2000 AD #928

Celebrating 18 "zarjaz" years of British comics brilliance, 2000 AD Prog 928 (February 1995) marks the milestone in style with a striking cover by Dermot Power depicting two Starfleet officers in red and blue uniforms standing before a vast starfield, the unmistakable saucer-and-nacelle silhouette of a starship looming behind them — tied to an exciting contest offering 100 free tickets to Star Trek: Generations. Inside, the anthology delivers a full roster of strips including Judge Dredd, Harlem Heroes, Finn, Rogue Trooper, and Armoured Gideon, with "Crusade, Part 1" written by Grant Morrison and Mark Millar and fully illustrated by Mick Austin, with lettering from Tom Frame. It's a packed prog that captures exactly why 2000 AD remained a cornerstone of UK comics culture well into the mid-nineties.
