2000 AD #1310

Prog 1310 of Britain's beloved 2000 AD throws you straight into the chaos with a cover teasing "Mancunian Muties on the Rampage in Sinister Dexter" — and Peter Doherty's artwork delivers exactly that, depicting a wild pack of mutant thugs bursting through shattering glass, guns raised, while two sharp-dressed gunmen hold their ground in the foreground. The contrast between the cool composure of those two protagonists and the snarling mob descending on them makes for a genuinely gripping image. Inside, John Wagner scripts "Class Project" with art, inks, colors, and letters handled by David Millgate and Tom Frame — a solid creative lineup for this September 2002 Wednesday treat.
