The main character is a cybernetic police officer from Detroit who begins as a human police officer before his murder ultimately transformed him into the cyborg entity by the megacorporation Omni Consumer Products (OCP). Since his 1987 film debut, the RoboCop character and franchise have been exercised through numerous entertainment media, including multiple comic book mini-series and ongoing series. In March 1990, Marvel Comics released the first issue of an ongoing "RoboCop" superhero comic book series based on the
RoboCop (comics) film. The series ran for 23 issues, ending in January 1992. In addition, a one-shot was released in August 1990, reprinting in color the 1987 black and white magazine adaptation of the film. That same month also saw a black and white magazine adaptation of the film sequel "RoboCop 2", as well as a three issue mini-series, printing in color the same contents as the "RoboCop 2" magazine. (The "RoboCop 2" adaptation, as well as the monthly comic, are notable for depicting the same locations, set design and OCP logo as the first film and not the substitute designs/sets seen
