2000 AD #1935

The cover of prog 1935 pulls no punches: a snarling, fang-bared figure is consumed by glowing green energy, dark tendrils clawing across his face and hands as he strains against some overwhelming force — a striking image by Karl Richardson that sells the tagline "Under the Influence" with real visceral intensity. This issue brings back Outlier, teasing a dangerous question about whether the Hurde have truly released their grip on Carcer. Inside, Michael Carroll and Colin MacNeil continue "Blood of Emeralds Part Two," with Chris Blythe's colors and Annie Parkhouse's lettering rounding out a reliably sharp 2000 AD package for 2015.
