2000 AD #1064

Prog 1064 of 2000 AD (October 14, 1997) promises an action-packed anthology with two all-new complete stories — and the cover delivers an immediate jolt of tension, pairing a sharp-suited figure leveling a pistol directly at the viewer with a wild-haired, pallid companion lurking menacingly behind him. Greg Staples's painted cover work gives both characters a brooding, cinematic weight that perfectly sets the mood for the "New Kills!" promise of Sinister Dexter and the mind-bending "New Chills!" of Vector 13. As a bonus, readers in 1997 also got an exclusive first look at the film A Life Less Ordinary tucked inside.
