Stevie has always suspected that after seeing Kek-W turn sow's ears into silk.purses with Canon Fodder and The Grudge Father, Tharg handed the scriptdroid Millar's Earthside 8 pitch for Billy Whisper --about a boy who becomes President of the USA-- & told him, "See if you can do with this." Kid Cyborg is a road movie primer to the Illuminati for teeny tots that wouldn't have looked out of place in 80s Wildcat or 80s Eagle.

Cosmic Comic has all the episodes from the Prog - I think that's all of it isn't it?
There was a Special Effects[/] two-pager written and drawn by Kev that was in the 2000AD Annual 1982 that has never been reprinted.

If SNR had been drawn by Kev O'Neill or Tom Patterson, for instance, TC would be blue with envy.

Was never a fan of either Mercy Heights or Rogue Trooper, so The Buster'd Earth of Sleeze 'n' Ryder it is.

Upon reading the final episode of Dash Decent in the prog, Little Stevie took pen to foolscap page & wrote the script for the opening episode of a sequel entitled Judge Decent.
So Dash Decent it is.
