Comments:
The origin of the Doom Patrol is retold in some detail in this story.

This story is entirely a flashback to events following Robotman's origin and culminating in the origin of the Doom Patrol.

The story is subtitled "Robotman Unchained" and is continued from the second story of Doom Patrol #103.

Synopsis:
The identity of the surgeon who transplanted his brain is publicly revealed, and Robotman is lured into another police trap. When he finally confronts the Chief, however, his madness is cured, leading to the first meeting of the future Doom Patrol.
