Arlésienne de l'éternel, Lady Mechanika avait fait de jolis débuts chez Aspen Comics à l'été 2010. L'(anti-)héroïne steampunk de Joe Benitez séduisait par son style magnifique et son ambiance mélangeant action et mystère dans un univers victorien. Malheureusement, les problèmes de rythmes de Joe Benitez se sont vite faits sentir, et la publication a atteint quatre numéro en près d'un an et demi (du #0 en août 2010 au #3 en décembre 2011). Et depuis, le vide intersidéral.
