Cover Art Robot: Colin Wilson

Mega-City One traffic chaos smashes onto this weeks cover

My pick of the Prog is: Strontium Dog

Script Robot: Alan Grant

Art Robot: Ezquerra

Lettering Robot: Steve Potter

Portrait of a Mutant part 17 shows the aftermath of Johnny Alpha‘s escape where Kreelman, Johnny‘s father finds out his daughter assisted Johnny and the Mutant Generals meet at their rendezvous point at Stone Henge to regroup and solidify their resolve to take down the Kreelers. Middenface has become one of my favourite characters especially with his well written Scots dialect and busts out a word of mine again (I think this is at least the second time he has said it): “laldy”.

Prog 219 takes a hammering! Join me on the next one to see who/what grabs the pick of Prog 220.

Florix Grabundae!
