2000 AD Prog 2336 Regened out now!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2336 is OUT NOW!

Joko-Jargo here again, bringing you another special all-ages edition of the Galaxy’s Greatest!

It’s once more time to shove my Uncle Tharg out of the editorial hotseat for a week and take charge of his pulse-pounding SF anthology. Inside this ghafflebette issue, you’ll find four complete all-action Thrills — Cadet Dredd is forced to take on his clone-brother Rico when the latter is dosed with a senses-enhancing serum in ‘Animal Instincts’ by Liam Johnson and The Phoenix’s Neill Cameron (Mega Robo Bros); Eliot and Meera are back for their latest spooky investigation in Finder & Keeper by John Reppion and Davide Tinto as the new teacher at Stonecroft starts acting strangely; there’s more school-based magical mayhem in Lowborn High by David Barnett and Mike Walters (taking over from Anna Morozova), with Zack and Ali trapped underground amongst troll-like cavedwellers; and Geoffrey D. Wessel and Zander Cannon craft the time-twisting Future Shock ‘Tempus Fugitives’ as a seemingly average family living in the US in 1987 are more than they appear!

The Regened library is ever-growing, so don’t miss collections like Pandora Perfect, Department K, Full Tilt Boogie as well as the four anthology volumes, all available from shop.2000AD.com!

2000 AD Prog 2336 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!

CADET DREDD // Animal Instincts

Mega-City One, 2076 AD. Home to over 800 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. On one side is the polluted Black Atlantic, and to the west is the blasted radlands of the Cursed Earth. Overcrowding in the metropolis is rife, unemployment is at ninety per cent, boredom is universal and crime is rampant. Only the Judges — a zerotolerance police force empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. CADET JOE DREDD — together with his clone-brother Rico — is a rising star in Justice Department, and will one day be its finest officer. Make no mistake, he is the Law!


Script: David Barnett / Art: Mike Walters / Colour: Pippa Bowland / Letters: Jim Campbell

LOWBORN HIGH // Buried Secrets

For as long as anyone can remember, Wychdusk Manor has been the school to which all the top magical novices are sent, where they are trained to become the world’s greatest wizards. There, students are taught every form of spellcasting by the wisest of mages, and to be part of Wychdusk’s alumni is an incredible honour. But what about those that don’t make the grade, that don’t have the talent to make it to this prestigious establishment? For them, there’s LOWBORN HIGH, a rundown inner-city comprehensive that is often struggling with funding. Androgeus Frost has recently joined the school, becoming friends with Maisy, Ali and Drill and forming the Deadbeats Club, but he feels he belongs at Wychdusk…


Script: Geoffrey D. Wessel / Art & Letters: Zander Cannon

FUTURE SHOCKS // Tempus Fugitives

Out in the vast reaches of the universe, there are an infinite number of stories waiting to be told. These cautionary tales pass from traveller to traveller in the spaceports and around campfires on distant planets, acquiring the status of legend, their shocking ends a salutary lesson in hubris. Anything is possible in these twisted trips into the galaxy’s dark side. Abandon your preconceptions, and expect the unexpected. Now, in Warrendale, USA, in 1987, a family is attempting to live a normal, settled, suburban life — but they’re actually fugitives from the future, having travelled into the past to seek safety and escape the relentless Hunters, who travel the timestreams looking for them…


Script: John Reppion / Art: Davide Tinto / Colour: Gary Caldwell / Letters: Simon Bowland

FINDER & KEEPER // The Substitute

Somewhere in the UK, 2023. Meera Hundal and Eliot Hunter are a pair of friends at the local Stonecroft school. Although essentially good kids, they find themselves in trouble more often than they’d like thanks to their inability to walk away from a fight. Strong-willed and not afraid to speak their minds, their latest punishment was to help with community clean-up chores — and when they were clearing the house of Victorian ghost-hunter Professor A.J. Mortimer, they came upon the special devices that he used to trap spooks. Now in the possession of spectral vision goggles and a spirit-trap, they’re seeing if they can put them to good use…

Mega-City One, 2076 AD. Home to over 800 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. On one side is the polluted Black Atlantic, and to the west is the blasted radlands of the Cursed Earth.

LOWBORN HIGH: GOOD SPORT

Script: David Barnett / Art: Anna Morozova / Letters: Jim Campbell

For as long as anyone can remember, Wychdusk Manor has been the school to which all the top magical novices are sent, where they are trained to become the world’s greatest wizards. There, students are taught every form of spellcasting by the wisest of mages, and to be part of Wychdusk’s alumni is an incredible honour. But what about those that don’t make the grade, that don’t have the talent or the family name to make it to this prestigious establishment? For them, there’s LOWBORN HIGH, a rundown inner-city comprehensive that is often struggling with funding, but its pupils can still be capable of some truly amazing feats…


FUTURE SHOCKS: INTO THE VOID

Script: Karl Stock / Art: Tom Newell / Colours: Barbara Nosenzo / Letters: Annie Parkhouse

Out in the vast reaches of the universe, there are an infinite number of stories waiting to be told. These cautionary tales pass from traveller to traveller in the spaceports and around campfires on distant planets, acquiring the status of legend, their shocking ends a salutory lesson in hubris. Anything is possible in these twisted trips into the galaxy’s dark side. Abandon your preconceptions, and expect the unexpected. Now, at some point in the future, the online world will become ever more sophisticated, allowing users to leave reality — or solidstate — behind and exist in an environment of nothing but memes and dreams…


SCOOTER & JINX: THE BIG, GRAND SOUFFLE OF NOTHING

Script: James Peaty / Art: Steve Roberts / Letters: Simon Bowland

Scooter Occultatum was working at Mondo’s Mektail Bar on Eco- Point when she encountered Jinx Calhoun, a rogue and a thief, who has more than enough secrets of his own and plenty of enemies with scores to settle. When gangsters came after them, keen to get their hands on something Jinx had stolen, the pair went on the run, Jinx discovering in the process that Scooter is in fact a Bone Machine, a highly lethal cybernetic organism. When Jinx was severely wounded, Scooter managed to save his life but lost her self-repairing functionality — and the two became bonded at a level neither them fully understands…


PANDORA PERFECT: FEED THE BIRD

Script: Roger Langridge / Art: Brett Parson / Letters: Simon Bowland

Earth, the far future. While the towering starscrapers and flying cars may make this look like some idealised Utopia, crime is still a major problem, and there’s no felon more wanted than the nefarious Pandora Perez — burglar, safe-cracker, armed bandit and all-round career criminal. Just when the authorities thought that they’d finally managed to incarcerate her, her loyal robot assistant Gort came to her rescue and succeeded in breaking her out of her cell. Despite being a wanted woman, Pandora’s still up to her usual confidence tricks, and now she’s looking to score a big payday by stealing some pills that increase the size of poultry…
