OUT NOW: 2000 AD Prog 2146

BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS!

Welcome back to your weekly Thrill-surge, the finest in future fiction courtesy of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic!

More zarjaz delights as ever to fry your synapses, Terrans, and this prog there’s the start of a new Dredd story in The Fall of Barbarbara Grimm by the Carroll and Dyer droids, plus high-octane 3riller Red Road joins the line-up, courtesy of Andi Ewington and Ben Willsher!

Last issue’s talk of The Vigilant: Legacy left us with no space to plug this month’s Judge Dredd Megazine, and it would be remiss of me not to remind you that it is available now from all good Thrill-merchants, and features the latest scrotnig instalments of Dredd, Anderson, Psi-Division, Diamond Dogs, DeMarco, P.I. and The Returners.

In addition there’s chats with former 2000 AD sub-editor Nick Landau, artist Doug Braithwaite and Vigilant writer Simon Furman, and ahead of the return of seventeenth-century zombiehunter Defoe in Prog 2150 (see the teaser at the end of this prog), the Meg’s back-up mini-trade collects the first half of Pat Mills and Leigh Gallagher’s The Damned from 2013. An incredible one hundred and twenty-eight pages for just £5.99 — don’t miss it, humes!

JUDGE DREDD // THE FALL OF BARBARBARA GRIMM

By Mike Carroll (w) Nick Dyer (a) Quinton Winter (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)

Mega-City One, 2141 AD. Home to over 130 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. Crime is rampant, and only the Judges — empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law! Now, he’s using Mob-compromised Iso-Block tek-maintanance supervisor Barbarbara Grimm to smuggle for Justice Department…

SINISTER DEXTER // DOLORES 4 EVER – Part Two

Dan Abnett (w) Steve Yeowell (a) John Charles (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)

Downlode gun-sharks Finnigan SINISTER and Ramone DEXTER are the best triggers money can buy. Having whacked Holy Moses Tanenbaum, a ganglord from an alternate dimension whose presence threatened the fabric of reality, they’ve found killing him reset the continuum, meaning no one knows who they are, apart from hacker Billi Octavo. Getting back to business means, however, finding the city has moved on…

Kek-W (w) Lee Carter (a) Ellie De Ville (l)

 JAEGIR // VALKYRIE – Part Three

Gordon Rennie (w) Simon Coleby (a) Gary Caldwell (c) Ellie De Ville (l)

The Greater Nordland Republic. While the Norts are currently engaged in a galaxy-wide war with the Souther forces, it falls to military officers such as Kapiten-Inspector Atalia JAEGIR of the Nordland State Security Police to investigate war criminals amongst her own ranks. She’s also suffering from the Strigoi curse, a fault in the Nort DNA. Now, she’s being tortured by the Southers, while other parties are moving to free her…
