After last weeks Prog of mainly jollity this was one a bit dark.
Dredd - Great start to this series, establishing Asher as a sympathetic character and Dredd as a right git. This is a story I'm surprised we haven't seen told before. Does Niemand mainly write from the cits point of view or am I imagining this? Tremendous art from Tom Foster.
Thistlebone - Feels like this is starting to pick up. For an episode that was 90% two people talking in a green room, still holds your attention. Something I like about this story is that we still have no idea what is going on whatsover and it's creepy as. I didn't realise until my second readthrough that the badger has binding running through it's ribs that someone's obviously put there.
One thing I wasn't sure on was why Seema is running out of the hospital feeling sick
before she encounters this mustelid horror?
Visions of Deadworld - What a completely fucked up little story that was! I really love Deadworld, a thrill so grim by wife has stopped even looking at the pictures, and I'm especially into these little short form stories where the horror is more of an intense hit and the worldbuilding is sprinkled about. Fire being characterised as a bit.. fiery works for me. The thought of this one having a follow up is almost too awful to contemplate (in a good way)
Terror Tales - These stories are hit and miss and for me this one was a miss. Nothing especially wrong with it, just didn't click for me. Nice to see a new John Tomlinson credit though.
Feral and Foe - Played 100% for laughs this week, Feral and Foe absolutely rules. Art and story are just top notch - it reminds me a little of when SinDex was still fun.
My theory: Gyre and Krodgun have also been bodyswapped which is why Krodgun keeps saying what a top dude he is.
