BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2171 is OUT NOW!
It’s back to business as usual after last week’s bumper all-ages takeover, and we trust you enjoyed Joko-Jargo’s selection of tales in the Regened Prog, and passed them on to younger proto-Squaxx to give them a taste of Thrill-power!
Remember, that was the first of no less than four such special issues coming your way across 2020 — and we return to this week’s Prog with the start of a couple of new stories…
First up, an alien comes to Mega-City One and finds the metropolis its usual accommodating, tolerant self in Ken Niemand and Jake Lynch’s Judge Dredd thriller The Relic; and secondly bounty hunter Nolan Blake is back in Skip Tracer: Nimrod by James Peaty and Paul Marshall, with a dangerous enemy stalking the streets of The Cube. Elsewhere, we have the final chapter for Proteus Vex, and the latest instalments for The Zaucer of Zilk and Feral & Foe!
Heading into spring, more ghafflebette delights await you within the pages of the Galaxy’s Greatest — next prog Sinister Dexter return, courtesy of the Abnett and Yeowell droids, and later this month Gordon Rennie and Patrick Goddard reunite on Aquila — but look out too for the Action 2020 special on 25 March: the comic they tried to ban is back, Terrans!
2000 AD Prog 2171 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!

JUDGE DREDD // The Relic // Part One
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, with the irradiated wasteland
known as the Cursed Earth to the west. Unemployment is rife, boredom universal and
crime is rampant. Tensions rest on a knife-edge and only the zero-tolerance Judges can
stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law!
SKIP TRACER // Nimrod / Part One
The Cube, the 27th century. This vast city floating in the depths of space was once a
monitoring station, but has been refitted by the Earth-led Consociation as a solution
to a universal housing problem. It’s now home to every kind of undesirable and wanted
criminal. That’s where SKIP TRACER Nolan Blake comes in, a former soldier turned
tracker, who, after a battlefield injury, was left with powerful psi-abilities…
THE ZAUCER OF ZILK // A ZAUCERFUL OF ZECRETS // Part Nine
The realm of Zilk, on the fringes of the imagination. The Zaucer was the wizard to
the royal court of Curtaindown, and was the most famous and powerful person in the
kingdom. But then came Errol Raine, master of despair from the world of Dankendreer,
who tried to take him down, and the Zaucer sacrificed his immortality to save his young
ward Tutu. Now, a mysterious figure called the Criminaut has stolen his fused wand…
PROTEUS VEX // ANOTHER DAWN // Finale!
Another galaxy, the far future. The centuries-long war between the Alliance and the
Obdurate people is now over, a conflict brought to an end with the deaths of billions
of Obdurate citizens, caused by the Alliance teleporting a dying white dwarf star into
their system. Now, Imperium agent PROTEUS VEX has caught up with the missing
Chancellor Rho 7 Baryon, who he has learnt plans to destroy an innocent colony world…
FERAL & FOE // Part Nine
It is five years after the Last-of-All-War, when the Monarchy succeeded in defeating
the Malign Lord, whose army of creatures sought to eradicate humanity. With their
leader dead, his minions are scattered across the lands, fleeing retribution from the
Wretchfinders. Necromancer Bode and warrior Wrath are two such beings, and have
been offered a deal — hunt and kill their own kind or be declared FERAL & FOE…
