PROG 2251 out now
BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2251 is OUT NOW!
We trust your Thrill-circuits have suitably recovered from last week’s ghafflebette jumping-on prog, Terrans, and you’re ready for more scintillating sci-fi to galvanise your imaginations.
Within you’ll find the scrotnig second chapters of Judge Dredd: The Hard Way, Scarlet Traces: Storm Front, Pandora Perfect: Mystery Moon, The Diaboliks: Arrivederci Roma and The Out Book Two, brought to you, as ever, by Tharg’s feverishly busy creator-bots, working through the Great Lube Crisis (see the Damage Report for all the essential updates) like droids possessed.
Given the level of maintenance that the mek-minions require — some are over forty years old now, and are for ever popping a transistor — we have unfortunately had to raise the cover price from this issue by fifteen pence, taking into account the shortage of oil and replacement flanges, not to mention the rising costs of shuttle deliveries.
We trust, however, you’ll take one look at the contents of this Mighty Organ and believe the extra groats are worth it — but why not head over to shop.2000AD.com and investigate taking out a subscription? You’ll save money and receive zarjaz incentives to boot!

SCARLET TRACES // Storm Front // Part Two!
1968. It is decades since Mars waged war on Earth, and the major nations have access to Martian-derived technology, but Britain is still recovering from Martian bombardment in the 1940s, when much of the south of England was destroyed. This was followed by the arrival in the 1950s of two million Venusians, seeking refuge from Martian occupation. Now, the Martians are on the attack, and Earth is seeking allies in Jupiter…
