Welcome to Prog 228 featuring ‘The Mean Arena‘, ‘Nemesis the Warlock‘, ‘Strontium Dog‘, ‘Rogue Trooper‘ and ‘Judge Dredd‘, published on 5 September 1981.
Cover Art Robot: Dave Gibbons
Rogue storms the cover of his debut Prog!
My pick of the Prog is: Judge Dredd
Script Robot: TB Grover
Art Robot: Brian Bolland
Lettering Robot: T Frame
Judge Death Lives concludes in this Prog. I’m a bit disappointed with this in the sense of I feel like Death had been locked inside Anderson for so long and we meet the other Dark Judges but our time with them is brief. I know we’ll see more of them but I felt we could have done with a lot more mayhem caused by the hallowed quartet before they got put back in the toy box for later. But, that being said, I still loved this episode and the artwork from Bolland is as superb as ever. I thought the way in which Anderson is able to best the Dark Judges was genius and, I think if I had read this as a kid I would have been blown away by it as I probably wouldn’t have seen it coming. Again, my experience is tarnished by coming to these stories so late in life after I have been royally sullied and buggered by life.
Prog 228 banished into psychic oblivion! Join me on the next one to see who/what grabs the pick of Prog 229.
Florix Grabundae!
