I started doing this for Kureno and decided that I might as well give
Mello some love, too. So, I made a list of all of Mello's appearances
in
Death Note, and made an attempt so summarize each. I figure
it'll come in handy for making icons or just for keeping my Mello-fu
nice and accurate. I also want to list the chapters he's mentioned or
discussed in, but I'll have to go back and do that later (unless, of
course, people want to provide me with exact Chapter numbers ^^). I
think I got all his actual appearances and a couple of major mentions,
though. Let me know if you spot something that's off or missing.

Page 104.
[no
actual appearance--flashack only] Near explains that because of Mello
suddenly kidnapping Takada, he discovered that the Note he and SPK had
tampered with was a fake, and he was able to obtain the real Note. With
Mello's aggression and Near's coolness combined, they were able to
surpass L and get evidence against Kira.
* I'm not sure how they will allot the chapters into Volume 12 so I may have broken the chapters in the wrong places.
