2000 AD #421

Prog 421 of 2000 AD hits June 1985 with a cover that throws Judge Dredd right into the deep end — surrounded on all sides by a brawling, weapon-wielding mob of Mega-City toughs, he coolly asks "Okay, Brisco — what do I do now?" as wrenches, knives, and clubs fly around him. It's a wonderfully chaotic scene rendered with sharp energy by Ron Smith, perfectly capturing the "Cadet in Control" examination special framing bannered across the top. Inside, the anthology continues with "Four Dark Judges, Part 6: City of the Dead," with Grant and Grover writing alongside Brett Ewins — a strong lineup for any Dredd fan's collection.
