Frank Miller's unproduced screenplays from Robocop 2 and The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus. Sounds great. Like a lot of Avatar's comics, it's full of graphic violence to the point of just being gross. It's full of rampant sexism and T and A. The female police officers get their clothes blown off until they are girls with guns in lingerie. It's ridiculous. Juan Jose Ryp is a fantastic artist now, but back then his art was super detailed, yet, he The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus figured out how to make his characters stand out in each panel. I couldn't tell what was going on in half the pages. The Robocop 3 book at least has coherent story and art. I would only bother with this if you're a huge Robocop fan. View 2 comments. The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus 04, Jon rated it it was ok Shelves: comics-graphicnovels- mangasay-it-with-bulletssci-fi-fantasyopl. Laboriously hamish. Thinly developed. Aggressively sexist and misogynistic. Poorly plotted. I don't care about Frank Miller, and mostly find his dude bro angst tediously gratuitous. His RoboCop has nothing on Verhoeven's remarkable art trash action satire. I know, Miller didn't adapt these graphic novels; only penned the scripts. But these adaptations come off with about the same obnoxious superficiality found in many of Miller's original works-- Batman: Year One is The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus exception. I've never understood why so many like him. Don't think I ever will. He's but a pale imitation of far better artists. Apr 27, Shawn Birss rated it liked it Shelves: fictiongraphica. This heavy volume contains two long format graphic novels illustrated from unproduced screenplays by Frank Miller, and a shorter epilogue set in the same timeline. The two stories are illustrated by different artists. It appears to me by the significant difference in pacing and panel placement between the two stories that the artists were probably also responsible for translating the stories from screenplay to page, as compared to a more traditional comic strip in which the writer would describe This heavy volume contains two long format The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus novels illustrated from unproduced screenplays by Frank Miller, and a shorter epilogue set in the same timeline. It appears to me by the significant difference in pacing and panel placement between the two stories that the artists were probably also responsible for translating the stories from screenplay to page, as compared to a more traditional comic strip in which the writer would describe panels, placement, and sometimes even the size and details of the individual panels. Whether or not this is so, there is a significant difference between the two stories and their methods of storytelling. My judgment is that the first is far superior. The stories fit together as a whole. Anyone who enjoys the first would likely want to read the second. However, the stories are available separately. Since the second isn't essential, if a reader wanted something shorter, I'd recommend only reading The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus first. Both stories are very Frank Miller. They are dark, cynical, pessimistic, violent, cruel, and gratuitous in gore and titillation. As I came to the end of the book, I wondered if the word "sci-fi-sploitation" had ever before been used. Readers familiar with Miller will see a lot they've seen before. There are strong echoes especially of The Dark Knight, especially in The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus first story. Miller does a fantastic job of capturing the spirit and tone of Robocop, as interpreted of course through his unique brand of storytelling. I personally found that the difference between the films Robocop and Robocop 2 - the latter based on Frank Miller's script - to be a jarring swing to the right. Miller loses some, but not all, of the dark satire in the original film, and seems to bring a darker, more conservative perspective to the story. It isn't a worldview I share, but this comic shows him pulling off this change in interpretation better than the films. Fans of Miller and Robocop know what they are likely to find here. This is Miller being Miller, not slumming. The first story is Robocop at its best. The second is passable. Fans of both will enjoy the book. It is unlikely to convince people new to this writer or franchise. View 1 comment. May 07, Michael rated it The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus was ok. Although I love much The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus Frank's work, I can say this book worked for me. It has plenty of satire of corporate toxicity and social trends circabut it's surprisingly light on plot and totally transparent on character. The first part Robocop 2 has some good ideas in it, but not enough character and the art is too busy, cluttering the storytelling with insane detail like a poor man's Geoff Darrow. The second has better art and clearer characters, but lacks the bite of the first. The most f Although I love much of Frank's work, I can say this book worked for me. The most fascinating thing about both stories is the prominence of women characters. Robocop is nearly a cipher, so the main villain and lead protagonist in each narrative winds up being a woman, shadow in the villains' cases but compelling in the heroes' instances, despite the artist's tendency to partially undress her in the first story. I was SO excited to read what I understood to be the Frank-Miller-penned script for Robocop 2, which was turned down for movie-dom because it was "unfilmable" and then made into a comic. There is no part of what is set down there that I find uninteresting. But the book needed some work. It was kinda The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus. The general idea, a rogue Robocop fighting the company that made him, would have made for a great movie. But I'm not real sure about the beats The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus the story. Believe me, if you want to capt I was SO excited to read what I understood to be the Frank-Miller-penned script for Robocop 2, which was turned down for movie-dom because it was "unfilmable" and then made into a comic. Believe me, if you want to capture my interest, tell me something was too violent for 's film. But then you have to deliver something that makes me think, "Yes, agree.
