PROG 2271 out now

BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2271 is OUT NOW!

We trust your circuits have fully recovered from the bumper birthday bonanza that was last week’s anniversary issue — we’re back to the regular page-count this prog but the Thrills are still giant-sized as Judge Dredd: The Citadel and Brink: Mercury Retrograde launch into their scrotnig second chapters, while Proteus Vex, Kingmaker and The Order all build towards their respective climaxes, with Fantastic Voyage’s finale coming in just seven days’ time!

But the forty-fifth celebrations are not over yet — not least because the beginning of March marks the anniversary of a certain 22nd century lawman’s debut — for as you will no doubt have seen from the adverts, the Command Module is hosting a special
free online convention at 2000AD.com on 26-27 March that will feature a plethora of zarjaz guests talking about the Galaxy’s Greatest and its pervading influence.

Not only will there be comics creators like John Wagner, Garth Ennis, Alex De Campi and Dan Cornwell attending, but also fans from outside the field, including Robin Ince, Ian Rankin, Mitch Benn, Dane Baptiste, and more. Don’t miss it, Terrans!

THE ORDER // Fantastic Voyage / Part Ten!

Throughout history, mankind has been under threat of extermination by the Wurms, creatures that break into our reality. Defending humanity are the men and women of THE ORDER, a band of warriors that have fought the entities across the centuries. But time has become fractured, and now the despotic Francis Bacon is determined to rule a vast empire. Now, the various members of The Order have become separated at the edge of time…

KINGMAKER // Falls The Shadow / Part Eight!

The Nine Kingdoms may have defeated Ichnar the Wraith King to live in relative peace, but they hadn’t reckoned on the Thorn — a race of aliens that occupied their world with the intention of strip-mining its magic. Wizard Ablard, ork Crixus and dryad Princess Yarrow believed they may have the means to stop them — but Ichnar manifested in Ablard, and Crixus and Yarrow were forced to kill him. Ichnar’s spirit escaped…

PROTEUS VEX // Desire Paths / Part Ten!

Another galaxy, the far future.
