2000 AD #1352

The cover of 2000 AD Prog 1352 (August 2003) makes a bold first impression: Judge Dredd stands below a massive, spiked, muscular figure suspended upside-down — blood trailing from a vicious wound — while the tagline "Keep It Zipped, Creep! Dredd Gives the Brit-Cit Cults a Kicking" sets the confrontational tone perfectly. Cliff Robinson's cover pencils and inks deliver a striking composition that puts Dredd's steely resolve front and center against a genuinely imposing threat. Inside, John Wagner writes and Charlie Adlard illustrates "The Satanist Part 3," with colors by Chris Blythe and letters by Tom Frame — a strong creative lineup for any prog on the shelf.
