Cover Art Robot: Brian Bolland

Contract killers of Mega-City One make this weeks cover.

My pick of the Prog is: Judge Dredd

Script Robot: TB Grover

Art Robot: Ron Smith

Lettering Robot: Tom Frame

This week, Judge Dredd tackles another racket – The Blitz Agencies. Due to being inrormed they’re being forced to move to the Mark Clark Block, Reeta and Teddington Lumly face despair as they would rather die than move there. Unable to commit suicide, they decide to take out a hit on themselves via a Blitz Agency. But, and this is a big but (ooo-err), their luck changes when they find out it was a clerical error and they are set to be moved to a much nicer block. But, the hit is set in stone, and so it goes ahead. Or tries to. Teddington is taken out but Reeta calls for assistance from the Judges. Dredd takes down the contract killers and Reeta ends up being sent to the Cubes for fifteen years.

Prog 215 blitzed! Join me on the next one to see who/what grabs the pick of Prog 216.

Florix Grabundae!
