PROG 2261 out now

BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2261 is OUT NOW!

It’s the final regular prog of 2021, Terrans — where did that year go? (Into the dumpster with 2020, I’m sure a lot of you are thinking…)

Regardless of temporal mysteries, we’ve got the concluding instalments this issue of Judge Dredd the Musical!, Scarlet Traces and Lordy Jordy, King of Everything, ahead of a brand-new line-up to commence next week in the bumper Xmas Thrill-splurge that we traditionally like to round out the last twelve months with.

Alongside an unmissable Dredd story — seriously, you’re not going to believe who we’ve got turning up in this one — there’s the scrotnig opening chapters of Proteus Vex, Kingmaker and The Order, plus The Out, Dexter, The Fall of Deadworld, and more.

Needless to say, miss it at your peril, Squaxx! While we’re in Betelgeusian hype-mode, we would also strongly recommend you place an order at your local Thrill-merchant for Meg 439, also out next week, as it too features an all-new roster of stories, including the return of Lawless and Diamond Dogs plus debuting Thrills Surfer by the Wagner and MacNeil droids and the Cursed Earth-set Death Cap!

JUDGE DREDD // The Musical! // Part Three!

Mega-City One, 2143 AD. Home to over 160 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. Crime is rampant and only the Judges — zero-tolerance cops empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop
total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law! Now, Sensitive Klegg — a member of the alien species with a love for culture and the arts — has written a rap musical about the life of the future cop. Starring in the lead role, and pulling together figures from Dredd’s past, he’s launched into the opening night…


Script: Ian Edginton / Art: D’Israeli / Letters: Simon Bowland

SCARLET TRACES // Storm Front // Part Eleven!

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. The Martians redoubled their attack on Earth, and Venusian engineer Ahron Shakespeare travelled to Jupiter to seek their aid. The Jovians agreed to help, launching a counter-offensive — but now the Martians have surrendered…


Script: Dan Abnett / Art: Mark Harrison / Letters: Annie Parkhouse

THE OUT // Book Two // Part Eleven!

The furthest edge of the universe, far into the future. Cyd Finlea is photo-journalist working for the publishers Global Neographic, travelling deep into outer space — otherwise known as THE OUT — and cataloguing the alien societies that she encounters. She left Earth ten years ago and has lost track of how far she is from home, but regardless she keeps going, accompanied by her sentient flatspace bag, seeking other ex-pat humans. Now, the rampaging extra-terrestrial race the Tankinar are tearing through the star system, destroying entire planets, and Cyd must flee for her life…


Script: Dan Abnett / Art: Tazio Bettin / Colours: Matt Soffe / Letters: Simon Bowland

DEXTER // Bulletopia Chapter Seven: Lordy Jordy, King of Everything / Part Three!

Gun-sharks Finnigan SINISTER and Ramone DEXTER were the best hitmen money could buy in the future city of Downlode. Having whacked Holy Moses Tanenbaum, a ganglord from an alternate dimension, they found killing him reset the continuum, meaning no one knew who they were. But now a rogue A.I. is at large, which took control of Sinister, forcing Dex to kill him. But Sinister has been resurrected, and Dex, Billi and Carrie are on the run, hoping to escape to Mangapore as the A.I.’s agents seek them. Now, they’re being menaced by synthisaurs…

PROG 2259 out now

BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2259 is OUT NOW!

Welcome to your latest salvo of circuit-shattering Thrills, Terrans, courtesy of the Comic of Tomorrow.

It’s that time of the week again, Squaxx, when we open the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic-sized portal in your reality and allow you to plunge into these future-shocked worlds.

Alongside the latest zarjaz instalments of The Out, Scarlet Traces, Dexter and The Diaboliks, this prog sees the start of all-new Judge Dredd story from the Williams and Weston droids, featuring a certain Klegg who’s become something of a Mega-City star in recent years. If you humes thought Hamilton was the must-see musical, then prepare yourselves for the Ol’ Stoney-Face extravaganza heading your way — this showstopper is truly not to be missed!

Indeed, as we head into the festive period, you may well be considering a trip to the theatre for a seasonal panto performance. It’s Terran behaviour that Tharg admits he struggles to understand, but at least it’s a fairly innocent pastime on this world compared to the Quothaarl, who toss mini-nukes at the actors during the closing number.

Still, while you may not be able to see Dredd on stage any time soon, you can wear him on your chest, thanks a new range of
Xmas jumpers available from shop.2000AD.com!

BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2243 is OUT NOW!

We surge into August not only with all guns blazing but pretty much every element red-hot too — it’s currently scorching in the Command Module, and not even a repurposed Burt, transformed into a desk-mounted fan, can sufficiently cool Tharg’s Betelgeusian body.

Probably the leather jumpsuit isn’t ideal attire for this kind of weather, but it’s discomfort he’s willing to put up with considering the level of authority it bestows. You think he can order around the creator-droids bedecked in Bermuda
shorts? Would a being of his magnitude be caught wearing flip-flops? We think not!

Anyway, these kind of extreme temperatures, and recent environmental catastrophes in Europe and the US, remind us of the climate change that this planet is undergoing, and the effect it has on every living thing across the globe. It needs to be
addressed and tackled if we still want a future, and Paul Goodenough’s Rewriting Extinction project is the latest initiative, bringing together three hundred writers and artists for the Most Important Comic Book on Earth.

Look out for it in October, and in the meantime visit rewritingextinction.com!

JUDGE DREDD // Now That’s What I Call Justice: All Time Top Fifty // Part Four!

Mega-City One, 2143 AD. Home to over 160 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America, with the irradiated wasteland known as the Cursed Earth to the west. Unemployment is rife, boredom universal and crime is rampant. Tensions rest on a knife-edge and only the zero-tolerance Judges can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law! Now, an outfit called Justice Watch is executing Judges who it says killed cits…


Script: Gordon Rennie / Art: Patrick Goddard / Colours: Dylan Teague / Letters: Annie Parkhouse

AQUILA // The Rivers of Hades //Book One // Part Six!

Following Spartacus’s failed revolt against his Roman masters, his rebel army was crucified. Amongst these was the slave-turned-gladiator AQUILA, who cried out to the gods for vengeance — and was answered by Ammit the Devourer, a deity that gifted him with immortality in return for keeping her fed with evil men’s souls. Now, Aquila has travelled into Hades to seek out the spirit of Nero, who knows Ammit’s location…


Script: Rory McConville / Art: Dan Cornwell / Colours: Len O’Grady / Letters: Simon Bowland

DEPARTMENT K // Cosmic Chaos // Part Ten

Mega-City One, 2143 AD. Justice Dept has many divisions tasked with dealing with the threats that face the metropolis, and DEPARTMENT K is a branch of Tek-Div, whose brief is to tackle interdimensional enemies. Headed by Judge Kirby, and comprising of intern Afua, Mechanismo droid Estabon and the alien Blackcurrant, they’re now helping a neighbouring reality. But members of the cult the Valox are trying to destroy the multiverse…


Script: James Peaty / Art: Paul Marshall / Colours: Dylan Teague / Letters: Jim Campbell

SKIP TRACER // Eden // Part Seven!

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, who, after a battlefield injury, was left with powerful psi-abilities. . Now, Blake and his infant daughter have been captured…


Script: Dan Abnett / Art: Tazio Bettin / Colours: John Charles / Letters: Simon Bowland

DEXTER // Bulletopia Chapter Six: Somewhere Beyond The Sea // Part One!

Gun-sharks Finnigan SINISTER and Ramone DEXTER were the best hitmen money could buy in the future city of Downlode. Having whacked Holy Moses Tanenbaum, a ganglord from an alternate dimension, they found killing him reset the continuum, meaning no one knew who they were. But now a rogue A.I. is at large, which took control of Sinister, forcing Dexter to kill him. But Sinister has been resurrected, and Dex, Billi and Carrie are on the run…

PROG 2242 out now

BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2242 is OUT NOW!

We bid you galactic greetings, Squaxx, as we thrust another thirty-pages of circuit-shattering Thrill-power into your eager, grasping hands. We know that many of you impatiently await this time of the week, hungry to get your sticky pseudopods on the latest pulse-pounding prog and catch up on the next instalments of our zarjaz roster of stories, so we won’t take up too much of your time with our verdant preamble.

Perhaps you’ve already breezed past and immersed yourself in Judge Dredd, as Joe investigates a series of badge-slayings. Maybe you muttered ‘Ta ta, Tharg’ as you flipped quickly to deconstruct the hellish action of Aquila instead. It’s possible that you simply couldn’t wait to consume the cosmic chaos of Department K and brushed these words aside like so much Quaxxann crumble.

It could be that, in the fight for your attention, our editorial emanations couldn’t compete with the intriguing developments in Sinister and Skip Tracer. If so, then perhaps the blame lies with us for assembling such a damn fine prog in the first place.

And those of you that are still here? Get reading, slowpokes! Do you need an invitation?
