2000 AD #1854

Prog 1854 of Britain's beloved weekly anthology celebrates 2000 AD's self-proclaimed role as "The Original Troublemaker — Influencing Earthlets Since 1977!" with a cover by Cliff Robinson that puts a green-skinned alien bruiser front and center, decked out in a "Borag Thungg / Zarjaz"-emblazoned denim vest loaded with badges. Looming behind him, an armored Judge Dredd looks on with characteristic steely disapproval, while 2000 AD merchandise peeks from the alien's back pocket — a cheeky nod to the galaxy's greatest comic's own legacy. Inside, Michael Carroll continues "New Tricks Part Five" with art by Paul Davidson, colors by Chris Blythe, and lettering by Annie Parkhouse.
