ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2389 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, cosmic source for all that is zarjaz — join me on a galactic journey!

We slip into July, and as we become fully embedded in the holiday season it’s fitting that this week sees the release of 2024’s 2000 AD Sci-Fi Special, a self-contained 48-page issue that’s the ideal accompaniment to your vacation travels, which features some of your favourite characters from the pages of the GGC. Or does it…?

For this year’s summer special has some rather unusual variations on the standard line-up, plucked from an alternate reality when the strips fell through a nearby interdimensional wormhole. In that universe, top cop in MC-1 is Judge Alpha, a mutant given Special Dispensation to enforce the law; alongside him you’ll find the Robo-Sharks, a pair of stone-cold guns-for-hire that hunt missing or malfunctioning droids, undead aeroball team the Harlem Zombos, dread pirate captain Stickleback, and wanted Search/Destroy agent Friday otherwise known as the Rogue/Dog.

It’s the mash-up to end all mash-ups — don’t miss it! Meanwhile, this prog contains the double-length final episode of the Proteus Vex saga — an alien extravaganza unlike any other!

2000 AD Prog 2389 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!

JUDGE DREDD // THE BAM-HUNTERS, Part One

Mega-City One, 2146 AD. Home to over 200 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America, with the irradiated Cursed Earth to the west and the toxic Black Atlantic on the eastern side. Crime is rampant, and only future cops the Judges — empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law!

Script: Dan Abnett / Art: INJ Culbard / Letters: Simon Bowland

BRINK // CONSUMED, Part Twelve

The late 21st century, and through environmental catastrophe and industrial overload Earth has been reduced to a wasteland. Mankind finally evacuated the planet in 2072 and millions were housed in a number of deep-space Habitats. But life on these cramped, overcrowded stations is tense, often spilling over into madness. Sects are rife, and Bridget Kurtis of the Habitat Security Division is investigating their reach…

Script: Geoffrey D. Wessel / Art: Dan Cornwell /Colours: Chris Blythe / Letters: Jim Campbell

ROGUE TROOPER // SOUTHER BELLE, Part Four

Nu Earth, site of a galactic war between the Norts and the Southers, where the atmosphere has been rendered poisonous. So the Southers created the Genetic Infantrymen, bred to be immune to the pollutants — G.I.s like ROGUE TROOPER, the last of his kind. Together with biochip buddies Helm, Gunnar and Bagman, they’re searching for the traitor that sold them out. Now, they’re seeking to save a G.I. ‘Doll’…

Script: Mike Carroll / Art: Jake Lynch / Colours: Jim Boswell / Letters: Simon Bowland

PROTEUS VEX // DEVIOUS, Part Fifteen

The far future. The centuries-long war between the Alliance and the Obdurate people is over, a conflict ended when the Alliance teleported a dying white dwarf star into the Obdurate system. Imperium agent PROTEUS VEX — who is operated by a flesh-pilot — became an enemy of the Alliance when he released info about past war crimes. In the wake of the war with the Scorchers, Vex has been presumed dead, but he’s alive…

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2388 is OUT NOW!

Gaze upon me, The Mighty Tharg, for I am the bringer of Thrill-power — let it sizzle your optics!

Welcome once again, my Squaxx, to another weekly circuit-smasher, where the zarjazosity explodes from the page and frazzles your senses. Two new stories join the line-up this prog — there’s a complete Dredd thriller from the Niemand and McCrea droids, and I publish the winning story from Thought Bubble script and portfolio competition victors Ed Whiting and Sinu Chandrasenan, the chilling Terror Tale The Essence of the Piece.

Elsewhere, there’s more unsettling intrigue in Brink, high-octane mayhem in Rogue Trooper, and deep-space drama Proteus Vex reaches its penultimate episode — be here in seven for the scrotnig double-length finale!

If you experienced a rumbling in the galactic firmament recently, it’s no doubt because of the wormhole that opened in your star system the other day. Amongst the objects that tumbled through from a parallel dimension were pages from a version of 2000 AD that exists there. So curious was I about them that I’ve decided to publish them in this year’s Sci-Fi Special. Look out for it on 3 July and prepare to be amazed!

TERROR TALES // THE ESSENCE OF THE PIECE

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!

I am The Mighty Tharg, all-powerful alien editor of this brain-sizzling soup of Thrill-power!

Indeed, the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic is much like a cauldron into which various ingredients are dropped and stirred, creating a flavoursome mix where the components complement each other and the result is a tasty stew of zarjazness.

Take, for example, the dark, bitter tang of Judge Dredd, smoky with menace as the lawman heads deeper into the Undercity in pursuit of the juves searching for the mythical monster Iron Teeth — its spine-tingling texture works perfectly with the dayglo sweetness of Intestinauts, that sugar underscored with notes of gut-bot. Then there’s the slow-burn unease of Brink, lingering on the palate long after the story is finished, its myriad elements revealing themselves over time, clashing with the oddball sprinkles of alien weirdness that Proteus Vex brings, sharp snaps that blossom in the imagination like synaptic fireworks.

Add to that the caffeine rush of the 3riller, superheated for maximum impact, and you hold in your hands quite the delicacy, carefully put together by this Betelgeusian chef and my minions. Consume with a favourite beverage, and enjoy, Terrans!

This prog a new story joins the ghafflebette line-up of Judge Dredd, Brink, Proteus Vex and Intestinauts as script-droid David Baillie and artbot Nick Brokenshire collaborate on the latest 3riller to be fired from my Thrill-creation tank, Blue Skies Over Deadwick!

If the Command Module had landed in a different country back in 1977, maybe I wouldn’t be as interested as the varying temperatures outside the Nerve Centre — but for a twist of the navi- comp, 2000 AD could be coming to you from the North Pole, and Judge Shako would be the lead character…

I am Tharg The Mighty, enemy of mundanity and scourge of Thrill-suckers everywhere!

Welcome, my Squaxx, to the latest blast of zarjazosity courtesy of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic — pure, undiluted graphic excitement beamed directly into your eyeballs. This prog we’ve got two new stories starting — future lawman Judge Dredd investigates a mythical monster in Iron Teeth by Ken Niemand and Nick Percival, and those microscopic gut-champions Intestinauts are back for another adventure in Busted Flush by the regular creative team of Arthur Wyatt and Pye Parr. Plus there’s more Brink and Proteus Vex, and Aquila reaches the climax to its current arc!

JUDGE DREDD // IRON TEETH, Part One

Mega-City One, 2146 AD. Home to over 200 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America, where poverty and overcrowding is rife and tensions run a constant knife-edge. Crime is rampant, and only future cops the Judges — empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law!

Script: Dan Abnett / Art: INJ Culbard / Letters: Simon Bowland

BRINK // CONSUMED, Part Five

The late 21st century, and through environmental catastrophe and industrial overload Earth has been reduced to a wasteland. Mankind finally evacuated the planet in 2072 and millions were housed in a number of deep-space Habitats. But life on these cramped, overcrowded stations is tense, often spilling over into madness. Sects are rife, and Bridget Kurtis of the Habitat Security Division is investigating their reach…

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

AQUILA // THE RIVERS OF HADES BOOK TWO, 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 and retrieved the spirit of Nero, who knows Ammit’s location…

Script: Arthur Wyatt / Art & Letters: Pye Parr

INTESTINAUTS // BUSTED FLUSH, Part One

For stomach upsets, future technology has developed nano-robots called INTESTINAUTS, who fight parasites in the gut. These micro-droids are ingested orally, then once their brave battle against the various horrors that can be found in the stomach is over, they take the Big Flush, ready to be uploaded back to headquarters, where their accrued knowledge of the enemy will help them in future missions…

PROTEUS VEX // DEVIOUS, Part Eight

The far future. The centuries-long war between the Alliance and the Obdurate people is over, a conflict ended when the Alliance teleported a dying white dwarf star into the Obdurate system. Imperium agent PROTEUS VEX — who is operated by a flesh-pilot — became an enemy of the Alliance when he released info about past war crimes. In the wake of the war with the Scorchers, Vex is missing, presumed dead…

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2381 is OUT NOW!

Call me The Mighty Tharg, Betelgeusian overlord at the helm of this awesome anthology!

Two Thrills come to their scrotnig finales this prog, Terrans — Indigo Prime blows the roof off with its mind-expanding conclusion to Black Monday, while Dredd’s life-or-death struggle in the frozen wastes reaches its climax as the lawman goes head-to-head with the rampaging grizzly bear that’s stalked him for the last five episodes. Will he prevail? Or will he end up as so much ursine dung on the side of a mountain? There’s only one way to find out, and, believe me, I’m not stopping you, my Squaxx — tear your eyes from my verdant verbiage and go find out for yourselves!

That means joining Aquila, Brink and Proteus Vex next week we’ve go two new zarjaz stories — Ken Niemand and Nick Percival collaborate on seriously scary Dredd chiller Iron Teeth; and Arthur Wyatt and Pye Parr reunite for the latest Intestinauts saga Busted Flush. It’s high-octane action at the micro-level!

Just enough space for the hard sell from Quaxxann — if you don’t already have it on your shelf, get the Essential Psi-Judge Anderson: Satan. Right. Now. You won’t regret it, humes!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2380 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, alien architect of the awesome SF anthology you’re all immersed in!

Welcome back to Thrill-central, my Squaxx, where excitement and adventure is guaranteed.

Take a look at the line-up within this prog and try not to salivate on the pages — Dredd’s desperate trek for survival reaches its penultimate part in Rob Williams and RM Guera’s Rend & Tear With Tooth & Claw; Bridget Kurtis and co arrive at Belleholme Habitat and already the dogged Kurtis is keen to look into its police files in the Abnett and Culbard droids’ Brink; Aquila’s in the thick of battle as the whole of Hades rises up in rebellion, courtesy of Gordon Rennie and Patrick Goddard; Proteus Vex comes under dissection in Devious by the Carroll and Lynch droids; and the borders between realities break down entirely in the penultimate part of Indigo Prime: Black Monday by Kek-W and Lee Carter. An extraordinary panoply of worlds, all contained within these scrotnig covers, I think you’ll agree!

Where else would you find such a circuit-shattering breadth of genres and styles, Terrans? Only in the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic do we push the artform to its very limits!
