Writer: Steven Grant Artist: Hoang Nguyen Inker: Art Nichols Colorists: Chris Chalenor, James Sinclair, & Penny Zemaitis Letterer: Clem Robins Editors: Dan Thorsland & John Weeks All Covers by: Nelson The third chapter of the RoboCop films explodes onto the comics page! OCP -- the company responsible for Officer Murphy's transformation into RoboCop -- is planning to build a grand new community of the future on the ashes of Old Detroit, and perhaps a few of its current residents as well! Will RoboCop follow the orders of the OCP and drive the defenseless citizens of Detroit from their homes? Story/Spoilers: In issue #1, When a gang of criminals calling themselves Splatterpunks start making things difficult for the OCP developers, RoboCop finds himself drawn into the struggle. Will RoboCop follow the orders of the OCP and drive the defenseless citizens of Detroit from their homes? Don't count on it! With the help of Nikko, a young computer genius, RoboCop takes on the forces of OCP in an inner-city battle to the death! Next in issue #2, It's a sad day in Delta City when Officer Lewis, RoboCop's trusted friend and longtime partner, is shot by OCP's hired goons. Framed for the murder, the badly damaged cyborg is taken in by the Delta City underground, the very organization he was commanded to stop. Surrounded by uneasy allies and traitors, RoboCop sets out to avenge Anne Lewis and save the innocent citizens of Detroit from the corporation that created him. Finally in issue #3, The explosive conclusion to the comic adaptation of the hit film! RoboCop and the Detroit Police take a stand against the terrorist tactics of OCP and their Rehab officers, to help the innocent victims of Delta City save their homes. It's a heavy-metal showdown in the streets -- and in the OCP boardroom -- riddled with suspense, action, intrigue, and plenty of firepower! Story Synopsis: In the near future, Omni Consumer Products (OCP) is on the verge of bankruptcy and are now struggling with their plans to create the new Delta City. To speed up the process, OCP creates an armed force called the Urban Rehabilitators ("Rehabs" for short), under the command of Paul McDaggett (John Castle). Ostensibly its purpose is to combat rising crime in Old Detroit, augmenting the ranks of the Detroit Police in apprehending violent criminals. In reality, it has been set up to forcibly relocate the residents of Cadillac Heights, killing some of them (including the parents of Nikko, a Japanese-American computer whiz kid) in the process. The police force is gradually superseded by the Rehabs, and violent crime begins to spiral out of control. The Delta City dream of the former OCP CEO, "Old Man", lives on with the help of the Japanese zaibatsu Kanemitsu Corporation, which has bought a controlling stake in OCP. Kanemitsu (Mako) sees the potential in the citywide redevelopment and moves forward with the plans to remove the current citizens. The company develops and uses its own ninja androids (called "Otomo") to help McDaggett and the OCP president (Rip Torn) overcome the resistance of anti-OCP militia forces. RoboCop (Burke) and partner Anne Lewis (Allen) try to defend civilians from the Rehabs one night, but Lewis is mortally wounded by McDaggett and eventually dies. Unable to fight back because of his "Fourth Directive" programming, RoboCop is saved by members of a resistance movement composed of residents from Cadillac Heights (of which Nikko has also become a part) and eventually joins them. Due to severe damage sustained in the shoot-out, RoboCop's systems efficiency plummets, and he asks the resistance to summon Dr. Lazarus, one of the scientists who created him. Upon arrival she begins to treat him, deleting the Fourth Directive in the process. During an earlier raid on an armory, the resistance picked up a jet-pack prototype, originally intended for RoboCop's use, which Lazarus modifies and upgrades to hold RoboCop. After recovering from his injuries, RoboCop conducts a one-man campaign against the Rehabs. He finds McDaggett and attempts to subdue him, but McDaggett is able to escape. McDaggett then obtains information from a disgruntled resistance member (Stephen Root) regarding the location of the resistance fighters' base. The Rehabs attack and most of the resistance members are either killed or taken prisoner. Nikko escapes with Lazarus before the doctor is captured and taken to OCP headquarters. RoboCop returns to the rebel base to find it abandoned. One of the Otomo ninjabots then arrives and attacks him. RoboCop experiences another power drain and his side-arm is destroyed, but eventually he is able to overcome his opponent with his arm-mounted gun. Meanwhile Nikko infiltrates the OCP building and assists Lazarus in broadcasting an improvised video, revealing OCP's responsibility for the criminality in the city and implicating them in the removal and termination of the Cadillac Heights residents. The broadcast causes OCP's stock to plunge, driving the company into ruin. Meanwhile, McDaggett decides to execute an all-out strike against Cadillac Heights with the help of the Detroit police department, but the outraged police officers refuse to comply and instead defect to the resistance, escalating it into a full-scale war between the Detroit residents and P.D and OCP. As a result, McDaggett turns to hiring street gangs and hooligans to assist with his plans. Having heard Lazarus's broadcast, RoboCop takes to the air using the jetpack. As the combined forces of the Rehabs and street gangs are about to wipe out the rebels and Detroit Police, RoboCop mounts an aerial assault on the attackers, leading to their defeat. He then proceeds to the OCP building and confronts the waiting McDaggett. RoboCop is then attacked, and nearly defeated, by two Otomo robots. Nikko and Lazarus succeed in reprogramming them using a wireless link from a laptop computer, however, forcing them to attack each other. This triggers a self-destruct sequence, forcing RoboCop to flee with Nikko and Lazarus. The flaming discharge from the jetpack immobilizes McDaggett, leaving him to perish in the blast. As Old Detroit is being cleaned up, Kanemitsu arrives and confronts RoboCop and his group, while his translator (Doug Yasuda) tells the OCP president on Kanemitsu's behalf that he is fired. Kanemitsu then bows to RoboCop. The deposed OCP president turns to RoboCop and says: "Well, I gotta hand it to ya. What do they call you? Murphy, is it?" RoboCop replies: "My friends call me Murphy. You call me RoboCop." Featuring amazing RoboCop art on all the covers by Nelson. Awesome!!! (see the scans) Comics lot contains: RoboCop 3 {Movie Adaptation} (1993) Issues #1-3.
