The 11th Commandment Law regulated the appearance of robots. It got the name “11th Commandment” from a political pundit who paraphrased it in biblical terms… the name stuck, and the law eventually passed, forever changing how robots were to be made. From then on, only pleasurebots were allowed to be able to pass for human.

Sorry for the break week, folks. I’ve had a rough couple of weeks and it’s all caught up with me.
On the up side, this obviously isn’t the norm – and I’m dedicated enough to want to give you something, so here’s a little more concept art.
We’ll be back next week with more background and robot zombie goodness. Of course, I will add this sketch to the gallery soon.
You may remember something about the “Eleventh Commandment” law. There will be more about it later, but this is also on that topic…
A delivery that may never make it to its destination…
After the Collapse, some zombots still tried to fulfill their programmed functions even after they were infected. While it could be fairly easy to distinguish between infected and uninfected robots, it was always incredibly difficult to know whether the infected would ever become violent.
A bit of a glimpse of what is coming…
Yes, I’m still playing a bit with the layout and format, things like fonts and style. I think I dig on these fonts, more than the previous fonts – what do you think? This comic took longer to make than I expected – next week, I think I’ll have a much more intricate piece…
Robots were so common that even criminals used them to commit crimes. Doing so often required special programming and disguising the robot to pass for human, as everyone knew a robot couldn’t hurt a human.

The problem has been fixed. That is all.
6/23 edit:
THERE APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM.
WordPress updated automatically and seems to have hidden the actual comics – Soooo I’m still working out bugs. – sorry.
Robots were common enough that people actually sold them on eBay, and the robots were often smart enough that they could travel to their new owners using public transportation. On the other hand, buying robots on eBay often meant you had to accept whatever packages were already installed on the robot. For some, that simply wasn’t an issue.
**Edit 6/23:
Doing some clean up – sadly the original post was lost.
Ahh, the crazy things that happen while I’m learning a new system.
An advertisement from Neobots, one of the leaders in multi-purpose robot manufacturers…
UPDATE 7-Jun:
For some reason, some computers are not showing this update’s image. If you can’t see it, let me know, then possibly try a different computer.
Additionally, I’ve had a few people contact me for the working version of this advert! I didn’t expect such a great reaction, so I guess I’m going to have to figure that out… eventually.
UPDATE 8-JUN:
HA! Take that, Aleric. Note to self: never name a file “advert” because ad-blockers will just block the image.
Silly me… ENJOY!
Zombots has a starting point, and this is that point.
It isn’t pretty, though few beginnings actually are. Right now, Zombots is a stealth project, something I’m putting together just for all you special people who might have heard about it.
I will be adding art, sketches and background. When Zombots does launch, it will be with more backup than HHFM did.
I hope you all enjoy it.
