It is the near-future, which finds Detroit on the brink of collapse. In financial ruin, the city grants the mega-corporation Omni Consumer Products (OCP) control of operating local law enforcement. Patrolman Murphy becomes the 32nd officer to be killed in the line of duty since this takeover, but this tragedy is the opportunity that OCP have been waiting for. From a laboratory emerges a part-man, part-machine with a body of reinforced titanium, it has no memory and a programmed mind. This is ROBOCOP – the future of law enforcement.
