2000 AD #1748

Two sharp-suited gunmen dominate this cover of 2000 AD Prog 1748 — one dark-clad figure in the foreground leveling a pistol point-blank at the reader while a red-mohawked partner behind him unleashes a shotgun blast, spent casings catching the air around them. The cover by Tiernen Trevallion crackles with kinetic energy, perfectly matching the "Weapons Hot!" banner announcing that Sinister and Dexter are back in action. Inside, John Wagner and Ben Willsher continue "Day of Chaos: Nadia Part Six," with colors by Chris Blythe and lettering by Annie Parkhouse keeping this British weekly anthology firing on all cylinders in 2011.
