Deathlok the Demolisher: The Complete Collection #[nn]

In "The Enemy: Us!", Deathlok races to save his old army buddy Mike Travers from the clutches of Major Simon Ryker—only to see him taken again. When he returns for Mike, he's met with a shocking revelation: War-Wolf, a cyborg warrior, claims to be Mike’s mind trapped in a machine, and Ryker insists he’s the only one who can save him.

In "Dead Reckoning!", Deathlok confronts War-Wolf, torn between stopping the threat and fearing he’s fighting the mind of his fallen comrade, Mike Travers. When told Mike died on the operating table—though the truth is far more complicated—he finally fights with everything he has, emerging broken and battered. After the battle, he returns to his wife, whose shock at seeing his cyborg form shatters him, only to learn a startling truth: he has a son.

In "Five to One, Deathlok... ...One in Five... No One Here Gets Out Alive!", Deathlok moves through a desolate landscape with one goal: find Major Simon Ryker and end him. Meanwhile, Ryker unleashes his forces—including a super-tank driven by Nina’s mind linked to his omni-computer—into the field, setting up a deadly confrontation. The story builds to a tense stand-off where no one walks away unscathed.

In "The Soft Parade... ...of Slow, Sliding Death!", Deathlok fights through Ryker's forces and dismantles the mind-controlled super-tank powered by Nina, while Mike Travers breaks free from captivity and begins his own desperate search for the cyborg. The tension builds as the line between man and machine blurs in a world where survival means confronting both enemies and the cost of what it means to be alive.

In "Twice Removed from Yesterday...", Mike Travers confronts Deathlok, only to reveal a shocking truth: he married Deathlok’s wife six months prior. The cyborg spares Mike’s life, bound by a twisted sense of gratitude, before tracking a mobster who may hold the key to the surgeon who turned him into a machine—only for the man to escape into a waiting helicopter.

In "The Man Who Sold the World!", Deathlok follows a dying mobster’s final confession, chasing a cryptic lead that could reveal the doctor behind his transformation—only to find himself still entangled in a web of surveillance and deception. As Mike Travers believes he’s rescued Nina Ferry, her connection to the Omni-Computer remains active, and their every move is being monitored by the relentless Major Ryker.

In a desperate bid to escape, Deathlok’s bionic arm is blown off by an explosive, leaving his body severely damaged. Rescued by Mike Travers and rebuilt by the CIA, he’s reprogrammed to stop the menace of Simon Ryker—the Savior Machine. Now driven by a new purpose, Deathlok hunts Ryker, only to face a shocking twist: a second Luther Manning clone, bearing the mind of the surgeon who first forged him. With this unexpected ally, Deathlok risks everything by plunging his consciousness into the Omni-Computer to confront Ryker’s mind directly.

In "...And Once Removed from Never," Deathlok’s desperate mind-swap with Simon Ryker fractures reality in unexpected ways—trapping Ryker’s consciousness in both his own clone and Deathlok’s body. With the immediate threat neutralized, Deathlok finds himself entangled in a new mission for the CIA, while Teresa Devereaux attempts to restore balance. But when the fix goes awry, the line between man and machine blurs beyond repair.

In the aftermath of a collapsed mission, Deathlok encounters the enigmatic Godwulf beneath the earth, leading to a sudden and mysterious disappearance that tricks the CIA into believing the cybernetic agent is dead—shutting down the operation and halting the transcripts that once tracked him.

In "Day of the Demolisher!", Deathlok—his mind hijacked by the Fixer and Mentallo—is turned into a weapon against the nation’s most powerful figure: President-elect Jimmy Carter, at his inauguration. As the F.F. and Fury race to stop him, the line between soldier and assassin blurs in a high-stakes race against time.

In the Power of the Piranha! finds the Thing and Alicia en route to England with Deathlok in tow when a sudden detour leads them to aid Namor in fending off a swarm of piranha—unusual in both number and ferocity. With danger rising from the water and tempers flaring, the trio must work together before the situation spirals out of control.

In "null," Dr. Kort frees Deathlok from Mentallo’s control, prompting Fury to arrive and take the cyborg to SHIELD. Meanwhile, Nighthawk’s company discovers a strange rock containing a trapped alien—once freed, the being, despite his monstrous appearance, steps in to help Thing and Nighthawk rescue children from a burning building.

In "Future Shock!", Cap and Luther face off against Deathlok in a clash that takes a sudden turn when Luther’s touch awakens the cyborg’s lost memories of his humanity. With the Brand Corporation closing in, the two are pulled into the future by the enigmatic Godwulf, leaving their fate uncertain.
