2000 AD #691

Four young judges-in-training fan out across a grim urban street, weapons raised, while an enormous monstrous face — all teeth and menace — looms from the darkness behind them in Mick Austin's cover for 2000 AD Prog 691. The tagline "Young Guns: Junior Judges in the Firing Line!" sets the stakes perfectly, and with John Wagner writing and Carlos Ezquerra handling art, inks, and colors on the interior "Necropolis" storyline, this August 1990 issue delivers a fine combination of fresh-faced urgency and seasoned Mega-City craft. A great snapshot of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic at full throttle.
