2000 AD #1429

Prog 1429 of 2000 AD arrives in March 2005 with a striking cover by Jim Murray, depicting Nikolai Dante in his distinctive red-and-gold uniform surrounded and grappled by a swarm of sharp-clawed reptilian demons — the tagline "Swarming Ground! Dante faces his demons" setting the tone perfectly. Inside, the anthology delivers five strips including Judge Dredd, Second City Blues, Tiger Sun, Sinister Dexter, and Nikolai Dante, with Gordon Rennie and Ian Gibson handling art, inks, colors, and lettering duties on their strip. A fine weekly slice of British comics at their adventurous best.
