  Writer Brian Wood's dialogue once again feels like it's ripped right off of Fox News broadcasts. It's chilling when presented in this light, as these white people paint RoboCop and the other residents of the Ruins in such a harsh and menacing light when they're only trying to live their lives.

This hits in the same way the original RoboCop film did years ago. Read Full Review

The art is spotty, some decent panels but rough, pencil heavy yet "smeary" art actually takes me out of the story at points.  Read Full Review
