Frank Miller's Robocop


Book Description

Robocop was one of the truly great bits of movie and pop culture magic from the 1980s, and Frank Miller wanted to deliver a masterpiece with his original movie script, but Hollywood massively edited his work. In full-on action, the Robocop story is told as Frank Miller always intended, composed straight from the master's original writings and scripts! The vast majority of Miller's insane ideas, vicious black humor and robotic mayhem never made it to the screen, but every last bit is finally unleashed in this series! With sequential adaptation from Steven Grant and art by superstar Juan Jose Ryp, this sci-fi epic is not to be missed!

Following the destruction of its original entity, OCP has risen again, appropriated by a new tech startup and fashioned into a mobile app called OCPolice, allowing citizens to report any crime they see fit...and profit from it. Though the elite of Detroit have created what seems like a utopia, the poor and downtrodden pay the price, and they’ve had enough. They just need their champion, but the only question is: What happened to Alex Murphy? Written by visionary author Brian Wood (DMZ, Star Wars) and illustrated by Jorge Coelho (Venom, Loki), RoboCop: Citizens Arrest is the next chapter in the epic cult-favorite saga--a gripping modern dissection of government overreach and the slippery slope of privacy in the digital age.
