2000AD Prog 394: Tomorrow’s evil in the City of the Damned! “What the drokk…?” “The Hell Street Blues!”

I'd have been too young to have watched Hill Street Blues, but I would probably have gotten the pun on this cover from Ron Smith.

Unfortunately the child … Continue reading 2000AD Prog 333: “Um… synthi-sausage!” On the trail of the World Eating Championships.

This prog has a Tharg cover by Colin Wyatt, apparently the only work he ever did for the Galaxy's Greatest. It's a pointillist pic, seemingly traced over a photo of an editorial droid wearing the Tharg rubber mask and boiler suit. The Nerve Centre features a reader who has created a composite picture of a … Continue reading 2000AD and Starlord Prog 92: I, Tharg, have journeyed from the depths of space… Do you dare to share my travels?
