Welcome to Prog 176 featuring ‘Tharg the Mighty‘, ‘Stainless Steel Rat‘, ‘Ro-Jaws’ Robo-Tales‘ and ‘Judge Dredd‘, published on 6 September 1980.

Cover Art Robot: Carlos Ezquerra

King’s Reach Tower takes off on this weeks cover as Tharg shoots off!

My pick of the Prog is: Ro-Jaws’ Robo-Tales

Script Robot: Alan Moore

Art Robot: Dave Gibbons

Lettering Robot: Tom Frame

In the second of Ro-Jaws‘ offerings this Prog, entitled The Dating Game, we see the troubles that befell Myron Fooble. In a bid to find a romantic partner he filled in a form and soon found a match, but not one he had intended. Alan Moore once again treats us to a delicious twist and a spin on the whole “be careful what you wish for” trope…

Prog 176 sent to the garbage grinder! Join me on the next one to see who/what grabs the pick of Prog 177.

Florix Grabundae!
