Phobia

Emerging from the pages of 2000 AD #661 in 1990, Phobia is a Fleetway creation born at the hands of the legendary John Wagner and artist Colin MacNeil — a pairing that knew how to conjure something genuinely unsettling for the grim world of Mega-City One. Over nearly three decades of appearances across 2000 AD and the Judge Dredd Megazine, this character carved out a lasting niche in one of British comics' most beloved universes, sharing the page with titans like Judge Dredd, Psi Judge Anderson, and even the terrifying Judge Death. With 46 catalog appearances spanning 1990 to 2017, Phobia is no throwaway villain or background fixture — this is a character with real staying power in a universe that doesn't suffer the unremarkable gladly, and well worth seeking out for any fan who loves their comics with a dark, distinctly British edge.
