Cover by Nelson. This issue of Dark Horse Comics showcases Mecha, in his first solo run in nearly a year. As one of Golden City's and -- more importantly -- Grace's superheroes, Mecha goes where he's told to go, and in "Urban Renewal," the action takes him to Chicago to stop a team of city-wrecking supervillians. Also, in the blood and dust-streaked conclusion to "Predator: Blood on Two-Witch Mountain," Enoch's grandfather faces his own devil under the hot desert sun. And don't expect the Predator to lose this time! FC. Cover price $2.50.
