[edit] Character History
This character history covers the entire published history of the Dark Horse Comics and Comics' Greatest World character Law. As such, it should be considered a spoiler. Read at your own risk.
Law was a detainee in Block 13 until his escape. He was the first ever escapee from Block 13. In fact, he is...
The first! The first touched by the Maelstrom and enhanced. Not killed...Not mutated.
While in the Cinnibar Flats area, Law picked up a group of followers including parahumans Redline, Nucleus, Firebase, and Shamus. Shamus, who has the ability to join with computers, is taken over by The Motor, the computer of Vortex, while joining with it for Law. Law also had a series of encounters with Frank Lamb of Division 13.
After leaving Cinnibar Flats, Law travels to Golden City and becomes Grace's replacement as dictator.
Eventually, an alien Predator comes to Golden City to hunt. It battles Law and kills him, removing his head.
[edit] Powers and Abilities
The exact nature and extent of Law's powers is unclear.
In Agents of Law #2, he servives a full blast from Mecha. His suit and the wall behind him are destroyed, but he doesn't have a scratch or even stumble. Yet in issue 6 of the same title, a Predator is able to overpower, kill, and behead the villain.
