The guns are gone. Old Detroit riots. The politicians rage. Everything is going according to plan. With Killian's undertaking in full effect, RoboCop and Anne Lewis are the only ones who can stop his siege for power.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again (right now, actually), this series is the best version of Robocop since the first movie. It stays true to the story, the characters, and the fans of the original. A lot of fun to read. Read Full Review

    Robocop continues to give readers the nostalgia of the 80's while delivering a gritty, interesting story complimented with truly fantastic artwork! Read Full Review

    As this months chapter closes, we now see that although Killian has been temporarily set back, his plans for Detroit involve far more violence than any moral person could be expected to counteract. The reveal that his plan involves the robbery of some very large (and very familiar) ordinance from OCP sends a shiver down my spine. Its such a shame I now have to put this wonderful RoboCop film on pause for yet another month. Read Full Review

    The ending of this book presents a subtle holy shit moment where the zero gun policy affects RoboCop which made me ask all sorts of questions about the coming events and very excited for the next issue. Read Full Review

    It is starting to feel like my prime directive is gushing over Robocop but I really love this book. Ive read a couple of less-than-glowing reviews for this issue, and at first I was going to come here and defend the book, but on second thought, fuck that. It would be like defending Kraft Singles or Slim Jims, Robocop is consistent, unique, and not trying to be anything else than what it is. This is the best Robocop book we could have ever asked for and Im loving the ride. Read Full Review

    AIPT - John F. Trent Sep 30, 2014

    Robocop #4 is below average. Robocop is able to miraculously escape situations he had been placed in after being beaten down and offering no resistance; there is one sequence which is completely out of place and forced: addressing Lewis' detective exam. The artwork is good and the skull-crushing scene definitely opens the reader's eyes. The story is forced and a retread of the last two books with the only change being the scale of the crimes committed. Read Full Review
