2000 AD #550

Prog 550 of Britain's beloved weekly anthology arrives dated 28 November 1987, spotlighting a Strontium Dog cover by Carlos Ezquerra that crackles with tension: a white-coated medic lunges forward declaring "It's time for your shots, Mr Scully!" while a desperate patient fires point-blank and a massive mutant fist fills the foreground, the whole scene bursting with Ezquerra's kinetic energy. Inside, Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell deliver "Epilogue: Late Results," promising the kind of sharp storytelling that made 2000 AD essential reading that year. A strong Prog all round, with Judge Dredd along for the ride as well.
