2000 AD #1334

Prog 1334 of 2000 AD (April 2003) puts the V.C.s front and center, with armored soldiers — one bearing the name "SMITH" across his chest — pushing forward under a blood-red moon while more figures engage in combat above, all anchored by the bold tagline "Fatal Extraction!" Ian Gibson's cover art delivers a kinetic, battle-worn energy that suits the anthology's reputation for hard-edged sci-fi action perfectly. Inside, John Wagner and Andy Diggle continue their Judge Dredd vs. Aliens: Incubus saga, with art by Henry Flint and colors by Chris Blythe — solid creative firepower for any week's prog.
