Brewster Rockit: Space Guy! is a satirical, retro-futuristic comic strip that chronicles the (mis)adventures of the lantern-jawed, lunkheaded, and sometimes childlike Brewster Rockit, captain of the space station R.U. Sirius, and his crew of misfits. Under Brewster’s brave and eternally-optimistic leadership, Pam is the tough and pragmatic second-in-command, Cliff is the completely unqualified engineer, Dr. Mel is the scheming science officer, Agent X is the mysterious government agent who gives them their orders and hides their existence from the world, and Winky is the cute, luckless kid who manages to get hurt a lot.

I’m still undecided but my vote might be bought with a couple of raised donuts.

Umm aren’t there 3 laws or something?…

@goalgo
Only if the robot was imagined by Isaac Asimov. And almost as soon as he postulated his “three laws of robotics,” other authors demonstrated they would not work as intended. Late in his life (particularly in “Robots and Empire” and his last “Foundation Trilogy” sequel, “Foundation and Earth”) he too experimented with the logical problems around the three laws.

Donut guy couldn’t full-fill his base without including his 12 cabinet members, known as “The Baker’s Dozen” . . . ☻

Donut’s campaign slogan should have been, Let Them Eat Cake!

Actually, Campbell first expressed the laws in their current form. Asimov had been using the ideas behind them, b ut never thought of formalizing them. And, if you’ll read some of the classic Robot stories, you’ll see that he spent most of his time exploring odd interactions, side effects and corner cases. Unlike most of his characters, he was well aware of how limited they were.
