2000 AD #1043

Prog 1043 of 2000 AD presents one of the Cursed Earth's less appetizing dining moments: Judge Dredd, his scarred jaw set with grim determination, clutches what the cover boldly announces as a spider sandwich — a hairy, many-legged specimen caught mid-bite. Dermot Power's cover art gives Dredd's signature helmet and eagle badge a painterly weight that makes even a grotesque roadside snack feel utterly matter-of-fact for the galaxy's toughest lawman. Inside, Henry Flint brings the art for "Dance of the Spider Queen, Part 3," written by John Wagner — and if the cover is any indication, this chapter of the Cursed Earth saga has plenty of creepy-crawly atmosphere to spare.
