⭐ Issue Number 7 - Dated 24th August, 1991 ⭐
BONE-CRUNCHING KEVLAR-CLAD ISSUE!
"Call them off. This one is personal."
There's no Conan the Barbarian strip in Issue 07, which means slightly more available page count for some of the others. Personally, I like Conan, but the format works better with four serialised works instead of the usual five.
☆ Deathlok: The Brains of the Outfit:
Part Six ☆
Script: McDuffie / Wright | Art: Guice / Wright
First up is Deathlok, who doesn't benefit from the situation much with just seven pages of story.
The human brain that's housed within the cybernetic shell continues to converse with, and attempt to control, its machine parts. In a way, it's like an inner-narrative device but with two different personalities, both of whom have a distinct way of perceiving, interacting, and responding to the world around them (and any threats that arise).
There's a scene that I felt was reminiscent of one in Todd McFarlane's early Spawn comics, but an internet search revealed that Spawn didn't appear on shelves until the following year (May 1992), so the thinking was reversed.
