Supercops

I recently came across the "Spectacular Double-Sized Premiere Issue" of Supercops. The series only lasted four issues back in 1990 and followed the NOW Comics formula of combining solid cover art with barely servicable interior art and mixed writing. The idea behind Supercops is probably spoiled a bit by the title--there are these cops, you see, and they're like, Super. Indeed, they're a batch of clones that have been trained since birth to be the ultimate law enforcement operatives--but to keep them from rebelling, they've been given fake memories of happy childhoods and an artificial desire to obey orders. There's actually a passing resemblance to this and Joss Whedon's Dollhouse, as the first issue of Supercops features two of the officers starting to realize their memories aren't real and trying to escape the organization. Anyway, this isn't anything that needs to be memorialized in a $ 75 hardcover archives edition, but I'll let you know if I come across the remaining issues.
