OUT NOW: 2000 AD Prog 2055!

1st November 2017

The Galaxy’s Greatest Comic surges into November with the Thrill-pumps fully primed!

Behind the cover by Simon Davis, 2000 AD Prog 2055 hits its stride as a zarjaz new Judge Dredd story begins, courtesy of the Carroll and Holden droids, with the future lawman heading Siberia way for a tussle on the frozen tundra. Elsewhere, Celtic barbarian Sláine battles vengeful mermaids, there’s a fight in the under-id as Indigo Prime’s agents receive help from a familiar face, hitmen Sinister Dexter curry favour with their favourite restaurant Instant Korma and protect them from Chicken Itza’s aggressive franchise war, and the demonic Rathbornes deploy a terrifying new weapon in Absalom — how’s that for a slice of fried Moctezuma Gold, Terrans?

2000 AD Prog 2055 is out now from all good newsagents and comic book stores, plus digitally from our webshop and apps!
