2000AD has just announced 2000 AD Regened, its brand new all-ages title, for Free Comic Book Day 2018!
2000 AD Regened is a riotous new comic featuring original, full-colour strips packed with thrill-power for Earthlets of all inception dates and with FCBD the biggest date in the comic book calendar, the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic has brought together its greatest heroes for a title for all ages – from eight to eight million!
In this issue:
• Cadet Judge Dredd upholds the law in a blistering crime caper at an Aeroball game by Matt Smith and Neil Googe
• Mutant bounty hunter Johnny Alpha earns his Strontium Dog badge from Alec Worley and Ben Willsher
• “Tharg’s Future Shocks” present the wonderful world of HumanCraft by Ned Hartley and Tanya Roberts
• Help Chet Jetstream escape Hell Island with Henry Flint
• Everyone’s favourite teenage alien delinquents return – and they mean to cause some chaos in “D.R. & Quinch Hijack Free Comic Book Day” from Owen Michael Johnson, Colin Bell and INDIO
Over on Twitter, writer Arthur Wyatt has enthused about the project – and reveals there’s also a one-pager by him in the title, drawn by Pye Parr.
The special issue will be available exclusively in print from participating comic book stores on Free Comic Day, May 5 2018.
“At 2000AD we’re thrilled to once again be involved in Free Comic Book Day 2018,” said editor Keith Richardson. “In the spirit of what this momentous day in the comics calendar represents, our droids have been working overtime to assemble a truly special comic, intended to deliver a healthy dose of craziness to the hands of Earthlets young and old!”
Free Comic Book Day is a single day when participating comic book specialty shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely free to anyone who comes into their shops.
