Fantastic prog, absolutely fantastic.
Dredd was compelling, good to see the various long-running threads pulling together, plus added
Sensitive Klegg. Lovely colours from Blythe too. My only niggle was Smiley's list of Dredd's "saving the City" moments - not sure why the Cursed Earth mission is on there (and not just because he killed everyone in MC2 a dozen years later...), and perhaps it might have been constructive to instead mention something like the Texas City takeover, in the cause of bringing the various writers' sub-universes into one continuity. Still a gripping episode though.
Brink almost defies sensible comment. The sense of tension, of claustrophobia, the dread instilled by eating nudge-laced food... I don't know how those lads inject all that into an episode that's essentially about dusting, but I'm in awe. Amazingly good, thrill of the week.
Skip Tracer: what's that now, has this strip just graduated from competent but forgettable entertainment to something a lot more engaging? I do believe it has, justifying this reader's strained patience. Pray continue, gentlemen.
Fiends: Doesn't mess around this one! Enjoyably old-school in its pacing, and simply glorious to look at. One minor quibble: the introduction of the zombies/ghouls took place in one corner of a very small panel: I appreciate that there's a lot going on in that page, but perhaps this important reveal could have been given more space. Turning out to be a very worthy prequel to a series I've always enjoyed.
Kingdom: Gloriously action-packed episode mixes things up yet again.
Kingdom has never put a foot wrong. More than interested to see what else South America has to throw at Gene.
