  Meks & Violence - The History of The ABC Warriors
Like Ro-Busters before it, ABC Warriors carried an anti-authority air hidden in its pages, showing these robot servants voicing distrust and even hatred toward their human masters, something which Mills later took on to Nemesis The Warlock (albeit in a different and more extreme form).
ABC Warriors was meant to be a two artist production, with Kevin O'Neill and Mike McMahon handling the art, but as the series progressed, more artists had to be drafted in to make sure everything was kept on schedule, something which infuriated Mills.
During the initial chapters, The Warriors took on a group of robots known as The Mekaniks in a bloody battle (graphically illustrated by Bisley), and captured a human female in the shape of Terri.

 Chris Webber Set to Return to Warriors|ABC 7 News
The five-time All-Star isn't expected to join the Warriors during a two-game road trip this week to Houston and New Orleans, said an NBA source who spoke on condition of anonymity because Webber hadn't formally signed with the club.
Nelson apparently masterminded the Warriors' decision to re-sign Webber, who hasn't played in the NBA this season, as a backup big man and offensive playmaker.
Webber was acquired by the Warriors in 1993 in a draft-day trade with Orlando, which made him just the second sophomore to be the draft's top pick.

 Joe Pineapples
Like all ABC Warriors, he is immune to atomic, biological and chemical weapons; being a robot, he does not age, nor need to breath, eat or drink.
After a while the human soldiers gave way to robots, the ABC Warriors, so dubbed because they were immune to the atomic, biological and chemical weapons used by both sides.
The Warriors split up after the Hekate mission, and seeking employment Joe became a hit droid for the Terran Empire; enjoying his new life, he was a less than willing recruit when the Warriors reformed to attack the Terran vessel Hellbringer.

 ABC News: Warriors Scorch Suns
The Warriors could have been exhausted after returning from a highly successful East Coast road trip that included four wins during five games in seven days.
Jackson got a raucous ovation when he was introduced in the Warriors' starting lineup after sitting out the first seven games including five at home under suspension for legal troubles back in Indiana.
Notes:@ The Warriors also scored 45 points in the first quarter of the Suns' last visit to Oakland in March.

 The writings of Pat Mills
The ABC warriors saga started with a series called Robo-busters (which originated in the short lived 'Starlord' that merged with 2000AD in Prog 86, Progs 86-101,103-115) involving two robots Hammerstein, an old war droid and Ro-Jaws, an sewer droid.
The Warriors were visiting Gandarva, the home world of Nemesis, to where the Warlock had returned to lick his wounds, and they found that he had abandoned any pretence of heroism.
ABC warriors first appeared in 1979, the occassional series since in 1987, 1991-1992, 1996, 2000-2001.

 Student Book World - The A.B.C. Warriors: The Black Hole (2000 AD Presents)
This book is sort of abstracted from much of the ABC warriors as a reader of early 2000AD might know them, but does tie in with the Nemesis storyline and is a nice addition to those stories.
For those not in the know the ABC Warriors are a band of war-robots of varying ages (centuries in all cases) seemingly destined to fight for causes that aren't there own for eternity- the ABC stands for Atomic, Bacterial, Chemical- they are resistant to all three forms of assault.
The artwork brought ABC Warriors to a new level back in '87 and it is still staggeringly good- two artists drew this book.

 Panthers punish homesick Warriors - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
The Warriors succumbed to their fifth loss from as many matches on the road in which they have leaked an astonishing 214 points.
The Panthers made the Warriors pay for a string of handling and discipline errors, piling on eight tries to four in a match that showed off Penrith's attacking ability as much as the visitors' horrible defensive frailties.
Warriors prop Ruben Wiki recognised the dominance of the Panthers' pack and his side's disappointing form on the road.

ABC WARRIORS: KHRONICLES OF KHAOS TPB and ASYLUM TPB
ABC WARRIORS follows the antics of a robot tribe dedicated to spreading the gospel of Kaos across the galaxy--the aptly named ABC Warriors.
This was my first introduction to the ABC Warriors, and I don't plan on letting it be my last; it turns out that the ABC Warriors have had many other adventures, and Warrior Hammerstein even had a cameo in the Judge Dredd movie.

 ABC Warriors: the Khronicles of Khaos - 2000 AD Review
This last part is achieved by exposing the warriors to a huge variety of weirdness that exists on Hekate.
The thing with the ABC Warriors is, that once they've been introduced, they're pretty much characters with very set personalities - so there's not always a huge amount of story to tell with them.
He's a great choice for the Warriors, mostly because he's prepared to invest a lot of time and paint in providing a lot of great pin-up shots of the seven (eight) heroes.

The Chinese terra cotta warriors are just as impressive, but when the Bowers Museum opens on May 18, it will be truly eye opening.
A thousand warriors and other figures have been uncovered and there may be 7,000 more, no two alike.
They call the warriors "the 8th wonder of the ancient world," but you really have to see the terra cotta warriors in person to truly appreciate them.

 Roosters bombard woeful Warriors - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
The Warriors had lost only one game in their last 10 on Kiwi turf, but could not shrug their horrific recent form on the road as the Roosters ran in seven tries to two in a ominous display.
Warriors captain Steve Price made a long-awaited comeback after a hamstring injury but admitted it was a disappointing return.
The home side hit back to make it 14-4 when Aiden Kirk grabbed his maiden NRL try only for their good work to be undone by the game's fifth try in just over 20 minutes when a Pearce chip resulted in a four-pointer for Setaimata Sa.

Follow up to the excellent ABC Warriors Black Hole story, this has nice artwork, but is just tries desperatly hard to be funny and fails badly (aliens who vomit on people as a greeting, etc).
Out to infect the Terran empire with Khaos, Deadlock leads the ABC Warriors (with the addition of the charming Morrigun) on a mission to sacrifice seven figureheads of Order.
If you've never read this but know the early ABC Warriors material then be prepared for a couple of surprises in the transformations of key characters under the influence of Khaos.

 Rookie Rabbitohs run over Warriors - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
The victory was the Rabbitohs' first against New Zealand since 1999 while also denying the Warriors back-to-back wins after they clinched their first away win of the season last week.
Souths prop Luke Stuart made the Warriors pay when he crossed to equal the ledger once again before a four-pointer to Ben Lowe and the trusty boot of Sandow guided the Rabbitohs to a match-winning lead with seven minutes to play.
Sandow added the icing with a field goal in the dying stages to condemn the Warriors to their second consecutive loss at home.

"It was creator and writer Pat Mill's ABC Warriors which continued a cycle of stories he had begun in Starlord Weekly, a companion publication to 2000AD and which was later to merge with it.
Despite his vivid imagination, Pat Mills soon exhausted suitable disasters from which to have humes (humans) rescued, so he completed this phase of the series with a stunning multi-part story, The Terrmeks, which was superbly drawn by Dave Gibbons...
The ABC Warriors were set chronologically before Ro-Jaws and Hammerstien had met and features only the latter from Ro-Busters in stories set in his military past...

Now it falls to the A.B.C. Warriors - the meanest, toughest squad of war-droids ever to stalk the battle-zones of Future Earth.
In this classic story, written by Pat Mills (Marshal Law, A.B.C. Warriors, Judge Dredd), and fully painted by Simon Bisley (Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgment on Gotham, A.B.C. Warriors), Ukko the dwarf tells of how Sláine came to be crowned High King of Tir-Nan-Og...
This is the first installment in the saga of Sláine Mac Roth, warrior of the Sessair, as he travels through Tir-Nan-Og with his dwarf companion Ukko, confronting dark gods and darker mortals at every turn, protected by his mastery of the ‘Warp Spasm’, a frenzy that makes him an even mightier opponent...

 2000 AD Review - ABC Warriors - The Meknificent Seven
The Warriors weren't my first encounter with the Galaxy's Greatest, but they were one of the most memorable and they've remained firm favourites ever since.
Of the two, Ezquerra seems least comfortable on the strip and his art here certainly doesn't bear comparison with the work he was doing on Strontium Dog at the time.
Mills has revisited Mars in his more recent Warriors stories, and while they crackle with ideas, they lack the focus and emphasis on simple storytelling of these earlier tales.
