2000AD 2115 – Cranking up the Action!

2000AD 2115 - Cover

Wrapped in a fantastic cover by Cliff Robinson and Dylan Teague, here’s another cracking issue of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic 2000AD on sale now in all good newsagents, comic shops and via various digital platforms.

The new Judge Dredd story from John Wagner with art by Colin MacNeil gets off to a terrific start, both script and art, as Dredd’s mission for the Chief Judge is diverted by a siege that’s attracted the attention of a dedicated but abrasive Law-Mek.

Steven Austin also delivers some great art on the new “3hrillers” story from Robert Murphy, and you definitely won’t be disappointed with the all-out action finale to “Fiends of the Eastern Front”, which has been a delight over the last few progs.

Definitely an issue well worth your attention!

Don’t forget Judge Dredd Megazine, with the first part of Battle Presents: Operation Overlord is on sale now, too!

In this issue:
