Agents Of Law
''Agents of Law'' was a series published by Dark Horse Comics in 1995. It followed the story of Law, a powerful individual of dubious motives who took over Golden City after the events of ''Will to Power'', which was the big event of the in-house Dark Horse line of superhero comics during the summer of 1994. It was a continuation of '' Catalyst: Agents of Change''. Despite massive hype by the publishing company prior to its release the series ultimately failed to survive the withering market of the time and the choice by Dark Horse to scale back their line of superhero comics, which had only recently been renamed. Law was the first super villain to ever be killed by a Predator. See the last page of issue #6. Publication * 1–5: Keith Giffen & Lovern Kindzierski, writers. Dan Lawlis, pencils.
