Mighty-Man re-breaks the Dragon's bones, which begin to heal properly. Johnny Redbeard re-creates Bludgeon, and Amanda Mills meets Peter Klaptin, who re-assumes the mantle of Star to impress her. Howard Niseman and Chris Robinson are captured by a gang of Freaks, and the massive jailbreak continues. New police captain Mendosa forces Dragon to start working on his paperwork. In a back-up story by Keith Giffen, Jeff Matsuda & Terry Austin, SuperPatriot enlists the Dragon into helping him defeat the forces of Body Function, a team of disgusting criminals led by Cesspool, all of whom are rounded up and defeated by the two super heroes. This issue features an alternate cover by Jeff Matsuda & Terry Austin (below left) - the story inside remains the same.
