2000 AD #2358

Prog 2358 of Britain's beloved weekly anthology puts refugees Constance and Palamon front and center, the two figures sprinting desperately toward the viewer as an enormous, snarling demon — all gnashing teeth, glowing eyes, and writhing purple tendrils — looms massive behind them. The tagline "The Road to Hell" says it all about the peril these two are facing, and the cover's vivid teal-and-violet color clash gives the whole image a genuinely unsettling energy. A fine snapshot of 2000 AD doing what it does best: gripping genre storytelling announced in a single arresting image.
