By John Freeman on 13 June 2026 • ( 0 )

The latest issue of indie comics The77 – Issue 12 – offers another great lineup of strips, and is available to order now, if you didn’t back it the Kickstarter campaign.

This issue offers all new content by various creators, plus a choice of covers by Clint Langley and Hal Laren.

The77 Issue 12 - cover by Clint Langley — *The77 Issue 12 – main cover by Clint Langley, variant cover by Hal Laren*

(If you’re a fan of Hal’s work, don’t forget the Kickstarter for his latest adventure, Trojan Cobalt, is currently up and running now!)

Of course, while we know most readers check out The77 for its impressive lineup of all-action adventure, we’re longtime fans of Lew Stringer’s strips here at downthetubes, so we flicked straight to the latest episode of his bonkers “Sgt. Shouty of the Moon Force” strip when our copy arrived earlier this week in the downthetubes dungeon! His latest crazy adventure features a wedding and the return of Hitler… wait, what!? You’ll just have to buy a copy to find out more!

Oh no! It's that bloomin' Hitler! On the Moon in the year 2627 and disrupting the wedding of Copper Scarlet and The Error! It's all happening in the latest episode of Sgt. Shouty of the Moon Force by and ©️ Lew Stringer, in The77 No.12, available to order now — Oh no! It’s that bloomin’ Hitler!
