2000 AD #719

Marking its "14 Zarjaz Years," this 1991 prog from Fleetway sends a bold visual statement with Zac Sandler's densely packed cover — a massive green alien face dominates the foreground, its golden eyes and circular cranial implant staring out from a swirling mosaic of grotesque, colorful creatures and faces that press in from every direction. It's a genuinely striking piece of artwork, the kind of controlled chaos that made 2000 AD covers appointment viewing for British comics fans. Inside, Garth Ennis continues "Death Aid" with art by C. Ezquerra, a reliable creative pairing for fans of the anthology's harder-edged storytelling.
