About the series
A charmingly retro sci-fi romance, Chester 5000 debuted from IDW in 2023 as a single-issue comic. It follows a woman who, in the 1950s, builds a robot lover to fill a void in her marriage, exploring themes of intimacy and technology. The series is best known for the work of creator Jess Fink, whose signature style blends vintage aesthetics with heartfelt, adult storytelling. This compact, self-contained story matters as a modern take on the classic "pin-up meets robot" genre, offering a sweet and quirky standalone tale.
