Judging by my shelves, it’d be a toss-up between Dark Horse, Titan  and Image. I’d say Dark Horse edges it.

Now this Dredd could easily been in the Regened issue and ticked all the boxes.

I'm all for Tharg grabbing groats from any passing younglings, but this issue misfired on every available possibility. The Future Shock was to only thing with a bit umph, but it was dangerously close to the old troupe of being stuck in a video game/computer.
Dredd had so many plot holes there wasn't much story left, the ' open gate' seemed a lazy shortcut, oh and Harrypotter High just seemed a pale flashback to Lord Snooty but with prettier art.

I can't help but think some sprog picks up this and the following week picks it up again only to get HOPE in all its S&M glory.

Surprise Saturday Prog for me, a first in Cal-Hab from a long time.

Dredd off to a good start, Brink on the brink of major breakthrough, skipped Skip its increasingly looking like something from those endless shelves of manga in FP to me. Six/Dex in the here we go again loop.

If it weren't for advertising, politics, and law, there'd be nothing for contemporary sophists to do.

That's a fallacious argument

The damage they do perhaps?  obvs the ads work or they wouldn't be doing so many, and gambling especially online, is a horrible addiction: whole lives, families and communities destroyed.

I watch very little that has ads, if I do they are muted, I know nothing of this Daisy you speak of for instance.

I can guess how someone got to flaffing about with a mirror and a record sleeve, still I'm convinced now.

Helltrekkers is fine in a grisley death of the week kind of way but it isn't in the same league as Stickleback
