ROBOCOP: MEMENTO MORI (Frank J. Barbiere / João Vieira)

[Jack]

Pour accompagner la sortie du film RoboCop en février, l’éditeur Boom! Studio publiera quatre comics dont “Robocop: Memento Mori” du scénariste Frank J. Barbiere (Five Ghosts: The Haunting of Fabian Grey) et du dessinateur João Vieira. L’histoire se déroule pendant l’opération chirurgical du policier Alex Murphy alors qu’il se souvient de sa vie passée.

For me, the idea of doing an issue that deals with memory-inside-a-memory was an opportunity to use a lot of really cool imagery. Clearly comics are a wonderful visual medium, so it was an opportunity to use a lot of crazy dream imagery and I think it adds a heightened sense of mystery/fun to the issue. I really wanted to play with confusion, as Alex is a detective and so used to being the man in control, taking him out of his element and simultaneously having his mind being tampered with. I think there’s a lot of fun misdirection and mystery in the issue. It happens quickly, but readers are taken on a fun ride that comes to a logical close.
