prog #129) \- Cyboons (Progs #130-#131) \- The Red Death (Prog #132-#133) \- Golgotha (Prog #134-#136) \- Mad George (Progs #137-#139) \- The A.B.C.

The A.B.C. Warriors

The Black Hole

2003

Ever-popular 2000 AD and Marshal Law writer Pat Mills, and fan-favourite artist Simon Bisley (Lobo, Batman/Judge Judgment on Gotham) present the return of the A.B.C. Warriors! Hammerstein, Joe Pineapples, Mongrol, Mek-Quake, Blackblood, Deadlock and Ro-Jaws have been summoned by Nemesis the Warlock, a co-zealot in Deadlock’s Khaos-worshipping religion, for a very special task. They must defy the plans of Nemesis’ crazed - and recently deceased - enemy, Tomas de Torquemada - and fight their way past his minions to prevent the end of time itself, and save the galaxy! But, as usual, the Warriors’ idiosyncratic personalities get in the way. Deadlock’s his usual unfathomable self, Blackblood has a knife ready for everyone’s backs, and Hammerstein... well, it seems that Hammerstein’s fallen in love!
