Starting this month are two exciting new features in Dark Horse Comics. For all of you Godzilla fans out there, we've got a new two-part tale of the King of the Monsters that sets the stage for an infestation of monsters in Dark Horse's future.
We've also got the beginning of a beautifully rendered three-part African story of that monomaniacal hunter of the Galaxy, Predator. As if that weren't enough, we're also wrapping up the three-part introductory story of "Who is X?" as well as bringing you Part 3 of "James Bond: Light of My Death." That's Bond. James Bond... in a very debonair color cover drawn by John Watkiss.

Terceron City is home to many murderers and manipulators -- it's overpopulated, over-industrialized, and totally corrupt. It's also home to many heroes, including the super-clean superteam Allegiance. But where Allegiance isn't getting the job done, Terceron's latest resident, The Heretic, has no such obstructions. A rogue from an ancient brotherhood of religious assassins, The Heretic has renounced both his murderous past and Allegiance's code of honor. Terceron City's going to get a whole lot better, or he's going to see that it dies trying.

Cover by Paul Chadwick.
When the first issue of Dark Horse Presents hit the stands ten years ago, readers were blown away by the action in Chris Warner's Black Cross, and touched by the humanity of Paul Chadwick's Concrete. This month, history repeats itself as both characters once again appear in an issue together in all-new stories. Also, Dark Horse's first licensed character, Godzilla, wades ashore; and from Dark Horse's first manga series, Outlanders: Twenty Years Later, is a sequel (of sorts) that has never before been seen in this country! You may not have to wait another ten years for an issue this great, but do you really want to take that chance?
