2000 AD #2200

Prog 2200 marks a milestone for the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, celebrating with an all-new story lineup and a cover by Tim Napper that announces their arrival with gleeful menace — a massive, bulbous-headed creature dominates the foreground, its unsettling green eyes staring you down while a chaotic sprawl of alien figures, wrecked vehicles, and strange machinery fills the world behind it. The tagline promises you're heading "beyond the frontiers of future fiction," and with interior thrills including "Carry the Nine Part One" — written by Rob Williams and Arthur Wyatt, drawn and colored by Boo Cook, lettered by Annie Parkhouse — Rebellion is clearly swinging for the fences on this landmark issue. If you've ever wanted a jumping-on point for 2000 AD, the comic itself is practically daring you to open it.
