JUDGE DREDD // THE SMALL HOUSE 

By Rob Williams (w) Henry Flint (a) Chris Blythe (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)

Mega-City One, 2140 AD. Home to over 100 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, Dredd and a small team of colleagues have been tracking covert operatives, under the command of the mysterious Smiley…

BRINK // HIGH SOCIETY

By Dan Abnett (w) INJ Culbard (a) Simon Bowland (l)

The late 21st century, and through environmental catastrophe and industrial overload Earth has been reduced to a wasteland. Mankind finally evacuated the planet in 2072 and millions were housed in a number of deep-space Habitats. Bridget Kurtis, investigator with the Habitat Security Division, was involved in a sect-crime case that saw her partner murdered. Now, she’s gone undercover on Yuliya Habitat…

FIENDS OF THE EASTERN FRONT // 1812

By Ian Edginton (w) Dave Taylor (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)

In 1980, the diary of German soldier Hans Schmitt was discovered in Berlin, detailing events that occurred in 1941, when he and his comrades encountered the terrifying Captain Constanta and his Romanian platoon, who feasted on the blood of their Russian enemies. But Schmitt was not the first trooper to encounter Constanta on the battlefield, as General Armand D’Hubert of Napoleon’s Grand Armée recounts…

SKIP TRACER // LEGION

By James Peaty (w) Colin MacNeil (a) Dylan Teague (c) Ellie DeVille (l)

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-for-hire, whose military past is coming back to haunt him…

KINGDOM // ALPHA AND OMEGA

By Dan Abnett (w) Richard Elson (a) Abigail Bumer (c) Ellie DeVille (l)

Earth, the far future. Mankind has been all but destroyed, those still surviving forced into hiding by Them — insectile creatures that have taken over the world. Charged with protecting humanity are genetically engineered dog-soldiers like Gene the Hackman — savage warriors that patrol the wilderness. Now, Gene, Pause and Leezee Sower have escaped the Masters’ orbital, but have encountered mysterious riders…

It’s that time of the week once again, when you can put aside the demands of mundane reality and plunge head-first into the scrotnig contents of Tharg’s illustrious organ!

The Eglington and MacNeil droids bring their Dredd thriller Icon to a close this prog, plus there’s another complete Sinister Dexter story from Dan Abnett and Steve Yeowell, alongside the ongoing excitement of Grey Area, Sláine and Indigo Prime!

2000 AD Prog 2052 is out now from all good newsagents and comic book stores, plus digitally from our webshop and apps!

Albion. Celtic warrior SLÁINE united the tribes of the Earth Goddess and became the first High King of Ireland, but is now a wanderer.

Now, the Archon has awoken and unleashed his army of stone warriors…

Indigo Prime: A Dying Art
by John Smith (w) Lee Carter (a) Simon Bowland (l)
The multiverse. There are an infinite number of parallel realities, and all need managing in case of dimensional instability. This is where INDIGO PRIME comes in, the multiverse’s troubleshooters, whose agents — recruited post-death — are trained to deal with space/time catastrophes. Now, IP’s Imagineers have been sent into psychic shock following the Christhulhu event, and a team must enter their heads to save them…

Sinister Dexter: Snake-Skinned
by Dan Abnett (w) Jake Lynch (a) John Charles (c) Ellie De Ville (l)
Gun-sharks Finnigan SINISTER and Ramone DEXTER are the best hitmen money can buy in the future city of Downlode.

But whacking Tanenbaum has reset the continuum, meaning no one knows who they are…
