2000 AD #400

Prog 400 of 2000 AD marks a milestone issue dated 12 January 1985, and Carlos Ezquerra's cover delivers an aerial dogfight that practically leaps off the newsprint — two battered aircraft collide in a thunderous "WHAAM!" of fire and debris, with a third craft banking hard in the background. The headline teases "Dogfight — The Rat Bites Back!" pointing to the latest chapter of The Stainless Steel Rat for President, brought to life by writer Harry Harrison, co-writer K. Gosnell, and Ezquerra pulling double duty on both pencils and inks. A landmark prog number with kinetic cover energy to match.
