Set outside the continuity of the DC Universe, the series was written by Doug Moench with artwork provided by Jim Baikie.
When one of the robot policemen, known as the Electric Warriors, or Leks, develops self-awareness, it begins to question the correctness of the social order and decides to help the Zigs.
At the same time, a man named Derek Two-Shadow is living in the forest with a tribe of natural born natives called Primmies.
Magistrate Marder has learned about a fleet of what appear to be alien vessels and wishes to fuse man and machine to create a new breed of Electric Warrior, the Synthoids.
He had hoped to duplicate 9-03's autonomy and intelligence, but since that failed, he has the Primmies rounded up, captured, then taken to the city where they are converted into cyborgs and most of them die from the shock.
This disgusted him into leaving her forever due to the fact that the surgery required had left horrible scars on her back and her body had been changed so that they could no longer enjoy a normal physical relationship.
The Electric Warrior agrees to go back to Earth with the "aliens" to give them their experimental data, while the rest of the people remain behind but in a more mutually beneficial and cooperative peace.
