2000 AD #498

Judge Dredd has a wild-haired perp firmly in his grip on the cover of 2000 AD Prog 498, dated 29 November 1986 — the Law's iron hand very much in evidence as the struggling criminal kicks helplessly against Dredd's vice-like hold. Robin Smith's cover art delivers a punchy, dynamic image that perfectly matches the tagline "Watch Out… There's a Perp Ab'ut!" alongside the teasing promise of "Past Tense!" Inside, Pat Mills scripts "The Spoils of Annwn, Part 6," with art by Collins, inks by Farmer, and lettering by Steve Potter — a solid creative team keeping this weekly anthology firing on all cylinders.
