2000 AD #1925

A brooding, weathered warrior dominates this 2015 prog of 2000 AD, his scarred and battle-worn face filling the cover in a richly painted close-up by Simon Davis — the tagline asks whether Slaine can halt the Drunes' sacrifices before they unleash the Primordial. Inside, Rob Williams and Henry Flint continue "Enceladus: New Life Part Two," promising more of the boundary-pushing science fiction that keeps this anthology at the forefront of British comics. A striking package that captures the grim intensity 2000 AD does so well.
