2000 AD Prog 2365 out now!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2365 is OUT NOW!

Tharg The Mighty here, Thrill-connoisseur from Quaxxann, bringing you your weekly action!

Alas the melancholy news continues into 2024 — after reporting Ian Gibson’s death last prog, all of us here in the Command Module were very sad to hear that Judge Dredd, Nikolai Dante and The Order artist John Burns died on 29 December.

Although John chose to retire last year — you’ll be able to read the last series he contributed to, the Kek-W-scripted Nightmare, New York, at some point in the near future, with David Roach taking over on art duties — he leaves behind an incredible body of work, with a generation of readers encountering his pages in different titles. His career started in the late fifties, and in the sixties he was drawing for the likes of TV Century 21 and girls’ comics such as Diana and June as well as daily newspaper strips. By the seventies and eighties, he could be found in TV Comic, Eagle and Look-In, illustrating UFO, The Bionic Woman and The Fists of Danny Pyke, before making his 2000 AD debut in 1991.

One of the last of the old-school painters, his glorious pages were beautiful to hold and pore over, channelling decades of experience in comics. RIP, John.

2000 AD Prog 2364 out now!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2364 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, all-powerful alien super-being at the helm of this SF anthology!!

Due to the inevitable delay in interstellar shipping, it means that that this prog is sent to the print-bots a couple of weeks before Xmas, but you Squaxx won’t see it until the second week of January. As a consequence, this news has already circulated widely online, but nevertheless I must pay tribute to art-droid Ian Gibson, who sadly passed away on 11 December after a long battle with cancer.

One of 2000 AD’s longest-serving artists, contributing to the first Dredd multi-parter The Robot Wars in 1977, and going on to draw a huge number of classic Dredd stories as well as co-creating Robo-Hunter with John Wagner and The Ballad of Halo Jones with Alan Moore, he leaves an extraordinary legacy in the pages of the Galaxy’s Greatest.

With his unmistakable style, combining humour, action and beautiful characterisation, he was a brilliant storyteller — whether it was the crazed robots in Verdus, the gang war in Rumble in the Jungle or future-war on Moab in Halo Jones, he could handle it all, and the pages glowed with energy and excitement.

Rest in peace, Ian. You will be much missed.

2000 AD Prog 2364 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!

Seeking a new life, these refugees must take a risky journey…


Script: Cavan Scott / Art: Luke Horsman / Letters: Simon Bowland

Now, the PM and the two youths have been shot down en route to India, crashing in the jungle…
