2000 AD #917

Prog 917 of 2000 AD hits hard with a cover by Mick Austin depicting a menacing armored figure in green and red bringing a spiked weapon down on a downed, muscular man in sunglasses — the tagline "End of the Line for Red Razors?" making the stakes plain. The inset photo teasing an exclusive Judge Dredd movie feature adds a nice real-world bonus to this December 1994 issue. Inside, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra — handling writing, art, inking, and coloring together — continue "The Candidates" in what promises to be a punishing second installment.
