2000 AD #366

Prog 366 of 2000 AD hits hard with a Carlos Ezquerra cover that puts a heavily armed, battle-worn figure front and center — crouched low, weapons bristling, with gun barrels looming in from the left and the words "Yer a dead dog, Alpha!" cutting across the bottom in a sharp speech bubble. The circular yellow backdrop and "Escape 2000" lettering give the whole image a gritty, urgent energy entirely in keeping with the anthology's 1984 peak form. Inside, Pat Mills and M. Belardinelli continue "Dragonheist" in its sixth chapter, promising more of the bold storytelling that made this weekly a fixture on every British newsstand.
