2000 AD #1049

Judge Dredd stands armed and ready in the foreground, dwarfed by the looming mechanical-green visage of Dr. Bolt behind him — a cover by Trevor Hairsine that makes the stakes of the "Double Trouble" finale feel genuinely imposing. This July 1997 prog promises a double-length Judge Dredd showdown against both Dune Sharks and Dr. Bolt, alongside final episodes of Sláine and Anderson, PSI. The teaser about Nikolai Dante's parentage is the cherry on top of what looks like an exceptionally packed issue of 2000 AD.
