2000 AD #528

A man in a loud checked suit cries "Oh, Hell!" as snarling, horned demons close in around him amid fire and crackling energy — while Judge Dredd himself looms watchfully in the background, suggesting the law is never far away even in the most infernal company. The teaser headline "Better the Devil You Know…?" sets a deliciously ominous tone for this week's prog, featuring Part 9 of the Judge Dredd story "Hour of the Wolf" with cover art by Robin Smith. A fine slice of British sci-fi comics from the summer of 1987, packed with the kind of pulpy drama that made 2000 AD a weekly must-read.
