About The Book

Boy robots. Fallen fathers. Evil motherboards.
Do we ever stop playing the games we played as children?


"There's a video game from when I was a kid that no one else seems to remember."
Attaboy is an action-adventure comic disguised as an illustrated instructional booklet for a video game. The "byte"-sized hero is forced to avenge the destruction of his father and creator, Dr. Atta, by the sinister rebellious mechazoid Motherboard. However, the turn of each page unravels a much deeper story of pixelated thoughts, real world references, and heartbreaking truths.

About The Author

Tony McMillen makes comic books as well as some books without pictures too. Even though those usually also contain a few pictures. He can't help himself. He's behind the heavy metal horror novel An Augmented Fourth published by Word Horde, the sci-fi fantasy graphic novel Lumen and now Serious Creatures; his comic book series about a teenage special fx artist working in Hollywood, riding the wave of practical effects that carried the blockbuster movie industry of the 70s, 80s and 90s.

A masterful blend of action and emotional depth.

– Kirkus Reviews

You can spot a Tony McMillen comic a mile away—raw, vibrant, one cannot look away. Now here comes Attaboy, sprung from the inky forehead of Zeus, fully realized and ready to do some damage.

Tony McMillen is a truly inspiring artist for me. The immediacy, energy, and vitality in his drawings are unmatched and the amount and quality of ideas that come with his stories always brings me joy.
