2000 AD #1852

Prog 1852 of 2000 AD announces its contents with a striking, close-up cover by I. N. J. Culbard — a pale, long-fingered hand grasping at a mechanical limb or weapon fitted with a glowing red eye, set against a rain-streaked urban backdrop, all rendered in moody pinks and purples. The tagline "Crawling the Walls! Scythe Attack in Bras Num" promises tension and menace within. Inside, "New Tricks Part Three" continues with writing by Michael Carroll, art and inks by Paul Davidson, colors by Chris Blythe, and lettering by Annie Parkhouse — a solid creative team delivering sharp 2000 AD storytelling in 2013.
