The Gates of Misery is a brand new, anthology-based horror comic coming soon! The first issue features short tales of terror by Brandon Cronenberg (Antiviral), Steven Kostanski (Manborg), and Jon Knautz (Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer).
This is the version that made the cut lol, I went for a tales from the crypt animated cryptkeeper mixed with the live action version, which is why he his skin is colored tiel or greenish like the animated version.
“I, Robot” was a short story by Eando Binder (Earl and Otto Binder) about a robot named Adam Link who was constructed by Dr. Charles Link. The story was published in Amazing Stories, January 1939. Several sequel stories featuring Adam Link would follow.
Over a decade later, Isaac Asimov’s famous collection of robot tales would be published under the title “I, Robot”. This was over the objections of Asimov who had read the Binders’ story before starting his own robot short story “Robbie”.
Adam Link would show up in two episodes of the sci fi anthology series The Outer Limits and again in the 1990s revival of the show. The illustration is from the January-February 1955 issue of EC Comics’ Weird Science-Fantasy, adapted by Al Feldstein and illustrated by Joe Orlando. Two more Adam Link tales would be featured in subsequent issues of the comic in that same year.
