JUDGE DREDD // FIRST MAN UP by Rob Williams (w) RM Guera (a) Giulia Brusco (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)
It looks like the next big arc for Dredd here, with a good build-up - even though we don’t know much about the mission. I felt his choices would happen like this, and I see the logic through Dredd’s (bionic) eyes.
FULL TILT BOOGIE // BOOK TWO by Alex de Campi (w) Eduardo Ocana (a) Eva De La Cruz (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)
This took a darker twist, and it doesn’t bode well for the characters. This little bit of peace may be broken very soon. The best-laid plans don’t always work, and this looked like a last-ditch try!
THISTLEBONE // THE DULE TREE by T.C. Eglington (w) Simon Davis (a) Simon Bowland (l)
Classic horror with blood. I loved the pacing, and the final panels were chilling. This was an excellent story that keeps the legend of Thistlebone alive!
INDIGO PRIME // BLACK MONDAY by Kek-W (w) Lee Carter (a) Jim Campbell (l)
I really enjoyed reading this and the different types of art added to the story and the dynamic between the two different realities.
ROGUE TROOPER // WAR CHILD by David Barnett (w) Paul Marshall (a) Pippa Bowland (c) Jim Campbell (l)
This was an excellent story that combined some real horrors of children used in warfare with sci-fi elements. I liked the different reactions within this story—Rogue, the children, and the ID chips!
PROTEUS VEX // DEVIOUS by Mike Carroll (w) Jake Lynch (a) Jim Boswell (c) Simon Bowland (l)
I’m glad to be returning to this, and I love all the different dynamics and inter-galaxy politics. There is a lot to think about and double-dealing!
