BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2180 is OUT NOW!
The Galaxy’s Greatest Comic enters May, and at the time of writing there’s been no changes to the lockdown situation that everyone’s experiencing.
Indeed, under normal circumstances the beginning of this month would see the annual Free Comic Book Day event but alas that has been postponed until later in the summer so we’re afraid you’ll have to wait a little longer to pick up the special 2000 AD FCBD issue (with its exclusive, all-new Dredd story by Al Ewing and Erica Henderson!), as well as issue one of the Best of 2000 AD, the direct-market reprint title that was also due to launch round about now.
Ah well — take solace from the fact that our illustrious organ is still here every week, delivering the Thrill-power that we know you Squaxx hunger for.
This prog sees the finale of the current Skip Tracer story Nimrod, while Aquila: The Burning Fields reaches its penultimate part. Elsewhere, Judge Dredd: Chimpsky’s Law, Hershey and Survival Geeks all build towards their zarjaz conclusions in Prog 2182, ahead of the second of Tharg’s nephew Joko-Jargo’s bumper all-ages Regened issues, out on 27 May.
Expect the usual scrotnig action from Cadet Dredd, Anderson, Psi-Div, and more!
2000 AD Prog 2180 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 // Chimpsky’s Law / Part Three
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 Ten
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…
AQUILA // The Burning Fields // Part Seven
Following Spartacus’s failed revolt against his Roman masters, his rebel army was
crucified. Amongst these was the slave-turned-gladiator AQUILA, who cried out to the
gods for vengeance — and was answered by Ammit the Devourer, a deity that gifted
him with immortality in return for keeping her fed with evil men’s souls. Now, Aquila
wants to be released from Ammit’s bond, and is hunting for clues to her location…
SURVIVAL GEEKS // Crisis of Infinite Nerds / Part Six
Somewhere in the outer limits of space/time, plunging through the planes of reality,
is what looks like a regular suburban two-up two-down, but it is in fact powered by
misfiring transdimensional technology. Inside live sci-fi obsessives Clive, Rufus and
Simon, plus reluctant housemate Sam and pet Cthulhu Howard: explorers on the edge
of beyond, they’re never far from trouble on the worlds they visit…
HERSHEY // Disease / Part Six
Judge Barbara Hershey was one of Justice Department’s most respected and capable young officers before she became Chief Judge. Leading the city through numerous challenges, she only occasionally clashed with Dredd — until the ‘Small House’ affair and the revelation of Judge Smiley’s clandestine operations on her watch. Now, though, a microbial virus has seen Hershey resign, and her health suffer to the point of death…
