2000 AD #268

A man braces inside a vehicle cockpit as gunfire erupts around him — "BLAM! BLAM!" and "CRAASSH!" punctuate a scene of frantic, close-quarters chaos, with a looming mechanical figure bearing down from above. Ian Gibson's linework on this June 1982 prog crackles with kinetic energy, and the cover teaser "Heavy Metal Attack — See Robo-Hunter!" promises that the Filby Case is escalating fast. A fine slice of early-eighties British comics at their most breathlessly action-packed.
