| HistoryText
| - Mek-Quake was originally designed as a construction/demolition droid, a robotic bulldozer employed by Howard Quartz, the CEO of Ro-Busters. A droid of little brain and extremely violent tendencies, he repeatedly clashed with his supposed 'teammates', Ro-Jaws and Hammerstein. When Quartz eventually decided to close down Ro-Busters, Mek-Quake was the only one of the droids on the squad he bothered to keep.
Centuries later, Mek-Quake turned up with his brain transplanted into a new, more humanoid body, acting as a war droid in the service of the human Empire of Termight, which brought him into conflict with Nemesis the Warlock. Back in his bulldozer body again he later almost executed his former comrade Hammerstein, but was eventually inducted by Nemesis into the ABC Warriors, his loyalty having proven as uncertain as his temperament.
He served with the Warriors for many years, though he was never entirely trustworthy and became gradually more and more mentally unstable. Eventually, the Warriors had him committed to a mental hospital on Mars, and when Blackblood informed him they would not be returning for him, Mek-Quake joined Blackblood in switching sides, betraying the team to General Volkhan's forces.
When the Warriors defeated Volkhan and he and Blackblood retreated, they abandoned Mek-Quake to his fate, but he escaped and later turned up on a TV chat show promoting his autobiography, 'Big Jobs'. He has since re-entered the employ of Howard Quartz, and murdered the adopted son of former ABC Warrior Tubal Caine on his orders.

| Notes
| - Outside of his 'official' continuity, Mek-Quake was said to be employed by Tharg, the alien editor of 2000 AD to destroy script and art robots who had failed to meet his impossibly high standards of 'Thrill Power'. Mek-Quake supposedly lived in the basement of Kings Reach Tower, where 2000 AD had its offices at the time.
