Welcome back to yet another mighty DoomRocket preview of 2000 AD, where only the most scrotnig of sequentials are worthy enough to meet the gaze of you, our finest readers!

You are not going to believe your optical scanners when you read this week’s edition of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, my fellow squaxx—we’ve just cracked open the latest programme and… the circuits! They are frying!

It’s Thrill-power as you like it! Nasty, mean, terrifying, awe-inspiring! It begins with “Control”, the latest micro-epic from the Williams, Weston, Bythe & Parkhouse droids; SJS Judge Pin has set her sights on Judge Dredd, knowing full well that Joe isn’t the type of target that keeps still! Wait until you see what the dread Pin has in store for our Mega-City beat cop!

The cover attraction this week is Indigo Prime: “Fall of the House of Vista”, where Major Arcana can be seen putting quite a bit on the line to gain access into the unknowable! The Christhulhu has extended its squiddy tentacles out into the world, delivering its own unique brand of cosmic terror! Nothing a bit of Prime can’t nip in the bud, eh? Eh?? Well??!

Of course Absalom continues its march towards the inevitable. Next week’s prog will feature the final chapter in Ol’ ‘Arry’s storied life—it’s been a winding, demon-bouncing ride, and to think that it’s soon at an end brings this odd moisture to our optical sockets. What are these sensations in our upper torso cavities? Is this… sadness?

Earthlets! Lower your eyes and pay homage to this 10-page preview of prog 2142, courtesy of Tharg and his minions at 2000 AD!
