2000 AD #647

Prog 647 of 2000 AD arrives in October 1989 with a striking cover by Steve Cook — a sharp-featured blonde woman in blue-and-yellow Judge's uniform dives toward the viewer from above, her green-gloved hands reaching forward, while a pair of enormous, unsettling eyes loom behind her in the shadows. The tagline "PROPHESEYES" ties the imagery together with an eerie pun that sets a memorably tense mood. Inside, Alan Grant and artist/inker David Roach continue "The Prophet" with Part 3, promising the kind of stylish, thought-provoking storytelling that made late-'80s 2000 AD such compelling weekly reading.
