JUDGE DREDD // MUST TRY HARDER by T.C. Eglington (w) Boo Cook (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)
An entertaining story with the concentration on the mad things that the citizens get up to. The flashback was fun, and I enjoyed the gruesome aspects too!
STICKLEBACK // LITHE SPIRIT by Ian Edginton (w) D’Israeli (a) Rob Steen (l)
A dark Stickleback tale, with a great setup and a clever method of going through the story. I like the way it is set up, and there are some nice touches. The art style meshes well with the story and ghostly images.
YOUNG DEATH // BODY OF EVIDENCE by Kek-W (w) Anthony Williams (a) Rob Steen (l)
These tales of young Death have a thread running through them, but they work well as one-shot stories too. I like the setup and the way this plays out. Perfect for the character.
FUTURE SHOCKS // DAY 404 by Andi Ewington (w) Gary Welsh (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)
A classic Future Shock story, and there are some brilliant parts of the setup. I liked the style of the art, and the daughter aspect gave me a wry smile.
STRONTIUM DOG // THE ROYAL MESS by Karl Stock (w) Colin MacNeil (a) Jim Boswell (c) Simon Bowland (l)
An enjoyable SD story with some gunplay, mutants and the royal family! A funny/sad ending, and it works out well.
Some good stories for the whole and something for casual readers to pick up!
