BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS OF ALL AGES – Prog 2206 is OUT NOW!
Welcome, Terrans, to the fourth Regened prog of 2020! By now, you Squaxx should know the score — Tharg passes his nephew Joko Jargo the editorial baton for one week and allows him to pull together a bumper issue of the Comic of Tomorrow featuring complete stories starring characters old and new.
Within these zarjaz pages you’ll find five stories guaranteed to energise the circuits of any hume — Cadet Dredd is back, courtesy of Mike Carroll and Nicolo Assirelli, and stranded in the dinosaur-infested wilds of the Cursed Earth; fellow Judge Cassandra Anderson also returns, once again by Cavan Scott and Paul Davidson, and tackling an alien menace that is not all it seems…
We also head to Nu Earth to meet clone-soldier Venus Bluegenes for the explosive Threat Level: Zero by Liam Johnson and Aneke; and the man with the two-storey brain, Abelard Snazz, returns to 2000 AD after an absence of thirtyseven years, brought to you by Paul Cornell and Anna Readman, who makes her prog debut!
Add to that another head-spinning Future Shock from Karl Stock and Tom Newell, and you have a scintillating blast of scrotnig sci-fi.
We hope you enjoy this latest Regened extravaganza, Earthlets — Regened will be back in 2021!

CADET DREDD // Tooth and Claw!
Mega-City One, 2077 AD. Home to over 800 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. On one side is the polluted Black Atlantic, and to the west is the blasted radlands of the Cursed Earth. Overcrowding
in the metropolis is rife, unemployment is at ninety per cent, boredom is universal and crime is rampant. Only the Judges — a zero-tolerance police force empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. CADET JOE DREDD — together with his
clone-brother Rico — is a rising star in Justice Department, and will one day be its finest officer. Make no mistake, he is the Law!
ABELARD SNAZZ // The Only Way Is Up!
The outer reaches of the galaxy. ABELARD SNAZZ is the man with the double-storey dome — a mutant whose reputation as the cleverest being in the universe is known on every planet in every system. Such is his tremendous reasoning power, civilisations
from every corner of space have sought him out to help solve their problems. If you’ve got the cash, and you’ve flattered his enormous ego enough, then Snazz will come up with a solution. Unfortunately, his record on actually improving a situation is kind of spotty, and even his loyal droid manservant Edwin is starting to think that maybe Abelard’s ideas are not always helpful…
VENUS BLUEGENES // Threat Level: Zero!
Nu Earth, just one planet among many caught up in a galactic war between the Norts and the Southers. Strategically vital, both sides are desperate to secure it but use of chemical weapons during the conflict has rendered the atmosphere poisonous. Now, soldiers must wear special suits to venture onto its surface — to breathe Nu Earth’s air is highly dangerous. So the Southers created the Genetic Infantrymen, bred to be immune to the planet’s lethal cocktail of pollutants. The female equivalent, known as ‘G.I. Dolls’,
were meant to be restricted to work on the orbiting command centre Milli-Com — but VENUS BLUEGENES has other ideas…
FUTURE SHOCKS // For The Man Who Lives Everywhen!
Out in the vast reaches of the universe, there are an infinite number of stories waiting to be told. These cautionary tales pass from traveller to traveller in the spaceports and around campfires on distant planets, acquiring the status of legend, their shocking ends
a salutory lesson in hubris. Anything is possible in these twisted trips into the galaxy’s dark side. Abandon your preconceptions, and expect the unexpected. Time travel has always been a dream of scientists throughout the centuries – the chance to explore eras in either the past or the future. But so far the technology has always eluded them — until now…
ANDERSON, PSI-DIVISION // Early Warning!
Mega-City One, 2142 AD. Psi-Division is a section of Justice Department that specialises in Judges with accentuated psychic talents — from precognition to exorcism, projection to pyrokinesis, it deals with all manner of paranormal crimes, and is often the city’s first defence against supernatural threats. Cassandra ANDERSON is Justice Department’s top telepath — warm, empathetic and often flippant, she’s not your usual Judge, and she still sees the good in the Big Meg’s citizens. Given that Psi-Judges are often highly strung, their occasionally disrespectful attitude is overlooked as long as they continue to get results…
