He was a cute little Disney-looking robot servant of a character named Mordillo, who created robot killers, and Shang Chi follows the path back to a private island Mordillo owns, that's kind of like a Disney theme park of robots and death traps for Shang Chi and his friends. Brynocki is something of a caretaker for the island and its killer machinations, who is extremely loyal to Mordillo. Even beyond his master's death in subsequent stories, Brynocki continues to serve him.

While innocent-looking and prone to speaking in cheerful good-natured catch-phrases and playfully taking on different cliche roles and costumes, Brynocki is deadly dangerous. The paradoxes and ironies make him aa very likeable and interesting character.




It was nice that he was handled exclusively for so long by Moench, having one writer gave him a consistency over multiple appearances.

He also had one appearance by Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema in ROM 47 (another series I really enjoyed).

The only other appearance I'm aware of was in THE THING 1-3 (2006 series) by writer Dan Slott, with art by Andrea Devito.

Man, a lot of guys at Marvel were drinking the bongwater back then, weren't they?
