2000 AD #1160

Judge Hershey dominates this September 1999 prog, rendered by Greg Staples in a striking cover that puts her front and center wielding an enormous, scope-mounted cannon — every inch the hardened Mega-City lawkeeper. The cover promises serious action inside, with Hershey leading the charge against Nero Narcos alongside the tantalizing announcement of "Dead End!" — the final fate of Adam Cadman in Mazeworld. It's a packed issue with John Wagner writing and Charlie Adlard on art duties, making Prog 1160 a compelling grab from 2000 AD's late-'90s lineup.
