《Alexander Creed: Re-Life》Chapter 65: Mechanical +
Advertisement
As much as Alexander is unsophisticated with his way of doing things, his status as a chaos butterfly is bound to affect a lot of things, whether he likes it or not.
As Milla's presence influenced him in some way, he also happens to influence her. The butterfly effect is all about causality after all.
It would seem that his influence just happen to spur the little girl into following her passion in a much more determined and earlier manner.
As for how it would change the trajectory that past-future Milla Jovovich had gone through, it was up for the new future to get an accurate grasp on it.
For now, they are still in Creed Comics' little boss office and preoccupied with the things on their minds.
Milla's thoughts were on getting silly revenge for getting ignored by her friend but it mostly hovers around how to be awesome and amazing though.
For Alexander, it was more on outlining and planning for the new comic title under his banner.
It was still a plunder and plagiarizing operation. However, it is something that would capitalize on an incoming wave that would make its impact much later this year of 1984, specifically in October of 1984.
-----
On October's slow theater season, a certain film is set to make waves.
Contrary to the low expectations of the studio and even the lead actor Schwarzenegger himself, the time-traveling robot hitman sent by Skynet became an unexpected success.
A hit movie that is relative to its market, which is between the summer and the Christmas blockbusters. But it's better to be a big fish in a small pond than the other way around.
It was James Cameron who said so to commemorate his breakout filmmaking role as the creator of The Terminator.
He also seems to have started this trend that tends to reverse the expectations. The Terminator was just the start as Judgement Day, Titanic, and Avatar exceeded estimates and shut the mouth of the doubters.

From these continuous successes, truck driver slash janitor Cameron turned into the director who would dominate the box office championships.
There is still a lot to take from Director Cameron's life story but what Alexander is currently eyeing on is the upcoming cyborg or android craze that stoic Arnold would spawn.
It is too bad that he can't plunder T-800 since the director is also notorious for coming up with his ideas even years ahead of his filming. The failure of the so-called Avatar creators was exposed with the director's sketches that were drawn many years before any of the scammers' so-called conception date.
Quick swiping like how he had done with the Ninja Turtles clearly wouldn't work this time around as the post-production would have already been underway when he earned this future foresight.
Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, Alexander could only let go of the missed opportunity. Still, the enormous flops that it would become in the 20th century is a factor that he weighed in to lessen his regrets.
-----
Since he can't earn the success of it, he could still however ride on its success. It isn't like T-800 is the only robotic figure that was conceived in 1982.
If James Cameron came up with an assassin robot through a fever dream shortly after the release of Piranha II: The Spawning.
Then, a man, whose name Alexander forgot, came up with a cop robot after working on the set of 1982's Blade Runner.
He had this vision of a far-distant Blade Runner–type world, where there was an all-mechanical cop coming to a sense of real human intelligence.
Thus, Alexander would swipe SuperCop or whatever from that poor man since the rejected manuscript is still probably laying in the man's study or something.
What clearly sealed the deal on securing the copyright under the Creed Comics banner is that he already ordered Mr. Legalities on the task since he was hired.

Without much trouble and before Schwarzenegger would wow the audience with his robot mayhem, RoboCop could debut earlier and have its glory.
Officer Alex Murphy would be killed in duty and be kitted into a powerful and heavily-armored cyborg.
Skynet has no idea that they would be forced to share the glory and spotlight of the 1984 cyborg uprising.
Alexander could also take solace in the fact that Robocop is the textbook cyborg while Cameron confidently labeled T-800 as a cyborg even though it clearly is an android in technicality.
1980s America still hasn't bothered enough to know the difference between cyborgs, androids, and robots after all.
The critical incentive is that when 'The Terminator' finally arrives and dominates the theaters, the RoboCop comic book issues could tap into that market.
Aside from secretly swiping Cameron's success and the name-forgotten screenwriter, Alexander also realized that he unintentionally targeted Orion Pictures with just this one RoboCop movement.
Whatever the aftereffects of this plundering are, he had already done it a couple of times that he just didn't bother finding out more about it.
He is just simply riding the waves of mechanical conceptions and nothing more.
-----
Alexander then drew many RoboCop versions. After all, he would be stupid if he didn't do Mark's I to infinity like how Iron Man did to employ versatility in the toy market.
RoboCop from the 1987 movie would be the scrappy first iteration and the cool dark RoboCop from 2014 is where it would be headed towards.
It would seem that it wasn't just Orion that he was ripping off but Marvel as well.
Setting aside who was pirated and the RoboCop version drawings for later, Alexander simply move on for the
outlining the story.
As usual, he corrected the kinks and made it bearable from its B movie origins.
Omni Consumer Products, leader Cain of the Nuke Addicts, the dystopian and future Detroit economy, slasher android Otomo, ED-209 enforcement droid, and all that makes the RoboCop franchise tick.
Alexander also kept the three RoboCop prime directives: serve the public trust, protect the innocent, and uphold the law. A fourth prime directive, Directive 4, which is classified to be a kill mode version.
Essentially a story with beginning and end but much grander than what it was initially set out to be from the past-future.
Since RoboCop is of law enforcement, he also didn't fail to incorporate all the police misdeeds and corrupt nuances that he encountered in the news.
If a cop comic book didn't cater to the warped view of the public of the police, then what kind of success could it achieve?
He had effectively made a lot of subplots with all the police dramas in his memory.
In the end, Alexander was quite satisfied with his renewed vision for the RoboCop franchise.
Although the outline still needs some work, the basic framework is already there and he can only wait for its full conception and the market's judging reception.
Another franchise is at hand and Alexander was looking forward to the societal effects that come from it.
Personally, he was excited at the prospects of having many RoboCop toys be sought after by nerds and be displayed in their collection rooms.
