Deathlok Character Review
Deathlok (also referred to as Deathlok the Demolisher) is a fictional (Character) cyborg published by Marvel Comics. He first appeared in Astonishing Tales (Aug. 1974), and was created by Rich Buckler and Doug Moench.
At least three subsequent Marvel characters have used the "Deathlok"
identity since then. A recurring theme among these characters is that a dead human has been reanimated with cybernetic technology. "Deathlok technology" has also been used thematically by Marvel writers in other stories...More about Deathlok Character Review...keep reading !!

Powers and Abilities (Deathlok)
Manning - Col. Luther Manning's body was rebuilt into a cyborg body by Harlan
Ryker. Deathlok's mechanical, cybernetic physiology granted him several
superhuman powers including superhuman strength, stamina, agility,
reflexes, and a computer augmented brain. The right arm and left half of
his face are armored cybernetic implants. He wears a woven metal-mesh
body suit of considerable durability. Deathlok also carried a
helium-neon laser pistol designed by the U.S. Army of his time, and a
throwing dagger.
Manning was a military academy graduate, and a brilliant military
strategist. He is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant, and proficient
with knives, daggers, handguns, and laser pistols.
He was later captured and upgraded by 616's S.H.I.E.L.D. and given
jet boots that allowed him to leap at great heights and his other
abilities were perhaps enhanced to greater levels.
Collins - Michael Collins' human brain was transplanted into a cyborg body by a
group of scientists at Cybertek. His cyborg body grants him the same
powers as Manning, only with much greater strength, speed, and
resistance to injury. He possesses a broad spectrum of visual and
auditory powers. Deathlok has the ability to interface with virtually
any computer system. He is also able to project his consciousness and
sensory projections directly into the Net, making him able to executing a
kind of direct hacking of computer systems far more efficient than a
traditional computer hacking. His body can also target (nearly
infallibly) multiple objects and track them. He could scan the entire
electromagnetic spectrum, as well as enter computer systems. He has
learned to use internal nano-bots to repair and alter both his organic
and inorganic parts, enabling him to appear as either a humanoid cyborg,
or completely human.
He also has a very sophisticated A.I., capable of quickly making
complex strategies and evaluating their chance of success. If requested,
the A.I. can take control of the body to perform these operations.
Collins himself possesses no combat skills, but under computer-guided
combat routines, he is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant with an
extensive database of combat techniques and strategies.
Collins is an excellent computer programmer with an advanced degree
in computer science and prosthetics, and helped construct the Deathlok
body, along with other Cybertek scientists including William Hansen, Ben
Jacobs, Stanley Cross, Dr. Hu, and Jim Dworman. After becoming
Deathlok, Collins later modified his own systems.
Like Manning, Collins wears a woven metal-mesh body suit of
considerable durability. He carries a plasma pistol which draws its
energy from his internal power source. Thus, the weapon can only be
fired if in contact with the outlets in Deathlok's hand. Deathlok also
possesses a collapsible plasma rifle capable of greater firepower with
the same limitations, a supply of fragmentation plasma grenades, and a
molybdenum steel knife. He wears a wrist bracelet that allows Deathlok
to override similar cybernetic operating systems, and an adamantium/vibranium alloy shock dampening helmet. He sometimes uses a refitted Cybertek Dragonfly fighter with a range of several hundred miles.
In Other Media (Film/Movie)
In the early 1990s, a Deathlok film was at the script stage, with screenwriter Randall Frakes. In 2007, a Deathlok feature film was supposedly at the script stage at Paramount Pictures, with screenwriter David Self.
