Trouble Magnet #1
In "Saving the Galaxy," DC's Trouble Magnet #1 introduces Witlock, the first thinking AI rescue robot, whose heroic past on the Moon sets the stage for a high-stakes present in Las Vegas. When a roller coaster disaster threatens children, Witlock steps in—only to be undone by a failed stunt from Dr. Chambers' robot-exoskeleton. With his memory mainframe stolen by the Three Faceless Goons, Witlock is left without his mind, forcing a desperate race to reclaim what makes him who he is. Written by Ryder Windham and brought to life by Kilian Plunkett’s dynamic art and inks, with colors by Chris Chuckry and letters by Willie Schubert, the cover by Kilian Plunkett captures the moment of crisis with striking intensity.
