2000AD Storytime: Total War!

Borrag Thung, Zig Forumsrrective officers. After a hard week I'd like to help you all recharge your batteries this weekend with no less than 124 pages of concentrated Thrill-Power, ripped straight from the pages of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic. Get it while you can, before the Judges trace this connection, kick in my door and 'cube me for 20 years for gross IP violations.

It'll be two fists of law and order tonight, as I have a pair of stories scanned for you. First up is "Terror".

Colin MacNeil is the Art Droid for "Terror".

Squaxx Dek Thargo will of course remember MacNeil for his work illustrating "America", to which this story is a follow-up.

Even though it's the same artist, he brings a new style to a new adventure.

I've called his colouring in this Thrill as "Neon Noir".

The colours are vibrant, but oddly enough as bright as they are they ironically accentuate the darkness, the cold wash of reflected flourescence in a place plunged into night.

Look at those pearly whites. 15 years of gruelling training and conversion into a secular monk of Law is worth it for the Justice Department dental plan.

You know, I was taught to watch for booby traps in my first week in the Army reserves. Judges got a bit complacent here.

Boy I wish Zig Forums gave a shit about 2000AD

Sorry for the wait, page order got mixed-up there.

Dredd catches you up on the backstory here.

My personal favourite page out of the story.

Well, we do get decent threads from time to time. Hopefully no-one's so parochial as to turn their nose up at a free comic just because it ain't capes.

Wagner gives you a taste of classic America Book 1 here with Dredd taking some time out to monologue how he sees the world.

The white gutters become quite jarirng suddenly.

They won't stay long, almost this entire comic takes place at night.

Spoilered for sexiness. Sonny-boy's one smoooooooooooooooooooth operator.

Aw fuck yeah, I'll join in with this. Thanks user!

This is probably the most implausible scene in the story. Dude is told he almost died, gets discharged the very same morning, but still doesn't even bat an eyelid.

Just lucky that the Judges got plenty of evidence with the videotaping last night that Zondra wasn't unto anal play, otherwise this ruse would be busted pretty quick.

Spoiled for more gymnastics, even if it's in tasteful silhouette I don't want to activate a jannie.

I wish more reprints of Dredd comics kept the cliffhangers in there - like marking where a prog ends.

You can usually tell, but they make good chapter points if you want to take a break and it's nice knowing the rhythm of a story.

I wish more people gave a shit about 2000AD!

It's a hard one, the shorter episodes and the sheer amount of it can make it hard to figure out where to start - and lets not pretend that "start at the first one" is a useful suggestion for everyone.

It's kind of like a soap opera - Weekly instalments that really you just need to drop into occasionally to enjoy, you don't need to be a super fan. You can always pick up context as you go.

You haven't missed a page guys, just accidentally scanned the same page twice so I ended up with two page-33s
