2000 AD #193

Prog 193 of 2000 AD kicks off 1981 in style, dated 3 January and proudly bearing the Eagle Award for Britain's Top Comic Character — Judge Dredd himself. Mike McMahon's cover renders the helmeted lawman front and centre, gun levelled at the reader, eagle emblem gleaming on his chest, while a graveyard of wrecked and overgrown vehicles looms behind him in the ruins of Mega-City One. Inside, Alan Grant and Ezquerra continue "The Doc Quince Case" with Part 4, lettered by Tony Jacob — solid creative firepower to carry the anthology into the new year.
