2000 AD #1141

A battle-hardened figure dominates this Greg Staples cover for 2000 AD Prog 1141, standing amid a wall of "Dead or Alive" wanted posters — one of which bears the unmistakable helmet of Judge Dredd with a 10,000,000 credit bounty on his head. The man pinning up another poster carries a pistol at his side, his expression as cold and purposeful as the cover text promises: "Orlok is Back — the East-Meg Assassin is gunning for Dredd." This April 1999 prog also teases three new stories including Nikolai Dante in "Death Dance" and a superhero turn for Rocky and Eggy in "Super Galls," making it a genuinely packed instalment of Britain's toughest weekly anthology.
