2000 AD Prog 2371 out now!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2371 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, all-powerful alien editor of this award-winning sci-fi anthology!

As we slide off the tail-end of February, it means that the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic has reached another ghafflebette milestone — yes, my illustrious organ, and, of course, by extension its most famous son, Judge Dredd, who’s been with it since the second prog, are both an incredible forty-seven years old.

Traditionally on your planet, when it’s somebody’s birthday, they’re given presents to celebrate the occasion — but for this Quaxxann, I’ve always been one to fly in the face of what’s expected, so rather than ask all you Squaxx to supplicate yourselves before me and bring offerings of gratitude, instead it’ll be I who will be giving you a gift — the gift of Thrill-power!

What better way to toast these forty-seven years of zarjazness than with an issue stuffed with circuit-shattering strips like Dredd’s current story A Better World, Thistlebone, The Fall of Deadworld, Indigo Prime and Full Tilt Boogie — an awesome line-up showcasing the work of my creator-meks, who fill these pages with their talent every week, and have done for over four and a half decades.

Join me and salute them, humes!

2000 AD Prog 2371 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!
