I drew the cover for this year's Comixtalk Year in Review. Can you name all the webcomic robots?

I can't name them all (in fact I can only recognize two: Pintsize and Red Robot) but I can tell you that Eve from Applegeeks is missing, and that's a major loss for any image summary of Webcomix robots.

I suppose that you could say that Hob (from Dresden Codak) or Winslow (Pintsize's chum from QC) and several others are secondary characters and putting them in would have led to overcrowding.

On the whole, I'm not complaining at all.

I didn't include Winslow, because I just got one robot per webcomic. Otherwise, I'd have to draw the entire cast of Diesel Sweeties.

I can only name a few.

FF, ohnorobot robot, Vore, Red Robot, Pintsize, and maybe that is Clango but with a nose behind Pintsize? I feel like I should know the little box/birdlike one in the next to FF.

Not Clango. Look at my guest strips to see who that is.

Suicidal Robot from Niego! No wonder he looked somewhat familiar, other than the almost looking like Clango with a nose.

yes they should! who is that then if its not Eternal soulless robot? i had no idea there where so many robots in comics out there.

also "super amazing drawn only so that Ryan Estrada uses him in his webcomic robots roundup and therefore plug my comics robot 6000" should be in there too... as soon as i get around to drawing him.

I can name a few.

I see Pintsize, Liebot, Red Robot (possibly from exploding dog?), and fruit fucker.

Mmmm, comic bots.

The gray one behind the Oh No Robot is the Emotibot from Beaver and Steve. And the union jack toting robot is Robovend, from Scary Go Round, circa 2003! Golly!

I think that just leaves the bird robot, but I, too, am stumped.

Oh, of course, it is Oh No Robot's stackable sizekick. What happened to one robot per comic (er, website)?

I can only recognize Fruit Fucker, Kleptobot, and maybe one from Scary-Go-Round?
