atomic robot Looks great! The art style is cartoony, vibrant, and the characters are fun, likeable, and most importantly, memorable. The protagonist, the Atomic Robot, was created by Nikola Tesla in the 1920s and has since battled sky pirates, mad scientists, dinosaurs-mad scientists, vampires, and even cowboys. Now, fans can follow him on his latest adventure… becoming a college administrator?
