2000 AD #739

Prog 739 of 2000 AD delivers a kinetic cover by Cliff Robinson, showing Judge Dredd in full mid-air combat, delivering a fierce strike against an armored opponent while laser fire sparks on impact. Looming in the foreground are the unsettled faces of several civilians — their wide-eyed, apprehensive expressions sharply contrasting with Dredd's relentless aggression. The cover's bold taunts — "Shocking!" "Disgusting!" "Disgraceful!" — tease the "Watchdogs" story inside, promising the kind of no-holds-barred Mega-City justice that made 2000 AD essential weekly reading in 1991.
