2000 AD #1346

This June 2003 prog from 2000 AD spotlights the Sinister Dexter story arc with a striking Simon Davis cover — two armed figures loom menacingly over a wide-eyed, terrified man caught squarely between their guns. Davis's painterly watercolor style gives the trio an unsettling intensity, with the green-skinned, sunglasses-wearing figure behind adding a particularly ghoulish edge to the standoff. John Wagner and John Burns deliver the fifth chapter of "Revenge of the Chief Judge's Man," and if the cover is any indication, the pressure is well and truly on.
