This issue's creature features include:
- "Last Stand on Mason Drive¸" an adventure for Monster Hunters that pits the heroes versus bad guys and good guys! Written by Matt Riggsby (author of GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 8: Treasure Tables and others)¸ this tale includes stunning maps of the innocent-seeming site and the lair hidden underneath.

- "The Network¸" a generic organization suitable for modern-day heroes who don't mind being literally called to act!
