2000 AD #2272

A surging crowd of furious protestors fills this "Future Tense!" cover of 2000 AD Prog 2272, their signs demanding justice — "HABSEC MUST ANSWER," "WE WANT JUSTICE NOW!" — plastered across a neon-soaked cityscape that feels unmistakably 2000 AD. Front and center, a bald figure with a distinctive circular marking on his forehead leads the charge, mouth open in a raw, full-throated shout that pulls the eye straight into the chaos. It's a striking, politically charged image that captures the anthology's long tradition of science fiction with something urgent and human at its core.
