Ooooh that image
◊ has two killer robots.
I like The Incredibles one better. The robot is actually attacking in it. The trope isn't evil villain robots. It's about robots attacking people.

Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickBoth the Robot Santa and Robot Devil as well as the The Incredibles images are awesome. But... I just got to agree with shimaspawn, the The Incredibles image just looks more like an actual robot as opposed to Ridiculously Human Robot.
You are displaying abnormally high compulsions to over-analyze works of fiction and media. Diagnosis: TV Tropes Addiction.If we were voting, I would vote yes for both. If the votes were more detailed than yes/no, I would vote "harder" for The Incredibles comic. It is better.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.There are some good examples from Magnus Robot Fighter (trying to limit it to particularly violent-looking robots - a lot of covers look like Magnus is just persecuting poor innocent kill-bots):
- Giant Robot from another planet!
- Undersea Think-Rob!
- Beasts of Steel What Terrorize North Am!
- Ever-Growing Monster Robs!
- Buzzsaw Robot of MALEV-6!
- The Micro-Giants!
The '90s Magnus doesn't seem to have any images as much fun as the above.
Jet-a-Reeno!Ooooh, a lot of really great ones! Let's see, suedenim, I really love retrospective look of Magnus but the best one of that set is probably Micro Giants image just because it shows them having the upper hand. My only nitpick with the others is that the term "Robot Fighter" is placing the focus on Magnus rather than the robots themselves. Do you have any comics in the vein of something like "Attack Of Killer Robots From Space"?
I actually own that book, as well as building a robot army and his jetpack novel, and the Art Deco is always really nice. The coloration of the lasers/rays/sic fi beams really stand out for killing humans.
I would not count the Daleks since they aren't robots, theyre more like mechanical vehicles.

I'll see if I can hunt up any other good ones, but Magnus is probably the top go-to comic for evil robot action.
Ah, how could I forget the Metal Men?
- Giant Robot Queen with Melty Action!
- The Gas Gang
- Birthday Cake For a CAnnibal Robot
- one of the classic weirdest comics covers ever.
Other stuff:
