2000 AD #1691

Prog 1691 of 2000 AD announces itself with raw, visceral energy — Clint Langley's cover depicts a massive, blood-soaked demonic creature mid-lunge, its gaping maw bristling with jagged teeth, glowing red eyes, and blue-tinged flesh that looks torn straight from some aquatic nightmare, all tied to the cover's bold promise of "Demonic Forces Unleashed in The Red Seas." Inside, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra (with inks by Hector Ezquerra and colors by Carlos Ezquerra) continue "Tour of Duty: Mega-City Justice" into its fifth chapter, promising more of the gritty, hard-edged storytelling that makes 2000 AD essential weekly reading. A genuinely striking issue from 2010 that wears its horror credentials right on the cover.
