"As mighty as those two bricks you could never pry apart."
—The main tagline

Between the MSpaint visuals, screwy concepts, and frequent Refuge in Vulgarity, you'd be forgiven for viewing Plastic Brick Automaton as anything but the work of a madman, but look past the stick-figures and rape jokes, there are some moments of true absurdist genius.
Originally named Lego Robot comics, the name was later changed for unknown reasons.
