Powers and Abilities

Arakno-Mekkanoids are huge combat robots bristling with armor plating, buzzsaws, guns and the like.

Apokolips robots are normally equipped with self-destruct mechanisms (for something of this size that would be Bomb: 10, goes off when current BODY condition is a 03 or less). The one encountered didn’t explode ; that may be a fluke or Arakno-Mekkanoids might not be rigged for self-destruction for some reason.

History

Arakno-Mekkanoids are combat robots meant to quell serious, armed disturbances ; Parademon patrols can sometimes call one for backup if they feel things are really out of hand. This particular one was seen and defeated by Lobo when he crashed a large number of drunken partying bounty hunters on Apokolips.
