2000 AD #2188

Synopsis

If there’s one word that has defined the last four months it has to be ‘lockdown’, with any humes confined to their domiciles to arrest the spread of Covid-19. Almost all, I’m sure, are looking forward to the day that they can safely go out — but what if you could just keep going, Terrans? Beyond this planet, beyond the galaxy, deeper and deeper into outer space, leaving Earth far behind — that’s the premise of the new series that starts this prog from Dan Abnett and Mark Harrison, which attempts to capture the sense of wonder of travelling the universe. Photo-journalist Cyd Finlea is snapping the majestic sights of the cosmos as she goes further into the unknown… into The Out! There’s more escapist excitement for you Squaxx this week too with the release of 2020’s 2000 AD Sci- Fi Special, which celebrates twenty years of Rebellion publishing the Galaxy’s Greatest. This hundred-page beast combines classic cuts from the last two decades with all-new stories that sees characters from the Rebellion era face off against those created before the millennium. Thus Captain Jack Dancer and his crew of The Red Seas battle the giant insects of Ant Wars, Dredd meets Zombo, and more. Don’t miss it!
