2000 AD #1903

Three unsettling figures dominate D'Israeli's striking monochrome cover for this 2014 issue of 2000 AD — a wild-haired, mask-faced figure on the left looms large alongside a hooded presence on the right, while a smaller, hollow-eyed figure stands between them beneath an ominous molecular or chemical diagram floating in the background. The tagline "Sign of the Times — The Bad Pennies Have Designs on London" gives the imagery a genuinely chilling edge. Inside, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra continue "Block Judge Part Four," a reliable creative pairing that never disappoints.
