It's been a busy year at the movies for robots big and small, from blockbusters like "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" and "Terminator: Salvation" to this week's significantly more tame "Astro Boy." This November, Marvel Comics’ classic, semi-robotic antihero Deathlok heads back to print in a big way, too—with a new seven-issue miniseries from Marvel’s mature label, Max.
Originally created in the '70s by Rich Buckler and Doug Moench, Deathlok is the name adopted by Luther Manning, an American soldier in a post-apocalyptic future who is killed in action then resurrected as an experimental cyborg. And it all happened years before "Robocop."
Marvel has provided Splash Page readers with a preview of "Deathlok" #1, featuring a story by acclaimed novelist Charlie Huston (“Moon Knight”) and artist Lan Medina (“Foolkiller”).
