2000 AD #499

From the depths of a torchlit cavern, a monstrous creature grips a severed head while gaunt, skull-faced figures lurk in the rocky background — all beneath the chilling tagline "Annwn Tales: Heads You Lose..." and the stark question "Slain?" This December 1986 prog features Part 7 of "The Spoils of Annwn," with cover art by Mike Collins and Mark Farmer conjuring a genuinely unsettling mythological underworld atmosphere. A striking installment of 2000 AD's darker fantasy work, brought to life with raw, visceral line work that makes the most of the anthology's willingness to go somewhere genuinely strange.
