ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2374 is OUT NOW!

Welcome to Thrill-central — I am The Mighty Tharg, cosmic conduit of all that is zarjaz!

The latest arc in The Fall of Deadworld saga, Retribution, reaches its explosive climax this prog, and alongside Full Tilt Boogie, Indigo Prime and the penultimate part of Thistlebone, we also have another complete Dredd thriller, A Dimensional Traveller’s Guide to Mega-City One, courtesy of Ken Niemand and Joe Currie — the art-bot drawing his first regular Dredd strip after previous outings in the Regened specials. Next up he’ll be teaming with Mike Carroll for a brand-new series coming later in the year!

As mentioned last issue, Prog 2375 will be a bumper 48-page edition of the Galaxy’s Greatest, and a good place for new readers to jump onboard. We’ve got new Dredd, new Proteus Vex, and the extra room gives us a chance to add some oneoff stories, so look out for Rogue Trooper: War Child by David Barnett and Paul Marshall as the G.I. encounters a disturbing faction of the Nort army that he’s never faced before.

With Duncan Jones’s Rogue movie heading your way in 2025, expect plenty of Nu Earth action over the next few months — blue will be this year’s colour of choice!

2000 AD Prog 2374 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!

THISTLEBONE // THE DULE TREE, Part Eleven

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…

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2373 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, and I bid you welcome to another circuit-shattering Thrill-slam!

Steel your diodes, my Squaxx, as your weekly thirty-two pages of zarjazness crashes into this reality with the sole task of rewiring your imaginations. Joining the latest instalments of Thistlebone, Full Tilt Boogie, Indigo Prime and The Fall of Deadworld in this edition of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic is a complete Dredd thriller from the Niemand and Assirelli droids!

In fact, Retribution comes to its scrotnig finale next issue, paving the way for some ghafflebette new stories to commence in the bumper Prog 2375, the first of four 48-pagers scheduled for 2024, which will allow for extra stories and content.

Launching in #2375 is the ten-page opening episode of Proteus Vex: Devious by Mike Carroll and Jake Lynch, another mind-melting series of cosmic alien weirdness, picking up after the events of previous arc Crawlspace last year. Vex, seen plunging to an apparent fiery fate at the climax to that story, is being hunted by the various warring factions, and Midnight Indicating Shame is fomenting revolution, building a rebellion against the Citheronian authority.

Don’t miss it, Terrans!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2372 is OUT NOW!

Bow before my Mightiness, for I am Tharg, Betelgeusian being of immense zarjazness!

We reach the nerve-jangling finale to the current Dredd thriller A Better World this prog, and indeed the whole issue is so stuffed with galactic goodness that it’s spilled out onto the back page. What other comic can give you this kind of uninterrupted cosmic magnificence — Indigo Prime, Thistlebone, The Fall of Deadworld and Full Tilt Boogie, bang after bang after bang!

Well, I can think of another title that’s equally scrotnig, and it’s of course the Judge Dredd Megazine — anything released from the House of Tharg is never less than one hundred per cent ghafflebette — and if you haven’t yet picked up Meg 465, I highly recommend you do so, for within you’ll find the start of a new Devlin Waugh series by Ales Kot and Steven Austin, as well as a complete Mega-City 2099 story from Ken Niemand and Conor Boyle, alongside Dredd, DeMarco, P.I., and Harrower Squad.

Add to that tributes to the much-missed artists Ian Gibson and John Burns, an interview with Wireheads writer Mark Eyles, and much more, it’s another packed 128 pages you can’t afford to miss, Terrans!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2371 is OUT NOW!

I am The Mighty Tharg, all-powerful alien editor of this award-winning sci-fi anthology!

As we slide off the tail-end of February, it means that the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic has reached another ghafflebette milestone — yes, my illustrious organ, and, of course, by extension its most famous son, Judge Dredd, who’s been with it since the second prog, are both an incredible forty-seven years old.

Traditionally on your planet, when it’s somebody’s birthday, they’re given presents to celebrate the occasion — but for this Quaxxann, I’ve always been one to fly in the face of what’s expected, so rather than ask all you Squaxx to supplicate yourselves before me and bring offerings of gratitude, instead it’ll be I who will be giving you a gift — the gift of Thrill-power!

What better way to toast these forty-seven years of zarjazness than with an issue stuffed with circuit-shattering strips like Dredd’s current story A Better World, Thistlebone, The Fall of Deadworld, Indigo Prime and Full Tilt Boogie — an awesome line-up showcasing the work of my creator-meks, who fill these pages with their talent every week, and have done for over four and a half decades.

Join me and salute them, humes!

ATTENTION, EARTHLETS – 2000 AD Prog 2370 is OUT NOW!

Know me by my Betelgeusian name for I am Tharg The Mighty, alien editor of this SF weekly!

Time once again to engage your Thrill-receptors, Terrans, as the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic is back to blast open your imaginations and transport you to worlds beyond the known universe. Two new stories join the line-up this prog alongside Dredd, Full Tilt Boogie and Thistlebone — first up, we return to Deadworld for the concluding half of Retribution, which took a break in November last year, as Judge Eastwood and co team up with the remains of a Sov squad to take on Sidney De’Ath (currently inhabiting the corpse of his father!).

Also back is Indigo Prime, exactly one hundred issues since its last appearance, with a prologue story before the series kicks off proper next week. The multidimensional troubleshooting company has been taken over by rival corporation ICP, and founder Clive Vista has been killed alongside most of his personnel, but the wily CEO may just have set up a plan to insure IP’s secrets are not stolen — one involving Sauron mercenary Tyranny Rex…

So there’s folk horror, apocalyptic destruction, space/time weirdness and law enforcement all in thirty-two pages… that enough for you, humes?
