FERAL & FOE II // Part Two!
It is five years after the Last-of-All-War, when the Monarchy succeeded in defeating the Malign Lord. With their leader dead, his minions are scattered, fleeing retribution from the Wretchfinders. Necromancer Bode and warrior Wrath are two such beings, and were offered a deal — hunt and kill their own kind or be declared FERAL & FOE. Now, they’ve inadvertently swapped bodies…

VISIONS OF DEADWORLD // You Give Me Fever!
The planet that eventually became known as DEADWORLD was once a regular civilisation existing in a dimension parallel to our own. But the end of days is coming, and creatures known as the Dark Judges are spreading their contagion, exterminating all life, which they see as a crime. Zombie ‘greys’ are doing their bidding, having consumed the Dead Fluids, and other monstrosities stalk the streets, preying on survivors…

THISTLEBONE // POISONED ROOTS // Part Five!
Britain, 2020. It’s been over a year since journalist Seema Chaudry accompanied cult survivor Avril Easton back to the village of Harrowvale, the site of her terryifying experiences at the hands of Jasper Hillman’s THISTLEBONE worshippers, a crazed occult group that believed in an ancient woodland deity. In the process of researching for a book on the Thistlebone legend, Seema’s gone to interview Hillman in prison…

TERROR TALES // Half Life!
Experience the terrifying side of Thrill-power with these one-off tales from beyond the veil of sanity. Whether they be ghostly goings-on that send shivers up the spine or guts-to-the-wall splatterfests that sear the retina and paralyse the mind, nothing is what it seems in these glimpses of a terrifying realm beyond our own. When Aaron Doplo is attacked by a mystery assailant, he’s only the first victim. More soon follow…
2000 AD Prog 2224 is out now, with more new Judge Dredd, Thistlebone and Tharg’s 3rillers, plus all new Feral & Foe!
BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS – Prog 2224 is OUT NOW!
We trust your circuits are fully prepped and your diodes double-shielded, Terrans, as we launch into another zarjaz issue of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic.
While we have the final episodes of both Who Killed Captain Cookies? and Nakka of the S.T.A.R.S — be here in seven for the start of Judge Dredd: A Penitent Man by Ken Niemand and Tom Foster, and the return of Kek-W and Dave Kendall’s Visions of Deadworld — this prog features the double-length opening chapter of the second series of Feral & Foe from the Abnett and Elson droids.
The previous arc ended with Wrath, Bode and Krodgun making a last stand against the forces of Haggart Morn, and Bode released his malchemical energy, causing a huge explosion. They’ve been missing assumed dead since… find out what happened inside!
Fantasy has the occasional place in these pages, but it’s rarely done straight — Sláine, of course, takes its nod from Celtic myths, and Kingmaker mixes its sword n’ sorcery with SF.
Feral & Foe’s irreverent, humorous approach to the genre’s tropes is typical of how my creator-meks like to come at something from a fresh angle — it’s the 2000 AD way!
2000 AD Prog 2224 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!
