Welcome to my personal Prog slog through 2000AD. Here, I post daily about my favourite story from each Prog. I started doing this as a means of focusing my attention on something. A hobby, if you will. Something that will bring joy and fond memories for fans as well as draw attention to and hopefully bring in new readers to The Galaxy’s Greatest Comic. I have never read these Progs before. I recall reading some of Flesh at some point in my childhood, knew of Judge Dredd from a PlayStation One game and then the 1995 Movie, Rogue Trooper from the PlayStation 2 Game and had heard of other stories and seen other characters from seeing posts online. So I’m pretty much experiencing most of these stories as an intergalactic virgin. Or something. So if you are an established reader whose loyalty to Tharg has been unwavering, or if you’ve dropped off reading 2000AD, lie somewhere in between or if you are a newcomer to The Galaxy’s Greatest Comic then please let me know via the comments or hit me up on my socials!

Without further ado…

Welcome to Prog 362 featuring ‘Tharg The Mighty‘, ‘Sláine‘, ‘Rogue Trooper‘, ‘Time Twisters‘ and ‘Judge Dredd‘, published on 31 March 1984.

Cover Art Robot: Brett Ewins

Dredd gets on his bike on this weeks cover.

My pick of the Prog is: Tharg’s Future-Shocks

Script Robot: Alan Hebden

Art Robot: Cliff Robinson

Lettering Robot: Steve Potter

Dead Clever shows us the dark background of the new educational product ‘Pocket Brain‘ in a super short but highly entertaining, dark and amusing tale comprising industrial espionage. I do wish this had been afforded a few more pages as it felt a bit too brief.

 

Prog 362 has its brains picked! Join me on the next one to see who/what grabs the pick of Prog 363.

Florix Grabundae!
