PROG 2299 out now
BORAG THUNGG, YOUNG EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2299 is OUT NOW!
I am The Mighty Tharg, Betelgeusian overlord supercharging your realities with Thrill-power!
All the scrotnig current stories wrap up this issue, Terrans, with Dexter and Jaegir returning next year, and Skip Tracer signing off on its last ever episode.
Usually for an autumn jumping-on prog I have a line-up of all-new strips to follow a series of endings such as this, but this year we’re doing something a little different. Prog 2300 is going to be a bumper 48-page bonanza of zombie horror as the undead infection spreads across the whole 2000 AD multiverse, affecting everyone from Sam Slade to the Survival Geeks, Rogue Trooper to the Mean Arena.
Why are the stars of the Galaxy’s Greatest being reduced to shambling, flesh-hungry corpses? Well, you’ll have to wait seven days to find out, but let me just say that September 2022 marks thirty years since Sabbat the Necromagus was defeated in the mega-epic Judgement Day… This is a story too big to contain within the covers of the pulse-pounding weekly, so it’ll be crossing over with Judge Dredd Megazine 448, also on sale next week (though make sure you read the prog first). The ghouls are go on 21 September, my Squaxx!
2000 AD Prog 2299 is out now from all good newsagents and comic book stores, plus digitally from our webshop and apps! Don’t forget that if you buy an issue of 2000 AD in the first week of its release then postage in the UK is free!
