ABC Warriors

The ABC Warriors is the seminal British comic fiction by Pat Mills, first published in 2000 AD. It follows seven sentient war robots — each built to withstand atomic, bacterial, or chemical attack — as they are assembled into a team and thrust onto missions across a chaotic future galaxy. The story centers on Atom, Buster, and their fellow warriors as they evolve from weapons of war into a fiercely loyal found family. Blending gritty pulp adventure with dark humor and satire, the saga spans decades of in-universe history, including battles against warlords, alien threats, and political conspiracies. Originally serialized in 2000 AD starting in 1979, it remains one of British comics' most enduring works.
