Well while the Megazine may not be on top form I actually think this is pretty decent.
The Dredd doesn't do a great deal for me but is fine with great art.
Armitage isn't normally my thing but this was pretty good with great art and I'm happy to see more.
DeMarco is good but needs a re-read - art - well see above.
I know the reprint hasn't landed for some but while I've not read it here as I have it all I like Hookjaw and Mark Russell might not be at his best on Dredd - which is weird given it would seem a perfect for him its not bad.
The text pieces are fine but not as good as normal for me.
Harrower Squad took a scene shift that just lost me - again re-read required I think. Art as above.
The highlight though is Devlin Waugh without a shadow of a doubt. It was just brilliant. Art is as good as all the rest of the stuff, possibly, probably the best. The story though was amazing. Something seemingly so benign and mini just had tension and a sense of impending doom just cutting all the way through it... somehow... I've no idea now but it was there and just set up... whatevers to come superbly. Loved it.
So while some needs a re-read nothing was bad and one story was absolute top draw.
Just need me Prog now. Everytime my sub is about to renew always seen to have a problem and that appears to be the case again - sigh - Still this is the Meg thread and that all good.
