💎 Don't need a medal, for all the men we kill. 💎

(Steelhorn from ABC Warriors, found within the pages of British anthology comic book 2000 AD, best known for featuring Judge Dredd. Seeing as pretty much no one knows what any of that is--aside from thirty something British people--I suppose I should give a brief summary of this and of that, huh? Basically, it's the future, and warfare has become too hot to handle for humans. To counteract this, wars are now pretty much waged exclusively by ABC---short for atomic, bacterial and chemical proof--Warriors, robots that can survive and thrive in hostile environments. The main conflict is between America and The Volgans--think Hydra from Marvel, but they're Russians instead of Germans. Although, the series mainly follows the exploits of a group seven robots, Steelhorn is among their ranks. Steelhorn is a robot with an indestructible diamond body, considered "the most handsome robot" by many, he's fought against The Volgans for a decade straight, and those long years of service have made him grow sick and tired of all the death and violence. All Steelhorn wants is to lay down his weapons and live his life in peace. To clarify, this is before Steelhorn meets Hammerstein and the others.)
