JUDGE DREDD // A BETTER WORLD, Part Six

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.

In the process, she encountered a resurrected Anubite warrior, a member of the enemy race with whom the Luxine Empire was at war. Now, they’ve sought refuge on Tanzagar…


Script: Cavan Scott / Art: Luke Horsman / Letters: Simon Bowland

ENEMY EARTH // BOOK THREE, Part Ten

The near future. Mother Nature has turned against the people that live upon the Earth’s surface, and the planet’s flora and fauna have mutated and are viciously attacking humanity. As society crumbles, and survivors seek safety, young Zoe, who has lost her own family, has rescued Jules, who’s the prime minister’s son. Now, he’s being used by the military as a way to control the creatures — and aliens have arrived…

THISTLEBONE // THE DULE TREE, Part Six

Britain, 2020. It’s been over a year since journalist Seema Chaudry accompanied cult survivor Avril Easton back to the village of Harrowvale, where she suffered at the hands of THISTLEBONE worshippers, a crazed occult group that believed in an ancient woodland deity. One man in the village, Malcolm Kinniburgh, was keeping the Thistlebone legend alive — but it seems to be connected with an old ‘70s horror film…

I am The Mighty Tharg, genius green godhead at the helm of this mind-expanding experience!

Welcome, Thrill-seekers, to your latest weekly blast of circuit-scorching excitement, courtesy of my rivet-bustingly busy creator droids. As we surge into February, the tension builds in the scrotnig Dredd story A Better World, the unease grows on set of folk chiller The Dule Tree in Thistlebone, and the crew of the Full Tilt Boogie regroup.

It means zarjaz new Thrills are thundering towards us, and in two weeks’ time we’ll be exploring the worlds of a pair. First off, The Fall of Deadworld by Kek-W and Dave Kendall is back for the second half of Retribution after its mid-season break, so you can expect more body-horror madness as Death continues his decimation of an entire civilisation; and secondly we return to the reality-warping universe of Indigo Prime, with Kek-W (yep, it’s that droid again!) and Lee Carter picking up the story from Prog 2270’s one-off!

2000 AD Prog 2349 out now!


ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2349 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, your galactic green godhead at the helm of this cosmic comic!

At what point in the history of my pulse-pounding publication did you first encounter that severe-looking young Judge with the bob haircut?

Maybe you’re a long-term Squaxx and you were there for her debut in The Judge Child in 1980; perhaps you caught up a little later when she reappeared across the decades in stories like Destiny’s Angels, The Graveyard Shift or The Doomsday Scenario, after which she ascended to the highest office in Mega-City One. Or there were the series of solo adventures that were a regular part of the Megazine’s line-up during the nineties.

Either way, Judge Barbara Hershey has been a significant and iconic character for many, many years, both a reliable ally for Dredd and in more recent years someone with whom he clashed over policy. But now we wave farewell to Hershey as her post-Smiley mission has come to an end, and the pathogen that has been slowly consuming her can no longer be fended off.

Terrans, I bid you to raise a glass (or polystyrene cup, your choice) and say goodbye to Hershey — bringing the law to the lawless until death!

Earth, the twenty-second century, in the aftermath of a brutal war with an alien race called the Imishoi.

Welcome to the city of AZIMUTH, a data-driven metropolis, where anything is possible. Ruled by an aristocracy of the New Flesh, such concepts of life, death, and body-forms are fluid.

The New Flesh masters have been troubled by strange dreams and portents, which have predicted the coming of a stranger — none other than Ramone Dexter…

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2348 is OUT NOW!

Alien editor Tharg The Mighty here once again, delivering Thrill-power to your needy circuits!

Things are coming close to wrapping up in this prog, as we hit the penultimate parts of Judge Dredd thriller A Fallen Man, Azimuth, the 3riller Die Hoard, and Hershey’s elegiac outing The Cold in the Bones. Add to that a complete Future Shock, Fear & Loathing of Las Vegas, by the Hartley and Currie droids, and it’s an issue thrumming with sheer momentum. Be here in seven for multiple finales across the board!

Indeed, be here in a fortnight and you’ll have the pleasure of diving into the zarjaz Prog 2350, a bumper outing so expansive that it spills into Meg 460 too, which is on sale the same day (yes, like the zombie spectacular last year, you’ll get the most from the experience if you purchase both titles). So what’s the theme of 2023’s scrotnig special?

Well, long-term Squaxx will be aware that both Starlord and Tornado were merged with 2000 AD, bringing with them select characters such as Strontium Dog and Blackhawk. But what if, in an alternate past, Battle Action folded into the GGC, and the likes of Major Eazy, Hellman and El Mestizo joined the SF line-up? What then, Terrans? What then? Stay tuned!

All the scrotnig current stories wrap up this issue, Terrans, with Dexter and Jaegir returning next year, and Skip Tracer signing off on its last ever episode.

Usually for an autumn jumping-on prog I have a line-up of all-new strips to follow a series of endings such as this, but this year we’re doing something a little different. Prog 2300 is going to be a bumper 48-page bonanza of zombie horror as the undead infection spreads across the whole 2000 AD multiverse, affecting everyone from Sam Slade to the Survival Geeks, Rogue Trooper to the Mean Arena.

Why are the stars of the Galaxy’s Greatest being reduced to shambling, flesh-hungry corpses? Well, you’ll have to wait seven days to find out, but let me just say that September 2022 marks thirty years since Sabbat the Necromagus was defeated in the mega-epic Judgement Day… This is a story too big to contain within the covers of the pulse-pounding weekly, so it’ll be crossing over with Judge Dredd Megazine 448, also on sale next week (though make sure you read the prog first). The ghouls are go on 21 September, my Squaxx!

SKIP TRACER // Valhalla, part ten

The Cube, the 27th century. This vast city floating in the depths of space was refitted by the Earth-led Consociation as a solution to a universal housing problem.

Gun-sharks Finnigan SINISTER and Ramone DEXTER were the best hitmen money could buy in the future city of Downlode.

2000 AD Prog 2224 is out now!

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!

FERAL & FOE II // Part One!

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 were thought dead in a last
stand against Haggart Morn, when Bode released a malchemical bomb…
