A memory of a show struck me the other day, and as I think more about I remember more. It was set in the future, when robots had taken over the world. However, there was a small faction of humans rebelling against the robots. I seem to remember that they had a central base, and the closer you got, the more dangerous it was. I think the colors of the robots had something to to with how strong they were as well. The humans had some kind of machinery, I think they were robotic fighting suits, or airplanes, I'm not sure which. At some point in the plot, one of the MC's friends/relative (maybe a sister) was kidnapped by the robots and made to work with other humans. I think they also kidnapped people to design new robots for them, and there was a side plot of one of the human scientists that didn't want to design new robots. Does anyone know what this show was? It might have also been one of those small paperback "comic books", but I don't think so.
