ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2379 is OUT NOW!
I am The Mighty Tharg, bringer of Thrills to a planet beset by brain-sapping mundanity!
Yes, it’s that time of the week again, my Squaxx, when you get to escape everyday reality — if just for the time it takes to peruse and absorb these pulse-pounding pages — and be transported to the circuit-shattering worlds of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic. Inside this ghafflebette prog, you’ll find the latest high-octane instalments of Judge Dredd, Brink, Aquila, Proteus Vex and Indigo Prime, brought to you by the fevered imaginations of my creator droids.
Chained as they are in their work-cubicles, channelling every key-tap and pencil-stroke through my office so I get to oversee the entire process and ensure that it’s all at the necessary level of zarjazosity, the whole Command Module meshes together as a finely tuned machine… staffed by machines! Many of you may be wondering, is this a utopian vision of the future I can get behind — mechanoids programmed to deliver high-intensity entertainment under the direct rule of an alien overlord, who demands nothing less than total subservience?
Well, all I can say is, it works for me — and the end result is pretty damn scrotnig!
2000 AD Prog 2379 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!
