This book gave me major deja vu. I feel like I read or watched this or something very similar to it, but maybe it was just the robots from the game Stray it reminded me of. The art is very detailed, looking like digital painting in every comic with more shading and such than most American style comics I've read. Each robot is protagonist is vastly different from the others, in both looks and personalities, and you get to learn the history of robot society through their vastly different backstories. It did get a little confusing for me at times, but the main story following the four robots remained interesting right until the end, and definitely ended in a way I did not expect and that also didn't feel contrived.

Four robots from four different classes and life found themselves bound together by a programming link called the Kill Lock. A criminal sentence that means, if one dies, they all die!
Gorgeous art, brilliant story, and absolutely engaging characters! I did not expect to love it this much. So so so well created! Go read it...now.
