Attaboy

By Tony McMillen. Published by Mad Cave. 

Softcover, 88 pages, Colour, 2024. 

Boy robots. Fallen fathers. Evil motherboards.
Do we ever stop playing the games we played as children?

"There's a video game from when I was a kid that no one else seems to remember."
Attaboy is an action-adventure comic disguised as an illustrated instructional booklet for a video game. The "byte"-sized hero is forced to avenge the destruction of his father and creator, Dr. Atta, by the sinister rebellious mechazoid Motherboard. However, the turn of each page unravels a much deeper story of pixelated thoughts, real world references, and heartbreaking truths.
