VERY FINE/NEAR MINT Part man. Part machine. All cop. The future of law enforcement! Dynamite Entertainment proudly presents the dynamic debut of Robocop by writer Rob (Cla$$war) Williams and artist Fabiano (MARVEL ZOMBIES VS. THE ARMY OF DARKNESS) Neves! Under two awesome covers - one by the sensational Stephen (Wolverine) Segovia and the other by Dynamite's newest up and coming sensation (and the pupil of artist David Finch) Johnny D! - Dynamite goes back to basics as it unveils the dystopian, deeply satirical, and all-out violent world of Robocop. This is ROBOCOP continuing the stories from the first movie. This is ROBOCOP combining the conspiracy theory mystery of ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN, following on from Paul Verhoeven's original by mixing high action, extreme violence and satire. Plus: the return of ED-209!

BONUS REVIEW by Jimmy PS Hayes
AWESOME is the only word to describe Dynamite’s Robocop #1!!! EVERYTHING that was great about the first Robocop film is here! Violence! Humor! Violence! Violence! And, there’s also a fair amount of violence in the book. One of the things that I MOST enjoyed about the book was they didn’t try to tone down anything about the property to appeal to kids or teens. While the book is totally accesable to new readers, it doesn’t try to recap the premise of the property for the whole first issue, or even the first few pages. You get a 1 paragraph intro on the inside front cover and that’s all you need!!! Bottom line-BUY THIS BOOK!!!! It’s one of the best times that I’ve had reading a comic in a LONG TIME.
