I am The Mighty Tharg, your genial green guide to the outer reaches of the Thrillverse!
It’s that time of the week once again, Terrans, to cast off the shackles of everyday reality and plunge into the future-shocked worlds of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic. Inside you’ll find the latest instalments of Brink, Helium and Silver, plus a complete case for Judge Dredd courtesy of the Niemand & Dyer droids, and the start of a new 3riller by Paul Starkey & Paul Marshall!
I’ve in fact just returned from Saturn, where I was asked to appear as a guest at the four hundred and fiftieth CosmiCon, one of the universe’s most revered conventions, where the great and the good of galactic publishing mingle alongside some B-list actors and figurine traders. Up on stage, in front of a throng of thousands, I was part of the keynote panel ‘Who is the Most Powerful Being in Comics Today (and Why They Should be Adulated Accordingly)’, and I made my case my Mighty Self, to much sage nodding from my peers and raucous cheers from the crowd.
Can’t say I was surprised when they awarded me the accolade, but it’s nice for it to be officially recognised!
2000 AD Prog 2480 is out now from all good newsagents and comic book stores, plus digitally from our webshop and apps! Don’t forget that if you buy an issue of 2000 AD in the first week of its release then postage in the UK is free!
JUDGE DREDD // SILENT WITNESS
Mega-City One, 2147 AD. Home to over 250 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America, with the toxic Black Atlantic to the east, and the irradiated Cursed Earth to the west. Tensions are on a knife-edge, crime is rampant, and only the Judges — empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law!
HELIUM // RED OCTOBER, Part Five
The far future. It has been three hundred years since the Great War ended, and eightyfive per cent of the Earth’s surface now lies beneath a gaseous ocean known as the Poison Belt. The survivors live above the lethal fugue, but a Professor Bloom has emerged from a city below the belt, claiming he can make the planet habitable again. Constable Hodge was tasked with protecting him, but it came at great cost…
SILVER // MALIGNANT, Part Four
Earth, the year 2001. A group of armed survivors sought out the resting place of a five hundred-year-old vampire, who may just help them against the alien Sepsis, who invaded the planet a few decades earlier. The vamp, called Baroness DeSilva, has proved powerful in battling the extra-terrestrials, and now, having aided the rebels in destroying Sepsis infrastructure, has just been instrumental in blowing up a nuclear facility…
BRINK // THE CALL OF THE VOID, Part Nine
The late 21st century, and through environmental catastrophe and industrial overload Earth has been reduced to a wasteland. Mankind finally evacuated the planet in 2072 and millions were housed in a number of deep-space Habitats. But life on these cramped, overcrowded stations is tense, often spilling over into madness. Sects are rife, and Bridget Kurtis of the Habitat Security Division is investigating their reach…
THARG’S 3RILLERS // POSTER GIRL
Three episodes, one complete, self-contained story — a condensed hit of supercharged Thrill-power beamed to you directly from the Nerve Centre! In the near future, the Avalon Project created supersoldiers to fight wars and protect the UK. Years later, these experimental troops are all dead, their identities mostly forgotten, but one group of journalists think they can track down a survivor…
