JUDGE DREDD // THICK SKIN
by TC Eglington (w) Boo Cook (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)
Mega-City One, 2139 AD. Home to over 72 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America, where unemployment is endemic, boredom universal, and crime is rampant. Tensions rest on a constant knifeedge, and only the zero-tolerance Judges — empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law!

KINGDOM // AS IT IS IN HEAVEN
by Dan Abnett (w) Richard Elson (a) Ellie De Ville (l)
Earth, the far future. Mankind has been all but destroyed, those still surviving forced into hiding by Them — insectile creatures that have taken over the world.

Now, Gene has awoken from stasis on the Masters’ orbital station, and gone on the run…
