Why Murphy avoids family reunions.
RoboCop #4
Marvel Comics (June, 1990)
“Dead Man’s Dreams” WRITER: Alan Grant PENCILER: Lee Sullivan INKER: Kim DeMulder COLORIST: Steve White LETTERER: Richard Starkings EDITOR: Gregory Wright
RoboCop is looking to bring in Cybex but Nixco is using the altered Kyng to kill him. Cybex is prepared, though, with a cyborg gorilla and his chimpanzee friend. In the end, however, Cybex’s assistant is dead but Cybex is brought in. Not sure what happened to Kyng.
What they got right: Yes, cyborg monkey and chimpanzee should be a given. The fight at the end is pretty good.
What they got wrong: It bothered me that Cybex was the one guy responsible for everything four companies made, but now Delta City was his idea, too? That’s supposed to be the “Old Man”‘s dream.
Recommendation: There are things to like here but I’m really not getting into this story. It might be worth a look, though.
