2000 AD #1726

Prog 1726 of 2000 AD plunges straight into a "Mega-City Mash-Up!" as Judge Dredd, helmeted and grimly determined, finds himself engulfed by the writhing tentacles of a massive, bulbous alien creature — the so-called Couch Potato — while laser fire sparks between them in a genuinely visceral struggle. The cover, pencilled and inked by Cliff Robinson, crackles with dense, tactile detail as those yellowish-green tendrils wrap tight around Dredd's armored form, making you wonder whether the law will prevail. Inside, "Persistent Vegetative State Part One" kicks off what promises to be a gripping new chapter for Mega-City One's toughest lawman.
