A quick Friday plug for Numbercruncher which starts in the New Year in the Judge Dredd Megazine.
Created by Si Spurrier and PJ Holden, it’s a creator owned series and we reckon that it deserves support since it is, for publishers Rebellion, a bit of an experiment.
PJ Holden tells us Numbercruncher will be 8 page chunks and will run for 10 episodes, along with the usual “bunch of cool stuff” in the Meg.
Here’s the cover fr the opening episode (logo designed in house by Simon Parr).
You can buy the Megazine in all good newsagents and, if you’re in the US or elsewhere, you should be able to buy the Meg online at Clickwheel (www.clickwheel.net/features/229) and the 2000AD online shop.

Comics Heroes #4 has a 4 page taster of this, in the Sidekick comic (I think, I don’t have it yet).
Now seems as good a time as any to drop in a mention that there is now a 2000AD news aggregator.
That’s a handy 2000AD link, cheers. And since we’re trading links and mentioning Comic Heroes, here’s the official site for that magazine (http://www.comicheroesmagazine.com/) and (its Facebook page.
Lew Stringer posted a great overview of #4 here on his brilliant British comics blog
