ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2385 is OUT NOW!
Weep with joy and buckle your diodes — I am The Mighty Tharg and I bring you Thrill-power!
We surge into summer like a squad of Intestinauts falling upon a bacterial cluster in your upper colon — June is upon us and the Thrills are hot, hot, hot! Dredd edges closer to a confrontation with the Undercity entity known as Iron Teeth; Kurtis and Lind wrestle sigils in Brink; the net is closing in on Proteus Vex; the microbial cover stars come face to cerebellum with the mysterious Dr Globulon; and 3riller Blue Skies Over Deadwick reaches its explosive finale. All in all, another packed prog of searing sci-fi to fry your imaginations!
I expect many of you Squaxx picture the Command Module to be a dark and gritty environment, in which stories of anti-heroes battling hostile worlds are conjured into being — and, to be fair, it is ninety per cent of the time like that — but here at Thrill-Central we’re not averse to a little romance, which is why my droids have been working hard on a new Kickstarter project that sees the return of classic title Roxy as an eighty-page special.
The crowd-funding launches this month — check it out, Terrans!
2000 AD Prog 2385 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!
