2000 AD #544

Prog 544 of 2000 AD arrives with a cover by Steve Dillon that sets an urgent, chaotic tone — a silver-haired figure in a black-and-yellow lightning-bolt costume dominates the foreground, his expression fierce, while behind him panicked civilians scatter amid smoke and destruction near what appears to be a London Underground station. The bold header "Masterman: A Blast from the Past!" and the "Zenith" logo anchor the scene, promising real turbulence inside. Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell bring "Storm Warnings" to the anthology's pages — a fine reason to grab this October 1987 issue off the spinner rack.
