JUDGE DREDD // CLIMATE CRISIS by Rob Williams & Ned Hartley (w) PJ Holden (a) Jack Davies (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)
An excellent conclusion to the story arc, and it leaves the characters with many options going forward to be re-used (something that you don’t often get with Dredd.) I loved the reactions and the commentary behind it all.
BRINK // THE CALL OF THE VOID by Dan Abnett (w) INJ Culbard (a) Simon Bowland (l)
Building up the storyline well, with a good chat at the gun range - I wonder if the new guns will have a role to play? I like the introductions and Bridgi’s reaction to the language. It makes me wonder how deep the roots go…
THARG’S 3RILLERS // WHO IS ADRIAN APOLLO? by Liam Johnson (w) Steven Austin (a) John Charles (c) Rob Steen (l)
Completing the story of this three-part adventure. It has some interesting twists and clever sci-fi moments. It even answers the question in the title (sort of!)
FUTURE SHOCKS // LUCKY NUMBER SIX by Andi Ewington (w) John McCrea (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)
A smart story, although I think the ending was telegraphed. I like the old-school style of the story and the artwork and the final panels were pretty striking.
THE DISCARDED by Peter Milligan (w) Kieran McKeown (a) Jim Boswell (c) Simon Bowland (l)
A satisfying conlcusion with the possibility of a future adventure in this world. I like the realisation of what has happened and the close call - it does finish off well and may be good to leave to the imagination as to what happens next!
